MEU3 change of address

Post by MacManiac »

I cannot believe, in the third decade of the 21st century, that we have to appear at Immigration in person to change our address for the MEU3. My wife is no longer able to travel to Paphos for anything but medical treatment. Does anyone know if there is a workaround?

We moved and did not change our address with immigration, but we did change it with GESY.
Your MEU3 ID number is the same as your GESY number, I wouldn't worry about it.

I have moved several times and each time been told it is not necessary to update my residential address with the Immigration Department.

In every other country I have taken up residence it has been a formality to update the authorities with the current address.

No wonder Cyprus has no idea how many people live here, let alone where they are actually located.

With regards to GESY, if you continue to see the same Personal Doctor then you can update your address (and other information) on the Beneficiary Portal).
If you are intending to change to a different Personal Doctor you go first to the new one to make sure you can be added to their list. If you can, then you have to go to your current Personal Doctor and ask to be deregistered. You will then get an email from GESY informing you that you can now go ahead and register with the new Personal Doctor. You cannot be registered with two Personal Doctors at the same time.

Thanks for all the above. We have changed addresses through the GESY portal already.
