Please note that the waiting time may vary and can, on occasion, be lengthy due to high demand for these services. As this service requires no appointment, it is difficult to predict activity at each site. Therefore, please be aware that the stated closing times are strict and if queues are excessive at the end of the day, services may close early to ensure adherence to the stated closing times.
