Post-study work rights (Cyprus):

After completing your degree, you may be eligible to apply for a work permit/residence status that allows you to work in Cyprus. Eligibility and the exact process depend on your graduation status, your job offer (if required), and the current immigration rules.

Typical eligibility factors:

• You must have successfully completed your programme and hold the required graduation documentation.
• You may need to secure employment that matches your qualifications (some pathways require a job offer).
• Your employer may need to follow specific recruitment and sponsorship steps under the applicable work/residence framework.
• You must meet any additional administrative requirements (e.g., valid passport, health insurance, and application fees).

Duration: Work/residence permissions are granted for a limited period and may be renewed if you continue to meet the conditions. The permitted length and renewal rules are set by the authorities at the time of application.

Important: Immigration policies can change. Always verify the latest guidance with the Cyprus Department of Labour and/or the relevant immigration authority and confirm your specific pathway with the university’s international office.
