The government of Cyprus is encouraging Cypriot nationals not to apply for a visa to enter Turkey using the new procedure Ankara has introduced, which refers to “Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus” and does not include the Republic of Cyprus in the list of states, whose nationals need to apply for a visa.
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs encourages holders of passports issued by the Republic of Cyprus not to apply for an entry visa to Turkey, under the terms of the new procedure for such a visa (for tourism or trade purposes), which came into force on 10 April, 2014,” a press release by the Ministry says.

The new visa system invites people to complete the necessary forms and submit their visa application electronically, through the Turkish government website.
