HOW TO COME TO NORTH CYPRUS 

By Plane
Flights to Northern Cyprus are conducted via Turkey.  Students should obtain a transit visa to Turkey from the nearest Turkish Embassy.  However, students located close to Islamabad – Pakistan; Baku – Azerbaijan and Abu-Dhabi – UAE can obtain a clearance document from TRNC Representative that will help to enter TRNC. Also students must have an original copy of the Acceptance Letter issued and send by the university. 

Students can do their flight booking as transit passengers from Istanbul.  Providing that students do not leave transit region in Turkey, then no entry visa to Turkey will be required.

The final destination of arrival should be Ercan Airport located 10 km away from the capital of Cyprus – Lefkosa (Nicosia).
