Hi guys, I'm specially dedicating this thread to all who wish to migrate to North Cyprus either for education or work.
In this thread, I will try as much as possible to highlight all you need in order to move to this little Island

Alright ...

following

Turkish Republic of North Cyprus is a state that comprises of the northeastern part of the Cyprus Island. The state is only recognised by Turkey but is considered to be part of Republic of Cyprus by the international community.
This being the case, all visa procedure is overseen by Turkey in the Turkish embassy Abuja.

There are three main ways in which you can travel to Kibris (Cyprus)
1. Tourist and business visa: this island is a tourist zone that experiences the influx of tourist from all over the world especially during the summer period.
First you need to apply for visa with documents showing your intention and lodging arrangements; these include the hotel you are to stay, the tourist agency (if any) and a bank statement detailing that you can sponsor yourself.

2. Work visa: there is no place that job is reserved in the world. To get one, you have to look out for opportunities. If can have a company hire you online, they can help process your work visa into TRNC

3. Student visa: people do come to the island for studies. Actually international students make up to 40% of the population. The first thing you have to do is to gain admission into any of the prestigious schools. With the admission letter, a TRNC visa is a straight forward process.

So which ever way you want to use in coming to the Island, early preparation is the key because delay can occur especially in the embassy.

I will be dropping more tips on the ways to migrate to Cyprus, but in the meantime, feel free to comment and ask any question you have.

Student visa is a type of visa that is granted to students who wish to study in TRNC. Actually, you are giving three months visa with a 3 days Turkish transit visa. When you arrive, you have 90 days to apply and get a resident permit.
The process is actually a pretty straightforward one, you have to apply for admission into any of the school in TRNC, but to avoid story, an accredited school is better

Peterchima:

Yes sir, admission is already ongoing. You need to forward your credentials to CIU for evaluation and subsequent admission

The cost of living in Cyprus is OK but not cheap oo. You can get a room of 100 pounds that you can share with someone.
It is possible to combine both if you are doing your masters or PHD program, but there is no place where job is lying around and waiting for you. Also, during the breaks like the 3 months long summer holiday, you can look for a side hustle

As I said before, there is no job lying around and anywhere for you to come and fill in. It all depends on connection. Knowing Turkish language is also an added advantage

how can one renew passport while in Turkey

If you are in Ankara Turkey, just walk into the Nigerian embassy there. They will recapture your image and fingerprint. Then you pay them 106 dollars.
For TRNC, the embassy staff go there once in 4 months. Meet them, you will be recaptured, then pay 106 dollars as well. Your new passport will be returned when next they come.

I hope it helps?

I will try and elaborate more on the student visa. I have gotten many messages seeking for clarification

How much is tuition fee?

This island has different affiliation from any angle you look at it. As a Turkish, it is an independent country under their protection; from the Greek Cypriot angle, it is part of their land that is occupied by the Turkish military; while the rest of the world sees it as an island occupied illegally by Turkey.

No matter the way you look at it, it is still a travel destination and a cheap place for studies too. School fees in TRNC cost around 3000 euros a year with the cost of living around 200 pounds a month. Oh, that’s right; the country accepts different currency for different purposes. For instance, school fees are paid in euros or dollars, house rent is paid in pounds, while you get paid in Turkish lira for working. Purchases are made in Turkish lira too.

There are many universities in TRNC (CIU, EMU, GAU, etc) and to gain admission into any of them, you need to submit your application online or through many of their recruiters. The required documents are; statement of result, transcript, O level certificate, international passport data page and a passport photo. After evaluation which takes 3 to 12 days, a conditional admission letter is issued with the unconditional admission letter following after you pay the initial school fees deposit ranging from 1500 to 1000 euros depending on the school.

After the admission, you have to log in to the website of the Turkish embassy to complete an online visa application form and choose a date for submission of documents.

The following are required for such:
• Conditional admission letter
• Unconditional admission letter
• Receipt of payment of the initial deposit
• International passport
• Two passport photograph
• O level certificate
• WEAC/NECO Scratch card
• Statement of result
• NYSC discharge certificate
• Statement of account of a sponsor (should contain at least a million naira or above) and sponsorship letter • Flight reservation (Turkish airline preferably)
N.B. All school certificates are to be authenticated by the ministry of education first. Statement of result and NYSC discharge certificate are for masters.

The documents can either be submitted to Mzvize or at the embassy with 115 dollars for both travel insurance and application processing fee.

Your visa should be ready after a week of submission, though it may take longer.

I just returned from turkey few moments ago and I want to advice Nigerians to stop traveling to turkey and Cyprus for so called greener pastures bc there are no jobs in these countries for blacks, maximum salary for sales person in a shop or boutique is 500 lira which is about $100 which is not enough for your feeding and accommodation. I travel to turkey a lot bc I import bulletproof doors, sofa, baby wipes and diapers from there which I resell in Ghana and Nigeria so I know what am talking about.

The country is good for tourism and business but not a place to hustle as there are no high paying jobs there like in Western Europe and USA. I am saying these bc most times Nigerians will say you don’t want me to prosper that’s why u no wan make we travel but that same person will call you in few months or years time to beg for airfare to come back, one guy left his iron rod business in port Harcourt to make big bucks in turkey he is now begging for airfare to come back.

It’s ok to travel but make sure you know these things. I met several Ghanaians and Nigerians that were told jobs in turkey pay $2,000 monthly but when they got there they discovered it was all lies, most African girls there are doing prostitution. THERE ARE NO JOBS TURKEY

Is anybody stopping you from traveling overseas?
The advise is for wise men to learn one or two things

How true is this Silensa? Cos my brother have gotten an admission to one of the school in Turkey?

Sorry for the absence.
Many things have happened since I was here last.
Let me address what Mr. Iykebethany pointed out.

First Turkey and TRNC are best for tourism as there are many tourist attractions and monuments there. Tourism is one of their main sources of revenue especially for TRNC.

That being said, education comes next. Though not cheap when compared to western or eastern Europe, education is affordable there as I highlighted. Some cheap schools exits that accept around 3000 dollars or less for full program, but there are other expensive one's like the popular ones.

For accommodation, a room cost around 100 to 200 pounds a month but you can share if you want and there are cheaper ones if you know where or how to look.

To the main point, many persons who travel out of Nigeria is for hustling purposes. You should know that there are no white-collar jobs there for Africans unless you are in the educational sector as a teacher or assistant lecturer.

People survive there doing menial jobs like dish washing, chefs etc. Construction work is easy to get because there are many new buildings everyday. Apart from this, other hustle like bureau d change, buying and selling, agent/service work exist.

As for payment, I'm still wondering the type of job that you will be paid 500 Turkish lira a month cos I haven't seen. Even people that are paid minimum of 50 Turkish lira per day do half day job.

The highest pay comes from construction work. Daily pay ranges from 100 to 150 Turkish lira a day. While restaurant works pay between 50 to 100 Turkish lira a day.

Lest I forget, there are industries there too that employ Africans but the pay is still within 100 Turkish lira or thereabout

If you have a sponsor then you will enjoy there, but if you come for hustling purpose, then you must work too.

In conclusion, anyone that tells you that jobs here pay around 2000 dollars, just send the person your account number to credit you with a little. There are very few highly competitive jobs here that pay in foreign currency and most of them are not for foreigners

Drop your comment and questions, let's sort it out together.

My number and email is open if you want to get in touch.

Is the visa easier to get ? I just want to get my masters. Not going there for any hustling.

I don’t want to be paying 1500$ for visa oh.
