I'm going to drive it. So I would enter Cyprus from North, from Turkey. Because I live in Romania there is no way I can ship it.

In that case forget it ~ I doubt very much if you will be able to register your car in Cyprus if it has come into the island via an illegal port .

So sell it and buy one here .

Bill is right. No chance of doing that.

My advice would be sell it and buy here.

We brought our car with us and customs insisted we had to pay duty (CY£21,600 at the time!) despite it was just over 6 months old and had 6k miles+ and part of our transfer of permanent residency.

18 months later and MUCH to-ing and fro-ing it was sorted and is now on Cyprus plates.

A whole lot of hassle really!
