No coronavirus test will be required for fully vaccinated persons who wish to visit the north from Monday, it was announced on Thursday night.

A statement from the United Nations in Nicosia said that the bicommunal technical committee on health during their latest meeting on Thursday, decided that the test requirement for vaccinated people will no longer be necessary from September 27.

For the unvaccinated, a 72-hour negative rapid or PCR test will still be required. The exceptions are high school students crossing over for studies and people residing in isolated Kato Pyrgos who will instead need a 7-day negative rapid or PCR test.
