Parcel Delivery To Cyprus

Cyprus is an island country in the Eastern Mediterranean and enjoys a healthy reputation of one of Europe’s best holiday destinations. Despite being a small country with a population of just over one million people, Cyprus is one of the UK's top 50 export markets, according to Gov.uk. Coupled with its membership to the Commonwealth and the EU, visitation and trade to Cyprus is easy and becoming increasingly more popular. It’s worth noting that the Republic of Cyprus is partitioned into two main parts: the area under the effective control of the Republic, located in the south and west, which comprises of about 59% of the island's area; and the north, administered by the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, covering about 36% of the island's area. We advise you check with the Cyprus Post when arranging your parcel delivery as the guidelines differ depending on the region – for example, parcels to Northern Cyprus are delivered through Turkey and therefore all parcels should have ‘MERSIN 10’ as the postcode and ‘Turkey’ as the country of destination.It should also be noted that whilst customs clearance is not required for EU countries like Cyprus, it still has security protocols like any other country.
