  • Northern Cyprus ↗Entering the island through the north (Ercan or northern ports) is treated as illegal entry by the Republic of Cyprus; if you plan to visit the south as well, arrive through Larnaca or Paphos.
  • 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.
  • Kyrenia (Girne) ↗Entering the island through Ercan or a northern port is treated as illegal entry by the Republic of Cyprus. If you also plan to visit the south, arrive through Larnaca or Paphos and cross at an official Green Line crossing point.
