History

The Embassy of Northern Cyprus in Ankara was established in 17 April 1984, shortly after the declaration of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Prior to 1984, the institution existed in various names. In 1966, the Turkish Cypriot Community in Cyprus established an Ankara Office, which became the Representation of the Autonomous Turkish Cypriot Administration in Ankara in 1974. In 1975, it was renamed as the Representation of the Head of the Turkish Cypriot Federated State, and in 1983, it began to serve as an Embassy. Since then, the embassy has played an important role in maintaining diplomatic relations between Northern Cyprus and Turkey.

Services

The Embassy of Northern Cyprus in Ankara provides a range of services to Turkish Cypriot citizens living in Turkey and Turkish citizens who wish to visit or travel to Northern Cyprus. These services include consular services, such as passport and identity document issuance, and assistance with legal and financial issues.

Ambassador

As of 2023, the Ambassador of Northern Cyprus to Turkey is İsmet Korukoğlu. The ambassador is the chief diplomat of Northern Cyprus in Turkey and is responsible for overseeing the embassy's activities and representing Northern Cyprus' interests in Turkey.

Division of Cyprus

The existence of an embassy is controversial as the Republic of Cyprus and the international community see Northern Cyprus as occupied territory. However, Turkey recognizes it as an independent state and maintains diplomatic relations. Northern Cyprus is recognized by the international community as a de facto state.
