Immigration and Civil Status Department
Monday 31st August 2020
The website of the Department of Immigration and Civil Status will, as from Monday 31st August 2020 have a new look thanks to nearly five months of close working collaboration with a local web designer.
The Department has found it necessary to carry out the upgrade, mindful of the requirements which had to be inserted in view of the Coronavirus pandemic.
We have paid much attention to your feedback which has been taken into consideration in the design concept. We hope that the end-product is friendlier and more informative.
