Cyprus Border Crossing So, if you wish to travel from TRNC to the Republic of Cyprus, the easiest way is to cross the border on foot and then rent a car in the South. There are several Greek car hire agencies near the Ledra Palace border crossing. However, please note that insurance purchased from one side is not applicable to the other. So when you cross you will need to purchase insurance If you hire a car in the South, then you can drive it North and pay some 12 YTL for 3 days or 20 YTL for a month. However, you should take care to check that you buy comprehensive or full collision damage waiver insurance Agios Dometios (Nicosia) The crossing is quite easy to find in TRNC. If you are travelling from Girne / Kyrenia, take a right at the first and main roundabout in North Nicosia and then at the first set of traffic lights take the left filter lane. Travel to the end of this long road and take a right at the roundabout. Move into the right hand lane and go straight over the next roundabout. You will now proceed directly to the Metehan border crossing. If you have a British passport or are an EU passport holder or you have visa permission to enter the Republic of Cyprus you should present your papers to the Turkish Cypriot authorities at the border, fill in a white visa slip with your name, passport number and nationality and then you will be allowed to pass. As previously advised, please note that if you are in a hire car from Northern Cyprus you will not be allowed into the Republic of Cyprus. You should park your car and walk across the border. However, this is not the best crossing for pedestrians. If you’re travelling to Northern Cyprus from south Cyprus you should drive to Nicosia and follow the few signs that exist to ‘Keryneia’ and you will arrive at the Metehan crossing point. You will not be stopped until you reach the Turkish Cypriot side. If you possess a British passport, an EU member state passport or have a visa to enter TRNC you will just have to present your papers, complete a white visa slip and you can proceed. Please note that hire cars from south Cyprus are permitted to enter Northern Cyprus but all cars have to purchase additional insurance at the border crossing point.
