FORMALITES

1. ENTRY VISAS

Cyprus is a full member of the European Union and we strongly advise all participants originating from countries which are not members of the European Union, to verify well in advance whether they need a visa for entry into Cyprus. The visas must be obtained from a Cyprus Embassy or Consulate abroad prior to arrival. The Organizing Committee will be ready to supply to the participants applying for a visa, any necessary documentation.

No Siegen visas are acceptable in Cyprus.
Detailed information regarding visas and formalities for entry into Cyprus can be found in the website of the Cyprus Ministry of Foreign Affairs, www.mfa.gov.cy, at the ‘travel information for foreign visitors’ and ‘application’ subsections.
 

2. SHOTGUN CUSTOMS CLEARANCE

European Union Members holding a ‘European Firearms Permit’ do not require any form of import permit or license. Upon arrival they must check their shotguns through customs (Red Channel) and verify the serial numbers of their weapons only.
Shooters, not holding a ‘European Firearms Certificate’ are requested upon arrival at Larnaca or Paphos airports, to present to customs (Red Channel) the completed official shotgun declaration form in triplicate, in order to obtain a temporary shotgun import permit.
The gun permits or the ‘European Firearms Certificates’ must be represented to customs at the time of departure before check-in.

IMPORTANT for all shooters (EU or non EU members)

The import of 12G Auto or Semi-Auto shotguns is prohibited in Cyprus.

Shooters, who intend to bring such shotguns for exclusive use at the competition, must contact the Cyprus Shooting Sport Federation at least one and a half months before arrival in order to obtain a special shotgun import permit. The following documents must be submitted:

a) copy of passport;
b) copy of the ‘European Firearms Certificate’ (if any);
c) details of the shotgun (manufacturer, model and serial number);
d) a personal letter from the participant addressed to the Cyprus Police Authorities’ requesting the issue of a temporary shotgun import permit for participation at the competition;
e) a letter from the local club (or national federation) certifying the applicant’s membership with the club (or the federation) and his registration number. 

3. AMMUNITION

The custom authorities will allow all participating shooters to import with them all the necessary cartridges that will be used for the competition. Local made and other well known imported cartridges (VICTORY, RC, B&P, OLYMPIA, RIO, FIOCCHI) will be available for sale at the shooting range at approximately €5.50 - €7.00 per box of 25.

3. STORAGE OF GUNS AND AMMUNITIONS

Limited storage of guns and ammunition will be available at the range. The police authorities permit all visitors possessing a valid temporary import shotgun permit or a ‘European Shotgun certificate’, to store freely their weapons and ammunition in their hotel rooms, during their stay in Cyprus.
