| re msg 2 CORRECTION..!!! A TRNC kimlik is NOT enough to cross the checkpoints.. Turkish Nationals can only cross if they are married to a Turkish Cypriot and they produce the relevant document to prove this. |

| Susie KKTC kimlik is enough to cross the checkpoint only if it belongs to a Turkish Cypriot who has been a Turkish Cypriot pre 1974.. There are tens of thousands of mainland Turks who carry KKTC kimlik but they are not allowed to cross (unless they are married to a TC) ROC imigration have records of all Turkish Cypriots pre 1974 at the checkpoints and it only takes them few minutes to do an ID check from their database. |

| Is your friends dad Turkish or Turkish Cypriot? Even one Cypriot parent is enough to enable her to cross.. |
