Cyprus has its own history, breathtaking, bright, sometimes sad and filled with heavy events. This island and now has ambiguous status in the world. After the state coup in 1974, Cyprus was divided into South (Greek) Cyprus and Northern (Turkish) for many decades. The northern part of the island is controlled by the troops of the Turkish army, and as a separate country is not recognized by any state except Turkey. You can get to the tourist island only through the southern part of it.

The Republic of Cyprus, or South Cyprus, is officially part of the European Union, but is not a member of the Schengen Agreement. Unfortunately, for many Russians, Cyprus is not a visa-free country, and to enter persons from third countries, non-EU citizens, a national visa is needed. At the same time, owners can visit the island.

Refuse to issue a Cyprus visa

Consulate of Cyprus is one of the most loyal in relation to the Russians. - Easy rarity. But this can happen. There may be several reasons, from the false documents filed to cooperate with travel agencies, which have a bad reputation. But most often the cause of refusal is the violation of the legislation of the Republic of Cyprus and entering the "black list".

For example, you did not pay a fine, discharged into the past trip to the island. Or left Cyprus from the northern part of it through prohibited items (seaports, airports in the northern part of the island). In general, the question of visiting Northern Cyprus is very scrupulous. What rules are valid in an unrecognized country and what a tourist expects when traveling to Northern Cyprus, read below.

Northern Cyprus: Rules, Laws, Possible Risks for Tourists

The island in the Mediterranean, so attractive for tourists, businessmen and investors, lives in an occupation mode for more than forty years. The third territory occupies the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which is now under the control of Turkish soldiers, and is not recognized as a separate state.

Only one country in the world - Turkey - recognized this republic from which it depends actually 100%.

Between the two parts of the island there is a so-called green line, which goes right through the capital of Cyprus - the city of Nicosia. There are several official checkpoints on this line, and cross the "green line" can be unhindered.

Most tourists fall into Cyprus officially, on a national visa or on Schengen. According to the legislation of the Republic of Cyprus, there are only two legal checkpoints - airports in Larnaca and Paphos. All other paths (airports in the northern part of the island, seaports) are considered illegal.

Does it make sense to violate the Law of the Republic of Cyprus? Much depends on what purpose you are going to the island. The fact is that both the standard of living and the prices in Cyprus differ in two parts dramatically. So, accommodation in hotels, tourist services, restaurants, entertainment in Northern Cyprus is 3-4 times cheaper than southern. The same applies to real estate. The cost of housing in the Turkish part of the island is ten times lower than in the "European" Greek.

Attractions are both in the other parts of the island. The city of Nicosia, in which most beautiful ancient architectural structures are divided between Greek and Turkish Cyprus. For tourists, they even offer such an unusual option: to visit in the Green Line area. One of the viewing platforms, with which all the sights of the "closed zone" are perfectly visible.

South Cyprus is a modern European state, here everything is at a high level - from the service and service to the protection of human rights. In Northern Cyprus, everything is much more difficult. But the sea is the same everywhere.

Moreover, in the northern part of the island is very quiet, calmly, there is no large number of tourists. Holidays from the Azure Sea on clean beaches alone with me - if this is your goal, then you will quite satisfy the Northern Cyprus.

There are two options of how to get to Northern Cyprus:

• fly on an official visa in Larnaca or Paphos, then rent a car and go through one of the checkpoint points to Northern Cyprus (you will need to additionally pay insurance for entering the car from the southern part of the island);
• jump on foot border in the center of Nicosia (Cyprus's capital);
• fly to Erzhan Airport from Turkey (planes are sitting there only from this direction), fly back in the same way.

The intersection of the "green line" from South Cyprus in the presence of an official visa, it does not threaten you. If you flew to Northern Cyprus, and the accelerator officer wants to check your documents (this is done selectively, but there is still a risk), then you are threatened with serious trouble.

Visit to Northern Cyprus not through South Cyprus is considered the illegal crossing of the border, and you will have to answer for violation before the law. It is not limited to a fine: with such a stamp in a passport and getting into the "black list" to open a new visa to South Cyprus it will be impossible, problems may occur when submitting documents for visas in the EU (Schengen).

Northern Cyprus on the right, and on the left - the South

There are other, equally important nuances for which Russians often do not pay attention. So, in the territory of Northern Cyprus there is no official representation of our country, since Russia also does not recognize this state. Therefore, if any problems arise, you will simply have nowhere.

On this earth does not operate auto insurance, as well. You stay completely unprotected and you can only count on your strength.
