Polis sits at the far north west corner of Cyprus, on Chrysochou Bay with the Akamas peninsula beyond it. It is the quietest of the British areas on the island and the furthest from the port. And both of those things shape how a move here gets scheduled.
Latchi harbour is a mile or so from the town and gives the area its centre of gravity. Prodromi, Neo Chorio, Argaka, Pomos and Kato Pyrgos spread along the coast, with Drouseia, Ineia, Kritou Terra and Goudi in the hills behind.
The Akamas is a protected peninsula, so there is no development beyond Neo Chorio. That keeps the area quiet and it also means the road stops. Anything past that point is track.
Goods clear at Limassol and travel about 100 kilometres, then another 35 north from Paphos. It is the longest inland leg in the district and one of the longest in the Republic.
Transfer of residence relief is what keeps duty and VAT off a household shipment. It is claimed on Ministry of Finance form Aπ. 2 and it rests on you having owned and used the goods for six months or more.
The qualifying rules and the vehicle exception are on the Cyprus customs and transfer of residence page. For today's position, check the Department of Customs and Excise for the current position rather than a removals page.
Six in ten enquiries are British. The rest are not. International movers, removal firms and moving companies are three names for one trade. Use whichever term you like; the answer does not change.

Movers do not run to the far north west every day. Deliveries here are often fitted around other work in the district, so booking early gives you more choice of date. Booking late does not speed it up.
Not usually. The town is flat, the coastal villages are low rise and most properties have somewhere for a vehicle to stop. It is a good deal easier than the hill villages further south.
Yes. Drouseia, Ineia, Kritou Terra and Goudi are reached on narrow mountain roads. So a smaller vehicle is used and the last stretch to a village house is sometimes on foot.
Neo Chorio is the last village before the protected peninsula and is served normally. Beyond it the road becomes track and there is no development, so nothing is delivered past that point.
It usually saves money, but it costs flexibility, and flexibility is already tighter here than elsewhere. If your date is fixed, price a dedicated vehicle alongside the shared option before deciding.
Physical access in and around Polis is mostly reasonable. The town is flat, the coastal villages are low rise, and most properties have somewhere for a vehicle to stop.
The constraint is frequency. Movers do not run up here every day, so a delivery to Polis is often scheduled around other work in the district rather than on your preferred date. Booking earlier buys you more choice than booking late buys you speed.
The hill villages behind the bay are the exception. Drouseia, Ineia and Kritou Terra are reached on narrow mountain roads where a smaller vehicle is the sensible answer. And where the last stretch to a village house is often on foot.

The collection point, the delivery point, the date and the rough size of the job. The mover checks access at both ends and the paperwork, then contacts you.
