Limited issuance of residence permit cards

Details
12 Jan 2021

Residence permit cards will only be issued to individuals who can proof that they need them for travelling abroad. Valid travel records, e.g. airline tickets, must be sent to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 

Instead of residence permit cards, applicants will receive a letter of confirmation from the Directorate, confirming the issuance of a residence permit, including information on the permit’s validity and the applicant’s right to work.

The Directorate of Immigration sincerely apologizes for the inconvenience that this may cause.
