Over 7,000 individuals residing illegally in Cyprus deported in 2026 so far
A total of 208 individuals who were living illegally in Cyprus returned to their home countries last week through forced and voluntary return procedures managed by the Immigration and Migration Service in collaboration with the Deputy Ministry of Migration and International Protection. Since the beginning of 2026, a total of 7,014 illegal residents have been deported from Cyprus as part of ongoing enforcement efforts.
Additionally, the year 2026 has seen a further decrease in the number of new arrivals, with only 1,126 recorded so far. These figures reflect the authorities' continued commitment to managing illegal immigration and ensuring compliance with national and international regulations.
