Today the Cyprus government implemented that all Cyprus Citizens from the age of 18 and above are to show immigration personnel a minimum of EUR 5,000.00 or its equivalent at the airport whenever they are travelling outside the country.
There has been cases of Cyprus citizens getting stranded in foreign countries when they go out to find greener pastures but this said amount is suppose to show the degree of comfort until you gainfully employed when out of the country.
No Individual or body is entitled to collect the funds from citizens but it must be shown to an immigration officer before your boarding pass will be released to enable you board the plane with no distraction.
