Re: Gas Permits
We have always been told end of December, I think a couple of years ago there was a delay in issuing the cost, which had changed, so we got it in January once the new prices had been advised. I think we will go and try for it, 30th December.

Re: Gas Permits
You will probably find that no permits will be issued before 1 january (probably a bit later) as i understand there are some price increases on the way .

Re: Gas Permits
Just out of interest what are gas permits for, apart from the obvious?

Re: Gas Permits
They are required if you have a large gas tank in your garden, for example. Above a certain amount of gas storage, a permit is needed, and the fire service have to inspect that it is situated in the correct place, far enough away from any building. Ours is 1000 lts, not sure at what point the need for a permit starts. It is not needed for small gas bottles. But I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.

Re: Gas Permits
The delivery guys are supposed to see your Permit before topping up your tank! In about 3 years they have never asked to see ours! BTW, we also had to have a solid block wall built behind our tank as the garden wall was not deemed high enough in case of explosion - ha, now our neighbours will be blasted with blocks!!

Re: Gas Permits
We applied, and received, the permit when the subject first raised its head a few years back. Reading the earlier posts gives me the impression that we perhaps should have renewed the permit by now - is that the case? Is the permit renewable?

Re: Gas Permits
I think you are OK to renew in the first week of January. The hotel owners tend to get in as soon as the new permits are available to avoid a fine. We got caught up in this once and felt very smug when we saved about 9 TL.

Re: Gas Permits
If you walk past the state hospital in Girne heading towards the Pia Bella end of the road, then go into the large car park for the various official offices, you want the first building on the left. When you go in turn first left, just past the information desk then into the office on the left. Present yourself at the desk.

Re: Gas Permits
Keith Caley and Frontalman, thanks for your responses. I'll go down to the office early next year, and offer myself up for whatever punishment awaits for missing a few annual renewals.
