Overseas Cypriots who are permanent residents abroad and wish to be repatriated and work in Cyprus are advised to apply to the Department of Labour, Ministry of Labour and Social Insurance, which through its Labour Offices offers not only job matching services, but also provide information on the Cypriot Labour Market and vocational guidance through its network of Employment Counselors.

Overseas Cypriots may apply for employment in Cyprus, while they are still abroad, by completing the relevant downloadable Application From for Employment. The completed form should be sent to the District Office of your choice where assigned Counselors will receive and process your application immediately. The contact details for all the District Labour Offices are shown below.

Good employment prospects exist both for skilled labour and for qualified personnel in all sectors of the economy and particularly in the field of education, computer science, accounting and engineering. In recent years and particularly during the last decade the high demand for labour is partly met by foreign workers who secure temporary work permits. Vacant posts can be viewed on the internet-based system of Public Employment Services, www.pescps.dl.mlsi.gov.cy and on the EURES Website at www.eures.europa.eu
