If you are a citizen of an EU member state, your driving license is valid until it expires.
Driving licenses from the countries listed below are valid for visitors for a maximum of 90 days, or if resident 6 months (one hundred and eighty-five days). Then they must be exchanged for a Cyprus driving license:
- Australia
- Canada
- Georgia
- Iceland
- Japan
- Liechtenstein
- New Zealand
- Norway
- Russia
- Serbia
- South Africa
- South Korea
- Switzerland
- UK
- Ukraine
- United Arab Emirates
- USA
- Zimbabwe
If you are from any other country we suggest obtaining an International Driving Permit (IDP) together with a current valid domestic driving licence. Those are usually valid until the IDP expires, giving you enough time to get a new one in Cyprus.
