Cyprus sells itself as a Mediterranean dream — but expats who come unprepared quickly learn that the island runs on its own rhythm, rules, and riddles. This guide bridges the gap between fantasy and function, giving you a grounded, step-by-step route to building a life in Cyprus that actually works.

From residence permits to banking labyrinths, healthcare logistics to tax strategy, this book doesn’t gloss over the quirks. You’ll get detailed procedures, updated costs, timelines, and how to avoid the classic traps that catch most newcomers off guard.

But life in Cyprus isn’t just administrative. You’ll also learn how to navigate the island’s cultural code — from North/South divides to social hierarchies, linguistic shifts, and that elusive “local acceptance” many expats never manage to earn.

Cyprus isn’t complex — until it is. This guide gives you the tools to read it, navigate it, and thrive within it. Mediterranean sun included — illusions not.
