The Enforcement and Foreigners Administration announces that during Operation Rising Lion, public reception was not held at the Administration. Therefore, it was not possible to extend the licenses of service applicants who were summoned to the National Center for License Extension for Asylum Seekers and Infiltrators (‘Albar Facility’) between June 15-24, 2025.
In light of the above, the licenses for these service applicants have been automatically extended for a period of one month from their expiration date. Text messages have been sent to them regarding the license extension and their next appointment date for the continued processing of their cases.
It should be clarified that this applies only to service applicants who held a valid residence license on the aforementioned dates and were scheduled to appear for their license renewal.
Please note: The text message you received serves as your official summons for the scheduled appointment. It must be saved on your mobile phone and presented upon arrival at the meeting. It is essential to arrive at the time specified in the text message.
Foreign nationals from this population who did not receive a text message must come to the National Center for License Extension for Asylum Seekers and Infiltrators on reception days at 1:00 PM to inquire about their case.
As a reminder, the updated license validity can be viewed on the Population and Immigration Authority website, under the “Online Information for Employers, Foreign Workers, and Infiltrators” category.
