The present paper is devoted to general biconservative surfaces (GB surfaces) in a Lorentzian 3-space form \(N_1^3(c)\) with constant curvature \(c\). In the case of \(c=1\) and \(c=-1\) the Lorentzian space form is the de Sitter space \(\mathbb S_1^3\) and the anti-de Sitter space \(\mathbb H_1^3\), respectively. The surfaces in consideration are characterized by the equation \begin{center} \(A\nabla H + k H\nabla H = 0\). \end{center} Here \(A\) and \(H\) denote the shape operator and the mean curvature, respectively; \(k\) is a constant. Obviously all CMC surfaces fulfill the above equation. The authors give a complete classification and obtain nine kinds of GB surfaces in de Sitter space \(\mathbb S_1^3\) and seven kinds of GB surfaces in anti-de Sitter space \(\mathbb H_1^3\), respectively, which are not CMC surfaces. All these solutions are surfaces of revolution. In the case of Minkowski 3-space \(N_1^3(0)=\mathbb E_1^3\) the complete explicit classification of GB surfaces was provided by \textit{D. Yang} and \textit{X. Y. Zhu} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 496, No. 1, Article ID 124799, 18 p. (2021; Zbl 1459.53032)].
