• ADVICE •
- Be familiar with the location before you come. So you wont waste time finding address
- Arrive early! Around 10am I think they stop people coming
- Get your documents above ready (even though photocopy machines and ID photo service are available on 2nd floor, see pictures)
- Bring stationary to make your life easier and just in case (pen, glue, pen corrector)
- Toilet car (don’t know the term) is available but so tiny and not comfortable
- The waiting time is around 4 hours (in my case) before you have to submit documents. You might want to prepare for this length of time especially if you bring children with you (water, food, power bank, etc)
