People planning their summer holidays may like to consider Cyprus their destination of choice after the country dropped its Covid-19 entry requirements. More than a million UK holidaymakers regularly travelled to the sun-kissed island in the eastern Mediterranean each year before the pandemic hit.
Last year, the island, whose economy relies heavily on tourism, welcomed about 390 visitors from the UK, according to tourism website Statista. But numbers could well start to soar again with the latest update, which has been shared by the government's official travel advice portal.
The latest change means that from June 1 British holidaymakers will no longer have to provide proof of their vaccination status, covid tests or official NHS recovery certificates. The Gov.UK website states: "As of 1 June 2022, passengers travelling to Cyprus will not be required to present any sort of vaccination or recovery certificate, nor a negative COVID test result."
