The above arrangements\u00a0<\/span>do not<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>apply for persons holding a Turkish or Azerbaijani passport. In case of Turkish or Azerbaijani passport holders, please click\u00a0<\/span>here<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>for more details on how to apply for a Cyprus Visa.<\/p>\n
