Cyprus is an EU member – so transports from Germany to the Republic of Cyprus run without customs clearance. The logistical challenge is the island location: every shipment needs, besides the road pre-carriage, a sea or air freight leg. Speed Logistics organises the complete chain door-to-door: road pre-carriage through Europe, shipping via Piraeus or directly to Limassol, and delivery in Nicosia, Limassol or Larnaca – usually within 7–10 days. Urgent shipments fly from Frankfurt to Larnaca and reach the consignee in 2–4 days.
You receive a fixed-price quote for the entire route within a few hours – one price, one contact, no interface losses between pre-, main and on-carriage. Our dispatch team is reachable round the clock and accompanies the shipment across every leg up to proof of receipt.
Scope of services for Cyprus transports
- Full and part loads by trailer with ferry loading or container from the German ports
- Groupage and additional-load solutions for smaller shipments to Nicosia, Limassol and Larnaca
- Air freight from Frankfurt to Larnaca for urgent and high-value goods
- Door-to-door service including pick-up anywhere in Germany and advised delivery on the island
- Premium handling for sensitive shipments such as medical technology, electronics or hotel furnishings
Routing: how your goods reach Cyprus
The most economical way runs by truck or container through Europe to Greece and by ship from Piraeus to Limassol; alternatively we ship containers directly from Hamburg. Which variant is right depends on shipment size, deadline and budget – we cost both on request. With air freight from Frankfurt the sea passage is eliminated entirely; that is worthwhile for spare parts, exhibition goods and anything that has to arrive in days rather than weeks.
EU traffic without customs formalities
As an intra-Community supply, your shipment to the Republic of Cyprus needs neither an export declaration nor customs clearance – trade papers and a consignment note are sufficient. This distinguishes Cyprus from other Mediterranean destinations and makes the handling lean. The only point to note is that deliveries to the north of the island, not controlled by the Republic, are subject to separate rules; we check the delivery address before submitting the quote.
Process: from enquiry to delivery on the island
You send us the type of goods, dimensions, weight and pick-up and delivery address; within a few hours you receive a fixed-price quote with a routing recommendation. After approval we collect the goods anywhere in Germany, book the ship or air capacity and coordinate the transhipments at the ports. On Cyprus, delivery is advised and confirmed with proof of delivery – for trade and hotel deliveries with a fixed time slot on request. As departures to Limassol do not take place daily, we recommend submitting enquiries with some lead time; your dispatch team names the next realistic shipping dates directly in the quote.
