Re: Blood tests

Re: Post Brexit, British permanent residents in Cyprus cannot vote, stand in local elections

Strange! The last time the municipal elections came round (about 5 years ago) I was able to vote. I would have thought that legal residents would be able to vote albeit only in local elections. The difference maybe because of Brexit, but I would have thought that democracy would supersede this. Does...

Thanks for the info and we will seriously consi...

Complex Letterbox

Anyone know where we can source a bank of 18 letterboxes for a block on a complex. We have been quoted over €600 for such a thing, supplied and fixed, but this seems a bit OTT

Re: Cyprus Driving Licence Second Renewal

If one is renewing a Cypriot Driving Licence for over 70s, when should the Eye Test and Doctor's certificate be obtained, i.e. is there a maximum period beforehand when these documents should be obtained.

What is the tel. no. of the CBB (CAB?) to make an appointment at the Anavargos branch.
