Customs in Cyprus
Cyprus Department of Customs and Excise clears imports into Cyprus. Imports pay customs duty and import VAT. The rates depend on the product.
- A business that imports into the European Union needs an EORI number. Goods clear customs once at the EU border, then move inside the EU with no more customs checks.
Ask for DDP and we clear customs and pay the duty for you. Without DDP, you or your broker clear the goods, and we send the documents.
