Want to add your FAQ?

In Cyprus, you can purchase high-quality and original branded items: the island features almost all global brands — from affordable mass-market labels to luxury fashion houses. The retail infrastructure is actively developing: new shopping centers, boutiques, and concept stores are opening in Limassol, Nicosia, Larnaca, and Paphos, making shopping convenient and diverse.

Shopping Features in Cyprus

Cyprus is a member of the European Union, which means uniform quality standards and official brand supplies apply here. Most boutiques offer original collections from Italy, France, and the UK, and during sale seasons, prices can be significantly lower than in continental Europe.

The sale season occurs twice a year — in winter (from January to February) and summer (from July to August). During this period, prices for clothing, shoes, and accessories are reduced by 30–70%.

Payment is accepted everywhere via bank cards, and stores catering to tourists offer a Tax Free system, allowing a refund of up to 15% VAT when leaving the country.

Many shopping centers have permanent discount zones — Sale Corners — where you can buy original items with up to 80% off.

Nicosia — the Capital of Brands and European Boutiques

Nicosia, the administrative and business center of Cyprus, offers the widest selection of brands.
