In the title complex, [Cu(CH5N3S)2(NCS)], the non-H part of the molecule is strictly planar, lying on the mirror plane at y = 0.25. The Cu atom lies at the centre of a triangle formed by the coordination of three monodentate groups, viz. two thiosemicarbazide ligands and one NCS- anion. Weak intermolecular N-H...S interactions generate a two-dimensional network.
