Crossing to South Cyprus

Visiting the South? Here is how.

Your holiday can take in both sides of the island, and a day in the South is simple to plan.

Before you cross

Three things to sort out before your day in the South.

  • Rules for your passport

    Entry rules depend on your nationality and are set by the authorities on each side, so check the latest before you go.

  • Euro in the South

    Bring euros or a card for the day; in the North the local currency is the Turkish lira.

  • Your phone

    EU roaming does not apply in the North, so check your phone plan for both sides.
