 In line with various controls and restrictions imposed by the Cypriot authorities the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has advised against all but essential travel to the Republic of Cyprus.

 

 

The UK national will no longer be permitted to  the Republic of Cyprus for ‘tourists purposes’ as announced by the Republic of Cyprus government.

 

 

Those UK nationals who are the legal residents of Cyprus may enter, work there, attend educational institutions there or with prior authorization from the Cypriot government and have unavoidable professional obligations.

 

By March 21, all hotels and tourist accommodation have been instructed to shut down the operations and remain closed until April 30.

 

By March 21, the government has stated that all tourists will need to leave their accommodation.

 

There are new rules in Cyprus for non-tourists, as of 6 pm on March 16, the UK nationals who are non-tourists entering Cyprus will have to show a medical certificate that has been issued within the past four days. This will show that they have tested negative for Covid-19.

 

In the state facilities they must then enter a 14-day quarantine and the restrictions will remain in force until April 30.

 

The aviation industry has been highly affected and the airport remains empty.

 

 

The Republic of Cyprus Government and the administration in the north following the policy changes announced that the British nationals will not be allowed to cross either the Greek Cypriot or Turkish Cypriot crossing points in either direction this will be regardless of their residency  status until further notice.

 

The Cyprus government has also banned indoor events and events with more than 75 people and other mass events.

 

 

It has been  advised by the  FCO to check with event organiser before travelling.

 

 

So far there is zero death due to Covid-19 in the country.
