We've got great news for you... Holidaymakers no longer need a PCR/Antigen test to travel to North Cyprus!

We are super excited to announce that from the 1st March 2022, fully vaccinated travellers will no longer be required to present a negative PCR/Antigen test.

Who is considered to be fully vaccinated?

✅ Travellers who have received their full-series of vaccines (two doses of a UK government-approved vaccine or one dose of the Janssen vaccine) at least 14 days before departure within the time frame of 9 months of their vaccination.

✅ Travellers with a booster dose following the 9 months that have passed since their most recent dose.

✅ Travellers who have tested Covid’19 positive within the time frame of 10-180 days.

At last.

This is indeed good news.

It will help the tourist industry, plus those who own or rent property be they swallows or those who have not been able to travel out for the last two years.

Not seen this mentioned anywhere else just a CypusParadise advertising email.

First time I have seen North Cyprus being advertised on ITV, directly flights would be a cherry on top of the icing.

It would help to get more tourists from the UK if the waiting time for transfer from Istanbul to Ercan was cut, 10 hours at Istanbul is the shortest from Manchester.

Go via Antalya. It does mean two different airlines so either Jet 2 or Easyjet from there but easily managed with 1 hour 40 wait or 4 hours rather than 10. Not pricy either.
