| Before purchasing your dream home in Cyprus, there are always questions that need asking.

 Since Cyprus entry into the EU on May 1st 2004, all EU citizens have the right of free movement, to live and work in Cyprus without restrictions provided that they hold an EU passport. However, non-Cypriot citizens must still follow the formality of registering at the local immigration office in order to obtain a social security number.
Finding a job in Cyprus can be done through visiting the Labour Office, or simply through the local newspapers. Now that Cyprus is an EU member, the co-operate network EURES can be used to assist mobile workers in all aspects of living and working in EU countries such as Cyprus.
