Rises in intra-community goods arrivals reporting 1 January 2026
Cyprus has increased the annual thresholds for Intrastat arrivals reporting. This is the monthly declarations of goods’ movements across EU member state internal borders. This is only required of businesses that exceed the ‘dispatches’ (‘exports’ to another EU state) and / or arrivals (‘imports’ of goods from other EU states).

- the reference period;
- the flow (arrival, dispatch);
- the commodity;
- the value of the goods;
- the quantity of the goods;
- the partner Member State;
- the nature of the transaction.
