Civil wedding in Cyprus

Hello,

I am from an Arab country that recognizes religious marriage, and my religion (Muslim) does not allow me to marry a person from a different religion (Christian).

Our parents have no problem as long as we keep our religions.

Is that possible with civil marriage procedure in Cyprus, and what documents do we need for that? Can we go alone?

Thank you.

Yes, you can get married in Cyprus through a civil wedding, not a religious one.

You need to request it from a town hall of your choice and you need two witnesses.

The mayor of the town hall will book for you a wedding day.
