FORM C

Foreigners have to notify their arrival to the ward administration office and the township immigration department with “form C: report of arrival” within (theoretically) 24 hours after their arrival (rule 14(6) Registration of Foreigners Rules “RFR”). Form C first has to be taken to the ward administration office and then to the township immigration department. The township immigration department will stamp an original and hand it back to the foreigner; the foreigner is strongly advised to carefully keep this document. Form C has to be renewed whenever the foreigner has obtained a new visa.
