Separate Electoral Registers for Religious Groups Ahead of Cypriot Elections

The Ministry of Interior has announced the preparation of separate electoral registers for the Maronite, Armenian, and Latin religious groups, in preparation for the parliamentary elections on May 24, 2026. The registers will be posted from March 16 to March 26, 2026, at the offices of the District Administrations and the Ministry of Interior for inspection and submission of objections. Voters belonging to these religious groups are urged to check the registers and take the necessary steps to include or correct their details. The final electoral registers will be compiled on April 2, 2026, including new voters who reach the age of 18 by election day. This process ensures the legal representation of religious groups in the House of Representatives, in accordance with electoral law. Early inspection of the registers and submission of any corrections are important for the smooth conduct of the elections.
