What to expect on a United Kingdom → Cyprus move
Your household goods leave the UK from a coastal port (typically Dover, Portsmouth or Immingham depending on route). Shared loads consolidate with 3–8 other Cyprus-bound households in a dedicated Cyprus-line lorry. Expect 10–18 working days door-to-door plus 1–5 days customs clearance at the Cyprus port.
Popular retirement destination. Sea freight via Limassol port.
Every Cyprus consignment is sealed, numbered and photographed
Once your container is loaded, our partner crew fastens a numbered plastic customs seal, photographs it, and logs the seal number on your inventory. Customs officers at the Cyprus port verify the same number on arrival — proof your load has been undisturbed door-to-door.

FAQs
How much does it cost to move from the UK to Cyprus?
In 2026, shared loads on this route typically run £155/m³. A dedicated 20m³ van for a one-to-two bedroom household is around £3,700. Customs and export packing are usually £150–£450 extra.
How long does the United Kingdom to Cyprus transit take?
Transit is typically 10–18 working days once the vehicle leaves the origin. Add 1–5 working days for customs clearance at the Cyprus port.
Do I need customs paperwork for Cyprus?
Yes. Post-Brexit, every UK ↔ Cyprus household move is a customs export. You'll need a valued inventory, ID, address proof at destination, and ideally a Transfer of Residence (ToR) application to avoid import VAT.
What's the cheapest way to move on this route?
Shared loads consolidated with other Cyprus-bound households are the cheapest option (typically £155/m³). Book 6–8 weeks ahead and avoid the June–September peak to save 15–25%.
Do I drive on the left in Cyprus?
Cyprus drives on the left. Removal crews plan loading logistics accordingly — worth flagging if your destination street has narrow access.
