December / New Year’s immigration office closures. 

Please be aware that immigration offices around the country will be closed on these dates (other than usual weekend closures). 

Thursday 5th December 

Tuesday 10th December 

Saturday 28th December until Wednesday 1st January. 

Offices will re-open on Thursday 2nd January. 

Many offices are busy following a closure day and will be super busy after a 5 day closure. 

If you can avoid going on those days it’s probably best to do so. 

Office closures do not affect airports, nor land or sea borders.
