North Cyprus is one of the most romantic places in Europe. If you are planning a wedding abroad, then North Cyprus is the perfect destination. Imagine gliding around the pool of a five-star hotel while your guests sit under a canopy, warmed by the summer breeze. Picture taking your vows on the lawn in front of the famous Bellapais Abbey, or in the breathtaking surroundings of the Korineum Golf Club, or saying ‘I do’ by the sea, as you wiggle your toes in the sand on a sun-kissed beach. North Cyprus holidays can cost up to a third less than a conventional wedding in the UK, guaranteeing you a honeymoon in the sun.
Only foreigners residing in the country with a residence permit, work visa, or student visa—not on a tourist visa—are eligible to marry in Northern Cyprus. In this case, marriage registration is not conducted by a marriage officer but by the district governor of the place of residence. To proceed, an application must be submitted to the governor's office along with the necessary documentation.
