Customs & Import Regulations
Cyprus Customs Requirements
Cyprus applies a customs regime based on the Harmonized System (HS) codes, with distinct tariff rates depending on product classification. Additionally, a 19% VAT is levied on most imports. סחר.gov
Documentation Needed
To import from Israel (a non-EU country), you’ll typically need:
-
Delivery Order
-
Commercial Invoice
-
Packing List
Additional documentation may be required depending on the product (e.g., technical compliance, CE marking). WWW.COM4TECH.CO.IL
There’s no specific indication that security cameras (surveillance devices) are prohibited. However, devices with wireless or communication features may sometimes be subject to additional oversight. It’s best to verify via official customs sources.
Practical Import Considerations
| Factor | Detail |
|---|---|
| HS Codes | Use correct classification (e.g., 8525.xxxx for security systems) Volza+1 |
| Taxes & Duties | 19% VAT applies; duties vary based on HS code (usually modest for cameras) |
| Documentation | Invoice, packing list, delivery order; compliance certificates if applicable |
| Compliance Check | Verify if CE marking or radio equipment standards are needed |
| Customs Clearance | Using a courier with customs expertise (DHL, FedEx, etc.) can streamline |
