The enforcement of foreign judgments in Cyprus can be effected,
either under statute (i.e. provided there is a bilateral
arrangement between the Republic of Cyprus and the country of issue
of the specific foreign judgment regulating such enforcement) or
under common law.
In the absence of any statutory jurisdiction of Cypriot Courts
to recognise and enforce a foreign Court judgment in the Republic
of Cyprus, then such a foreign judgment may be recognised and
enforced by an action at common law (i.e. an action based on the
foreign judgment).
When a foreign Court judgment may be registered and enforced
under statute, then there is no jurisdiction of Cyprus Court to
enforce such foreign judgment by an action at common law.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
