- Northern Cyprus ↗Crossing the Green Line: carry your passport, use only the official crossing points, and expect checks on both sides. EU customs allowances apply when you cross back south.
- Northern Cyprus ↗Hire cars and insurance from the south usually do not cover the north; buy separate cover at the crossing, or hire in the north.
- Northern Cyprus ↗Property ownership in the north is often disputed; take independent legal advice before any purchase.
- Kyrenia District ↗Plan every leg outside Kyrenia by taxi or hire car; buses are infrequent, and hire-car insurance from the south usually does not cover the north.
