Expats’ healthcare cover in Cyprus to continue temporarily in a no-deal Brexit

Cyprus and Britain have agreed that British nationals on the island would continue to access the same healthcare cover they currently enjoy for several months even if there is a no-deal Brexit.

According to the British High Commission, Britons in Cyprus will continue to have healthcare coverage for an interim period of several months.

At the end of that period, UK and Cyprus will seek a longer-term bilateral agreement to secure reciprocal healthcare for Britons in Cyprus and Cypriots in the UK.

The BHC thanked the Cypriot authorities for continuing to safeguard the rights of British citizens on the island.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
