Do German passport holders need a visa for Cyprus?

Covers 11 passports and 80 destinations. Rules older than 30 days are flagged for re-check.

How this tool works

We read the official notice for each pair and record the date. Nothing here is generated; a pair with no written check is not shown.

No visa. German citizens can enter Cyprus with a passport or a photo identity card.

The Cyprus government says citizens of EU member states can enter with an identity card, as long as it bears their photo. Cyprus is in the EU but not in Schengen, so there are no EES or ETIAS steps for EU citizens. The Auswaertiges Amt page could not be read, so this row relies on the destination country's own page.

Northern Cyprus: Enter through the south; Entering the Republic through the north, such as via Ercan Airport, is treated as illegal entry; cross the Green Line only at official points.
