Post

The opening hours of the post offices in Cyprus normally reflect the laid-back attitude of the entire island, being open 8:30am–1pm and 3pm–4:45pm except from May to August when the offices close at 1pm. Post offices are easy to spot thanks to the yellow sign that pops out of the wall. In the offices you will find stamps and postcards and you will be able to post letters. Mail boxes are also located throughout Cyprus and they are yellow and round-shaped. Stamps are also available in some kiosks.

Passport & Visa

Cyprus’s passport and visa requirements vary for different nationalities. Citizens of the European Union (EU) countries (including Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein) need a passport or a valid ID. The rest of the citizens of other countries will need a passport. Many countries, including the United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and Japan, benefit from visa-free entry for tourism short stays of up to 90 days maximum. Travellers requiring a short-stay visa (valid for up to 90 days), such as those from some Middle-Eastern, African, or Asian nations, the visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All visitors should ensure their passport is valid for at least six months beyond their intended stay. If you're not sure whether or not to apply for a visa, we recommend you contact the embassy or consulate in your country. For Northern Cyprus, nationals of most countries will need to obtain a visa for stays of under 90 days. Citizens of the European Union (EU) countries, United Kingdom and United States do not need visas for Northern Cyprus, for tourism entry and up to 90 days.
