Registering a Vehicle in Cyprus

Here at PMR we work hard to ensure your move goes as smoothly as possible.  We now organise and assist all the below with you for a small fee.

When you import a car into Cyprus once customs clearance has been declared it must be registered at the traffic department. (The customs clearance fee’s are included in our shipping costs)

The duties are to be paid for importing a car.
Please use the link attached to work out the duties for yourself.

You will require the log book to do this.
