I had to queue from 08.50 to 11.00 just to have a number for tourist renewal. Retirement waited even longer. Apparently you have to go veery early like 04.00 to 06.00 am to get a ticket... Good luck!!

We we're scolded this morning for being there early and were then told they will no longer open the doors before 7:00 am, as of tomorrow. They kicked out everyone who didn't have a queue at 7:30, locked the door, and told them to come back in the afternoon. I was there at 7:00 am. It was a mess.
