Do Indians need a visa for Cyprus?

Short answer

Yes. Indian nationals need a visa, unless they hold a valid double- or multiple-entry Schengen visa or a Schengen residence permit, which lets them stay up to 90 days in any 180.

To live in Cyprus, you need a residence permit from the Migration Department: for example through a company of foreign interests, with a gross salary of at least €2,500 a month, or the Digital Nomad Visa, with a net income of at least €3,500 a month from work for clients or employers outside Cyprus.
