North vs South Cyprus — driving and rental differences

Flipio covers **both** South and North Cyprus. The driving side is the same (left), but a few practical details differ.

Currency & payments

South listings price in **EUR**; many north hosts use **TRY**. Flipio shows dual prices where helpful. Cash remains common with local hosts in the north.

Insurance & deposits

Always confirm what is included in the daily rate. South hosts often accept Stripe card payment; north hosts may prefer cash at pickup with a small online deposit.

Checkpoints

If you plan to cross the green line, verify that your host allows cross-border travel **before** booking. Not all vehicles are insured for both jurisdictions.
