Re: Appointment for MEU 3
If you have an MEU1, you need not worry, also be aware that if you have a UK passport, after Jan 21, you will no longer be a ‘Member of the European Union, it may require an alternative piece of paper.
Re: Appointment for MEU 3
This is the first I have heard about anything needed to go with your passport... Although I do realise you say 'may require'

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
The number we have is also 26806200. I suggest you go in to make an appointment, remembering to take your passport and MEU1. We have always found them helpful. You may not get an appoint till early next year but you should be able to travel with your passport and MEU1 or MEU3. We always carry these with our passports anyway.

Les, If it was me, I would go to immigration and ask them for an appointment.
A friend of mine, also needs to get his MEU3, did that last week and has an appointment there next week.
Ludlow Boy, if you wanted to live in Cyprus and have lived in Cyprus for more than 5 yrs, you should apply for the MEU 3. The MEU 1 is a registration certificate, the MEU 3 is a residents permit. They sound similar, but they aren't.

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
The MEU1 is a temporary residence certificate. It is as good as the MEU3 and covers you for the first five years, at which point you change it to an MEU3.Kili01 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 11, 2020 4:59 pm Les, If it was me, I would go to immigration and ask them for an appointment.

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
People often say they are the same thing, but they are not. A MEU1 lapses if you are out of Cyprus for 6 months. A MEU3 doesn't lapse until an absence of 5 years. Certain government subsidies are only available to MEU3 holders. You can be expelled from Cyprus fairly easily if you have a MEU1, whereas you have to do something very serious to get expelled if you have a MEU3. I suspect there are others I am unaware of.
Re: Appointment for MEU 3
Why do you think, immigration scan your passport when entering /leaving a country?
For all those who cant be bothered to apply for the necessary documents, for one reason or another,
then be prepared for a long wait in immigration, when you are flagged up in a couple of months time, for being dodgy,

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
They know more than the dates you have entered or left the country. My passport was stolen about three years ago and every time I travel they question me about it!

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
I believe an Meu3 lapses after 2 years away from Cyprus

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
I shouldn't think so, Jeba. These days information stored on computers it's easier for immigration officers to access such important information. Anyway, as long as those who are living here abide by the rules and get the correct proof of resident status here as we have been repeatably told to, immigration formalities shouldn't be a problem.
What may be more of a problem for us Brits,is that when traveling to other EU countries, we will not be able to use the EU channels when queuing at immigration on arrival at the foreign airport. We will be queuing with those from the rest of the world instead which may be a longer and time consuming experience!

Re: Appointment for MEU 3
Now I got curious and googled. Passenger data are stored for 5 years but can only be accessed
(source: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/worl ... 22023.html). I doubt that checking your residence status is a reason.if a serious crime is suspected, such as human and drug trafficking, child sexual exploitation or money laundering as well as terrorism.
