Are you an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen?

If yes — the Yellow Slip (MEU1) is the Cyprus registration document you'll need for stays over 90 days. If no, you need a Pink Slip (Temporary Residence Permit) instead.

Do you intend to stay in Cyprus for more than 90 days?

If yes — Yellow Slip registration is mandatory under Cyprus immigration law. Stays of 90 days or less do not require registration.

Are you employed, self-employed, or operating a Cyprus business?

Yes triggers the 'employee' / 'self-employed' / 'business person' MEU1 category. Each requires specific evidence (employment contract, business registration, etc.).

Do you have proof of sufficient funds and Cyprus health insurance?

Required for the 'economically inactive' MEU1 category (retirees, students with no Cyprus economic activity). Funds threshold is set annually by the Civil Registry & Migration Department.

Do you have a Cyprus residential address?

Required for any MEU1 category — proof is rental agreement or title deed plus a utility bill.

Are you a family member of an EU/EEA/Swiss citizen residing in Cyprus?

If yes — you may apply under the family-member MEU1 category, which has a different evidence list (relationship documents, EU citizen's MEU1).

Do you already have a Cyprus Tax Identification Number (TIN)?

Not required for MEU1 application but recommended to apply alongside — Nexora bundles TIN application with MEU1 by default.
