I just want to mention that the ministry of finance offers a variety of rebates and allowances for Cypriot citizens including… (my translations)

1. Student allowance

2. Child allowance

3. Car purchase allowance (4+ children)

4. Mother allowance (4+ children)

5. Blind person’s allowance

6. Financial assistance for the disabled to purchase a car.

7. Disabled persons mobility allowance.

8. Special assistance towards the purchase or building of a home.

Taken from…

The English version of the page doesn’t give any of this detail.

Good luck to all.

I don't understand how this country is so expensive either... and people are just accepting it.
The interesting thing is that you see all the youngsters driving fancy cars and spending all their time at coffee shops. It costs 5 euros or something for a nescafe which has a real cost of probably 10 cents.

Any countries worth moving too in the EU? I'm up for it Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Cyprus is not very expensive as long as you have your own home and a good job. You can save some money on electricity bills if you use renewable energy (e.g. photovoltaics). Their still quite expensive but the price gradually drops and you can also get 50% government funding. There is a fair in Nicosia these days I believe. Also a good idea is the hybrid vehicles (e.g. Honda Civic hybrid). Wink

I would LOOVEEE to afford a Honda Civid Hybrid...it's in my "to buy" list.
But DO tell me about the renewable energy thing. Can I actually buy a solar panel or something and plug it in my house ? or would it cost me a fortune just to get it installed and fine-tuned with everything ?

I am not sure about exact prices. I went to the fair last year. Currently I am not in Cyprus. It's probably a good investment if you have a medium to large house (not flat). Have a look at the CIE website:

Hi kurupeto. Do you know how to apply for this grant and what qualifies you to receive it? Thanks
