🇨🇭 Switzerland to Cyprus: visa and entry requirements 🇨🇾

Visa-freeOrdinary passport

Visa-free · Visa-free entry under Switzerland–EU free movement; longer presence may require Cypriot registration · Swiss citizens may enter the Republic of Cyprus without a visa under the Switzerland–EU Agreement on the Free Movement of Persons with a valid Swiss passport or identity card. The legal basis is free movement rather than Cyprus's tourist-visa exemption for third-country nationals, so a 90-days-in-180 tourist ceiling is not asserted for Swiss citizens. A longer presence may require local registration and compliance with residence conditions. Travellers must still use entry and exit points recognised by the Republic of Cyprus; the free-movement classification does not validate entry through an unrecognised port in the north.
