What are the current travel restrictions for Nicosia?

Currently, Cyprus travel restrictions include travel to Nicosia. Cyprus has begun to reopen its borders, and prerequisites are in place for travelers to enter the country. To facilitate travel arrangements, the government of Cyprus has created CyprusFlightPass, an online portal where travelers can submit the necessary details to receive authorization to fly. Countries have been sorted into categories A, B, and C based on their epidemiological situation, with A being the most favorable. Travelers entering Cyprus from countries in Category A must complete the Passenger Locator Form and the Declarations for Country A Categories to obtain the CyprusFlightpass. Category A countries include Austria, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Japan, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Malta, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Switzerland, and Thailand. Travelers entering from countries in Category B must complete the above paperwork to obtain the CyprusFlightPass, plus a test (for travelers 12 and over) and lab certificate confirming negative PCR for COVID-19 within 72 hours before their flight to Cyprus. Category B countries include Andorra, Australia, Belgium, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Georgia, Greece, Italy, Monaco, Netherlands, Rwanda, San Marino, Spain, Tunisia, the UK, Uruguay, and the Vatican. Cypriot citizens and their family members, legal residents, those allowed to enter under the Vienna Convention, those with special permission from the government, and travelers entering from countries unable to offer testing may choose to get tested upon entering the country (at their own expense). They must self-isolate until the results are completed, and remain in mandatory quarantine if the test is positive. Category C includes all of the remaining countries not mentioned above. Only Cypriot citizens and their family members, legal residents, those allowed to enter under the Vienna Convention, and those with special permission from the government may enter from these countries. They must complete the above paperwork to obtain the CyprusFlightPass, plus a test and lab certificate confirming negative PCR for COVID-19 within 72 hours before their flight to Cyprus. They may choose to get tested upon entering the country, and the same rules outlined above apply. Please note that travelers from Category A Countries that have stayed overnight in a Category B or C country in the last 14 days before flying to Cyprus will be counted as a Category B or C traveler, and must satisfy the requirements of that category. The same applies for travelers from Category B Countries who have stayed overnight in a Category C country in the last 14 days before flying to Cyprus.

The administration in the north of Cyprus is now also allowing entry to ‘citizens’ and foreign nationals who hold residency, work or student permits. Travelers will be required to show a negative COVID-19 PCR test result (dated between three and five days prior to the date of the flight) on arrival. A second COVID-19 PCR test will be carried out at the airport, followed by 7 days quarantine at the travelers' own expense. A third COVID-19 PCR test after 7 days, if negative, will allow for release from the quarantine facility. If you are planning to travel to Nicosia at this time, it is recommended that you stay up to date on current restrictions and follow proper safety measures while in public.
