One login to offices. We can handle more and more matters online.
CY Login is intended to gradually replace separate accounts used in government systems. New government platforms are already being designed with the option of using a shared login, and older platforms are being transitioned to it in stages. However, this doesn't mean that all official matters can now be handled in one place.
Approximately 735,000 individuals and entities have verified profiles, and the number of digital government services has exceeded 470. For residents, the most important features are concrete options: submitting applications for benefits, checking contributions, using police services, and handling tax formalities.
CY Login - a shared account instead of multiple passwords
CY Login is a mechanism for logging in and confirming user identity. It is designed to facilitate access to various administration systems without the need to create a separate account in each one.
Individual services may still run on separate pages. A common login does not mean one application that replaces all offices.
According to data from the ministry responsible for digitalization, approximately 554 thousand natural persons and 181 thousand legal personsThis second group includes, among others, companies and organizations.
It also announced the completion of over 100 new digital services by the end of 2026. This is a development plan, not information that all of them are already available.
Benefits, contributions and police matters online
One of the most important areas is social security. Digital services include applications for maternity, paternity, and parental leave benefits, as well as funeral assistance.
Policyholders can also obtain a summary of their contribution account and a preliminary pension calculation. The profile allows users to gather data and information about their claims in one place.
Police platform Digipol offers over 30 services. These include certificates, police report requests, reporting lost ID cards, and submitting complaints and information.
They are also being developed Tax For All, planning system Ippodamos and the judicial platform iJusticeHowever, not all new solutions directly serve residents—some support the work of offices, courts, hospitals, and businesses.
How do I confirm my identity in CY Login?
Account creation and verification are two separate steps. Confirming your identity allows you to link your profile to a specific person and share protected data with them.
For individuals, verification through supported online banking is available, among other options. Other paths are also possible, according to system instructions and profile type.
CY Login is not restricted to Cypriot citizens only. However, access to a specific service or procedure depends on its own terms and conditions. Having an account does not automatically entitle you to all services.
Instructions for registration and identity verification can be found at CY Login official website.
CY Login, eID and documents on the phone are different things
It is easy to confuse three solutions developed in parallel.
CY Login used to log in to government services. eID electronic identity enables, among other things, online authentication and the creation of a qualified electronic signature. In turn, the application Digital Citizen allows you to store supported documents in digital form.
A program to subsidize 100,000 eIDs was launched in January 2025 for adult Cypriot citizens with a valid biometric ID. 30,000 eIDs are provided free of charge and another 70,000 for a €15 fee.
This is not a fee for a regular CY Login account, and the number covered by the program does not mean the number of eIDs already issued.
More services, but rollout still ongoing
The launch was announced in November Cyprus Shipping 1-Stop-Shop, covering, among other things, matters related to the registration of vessels and the authorisation to operate small boats.
We're also developing a benefits search engine that, after answering a few questions, identifies possible forms of assistance. The results provide a guide – granting support is determined by the appropriate procedure and meeting the criteria.
For users, the most important thing will be to check the requirements of a specific service: whether a verified profile, additional documents, or an electronic signature are required. The expansion of the shared login is intended to reduce formalities but does not eliminate the requirements applicable to individual procedures.
