Overview
Individuals wishing to carry out heating system inspections and air-conditioning system inspections in Cyprus in accordance with the Regulation of the Energy Efficiency of Buildings Laws of 2006 to 2020 must obtain a certificate of registration from the Energy Service of the Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry.
Registration is open to individuals (citizens of the Republic of Cyprus or an EU Member State).
Heating system inspectors and air-conditioning system inspectors licensed and/or certified in other Member States may establish in Cyprus and provide heating system and/or air-conditioning system inspection services in Cyprus provided they register as a heating system inspector and/or air-conditioning system inspector.
Heating system inspectors and air-conditioning system inspectors established in other Member States may provide services in Cyprus without registering and without obtaining a licence, provided they travel to Cyprus to provide temporary and occasional services, are established in another Member State and are engaged in the lawful pursuit of the profession in that Member State, with the right in that State to provide services similar to those which they intend to provide in Cyprus.
The competent authority decides case by case if the services are being provided on a temporary and occasional basis, especially in terms of their duration, frequency, regularity and continuity, and keeps a list of service providers for control purposes.
The services provided must not exceed five (5) jobs a year.
