Head of mission: Mr. Emomali Rahmon, Honorary Consul (confirmed in the diplomatic list of Cyprus, 29 Nov 2024)
Cyprus is an appealing destination for some Tajikistanis due to its rich cultural heritage and strategic location in the Mediterranean. The island attracts many international visitors, making it a significant hub for travel and cultural exchange.
Cyprus is generally considered safe for tourists, including those from Tajikistan. It ranks 11th among 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night. However, according to the Global Peace Index, Cyprus is ranked 86th out of 160 countries, which is lower than Tajikistan's ranking of 69th. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in Cyprus is 1.3 per 100,000 people, compared to Tajikistan's lower rate of 0.9. Female murder rates also reflect a similar trend, with Cyprus at 1.1 and Tajikistan at 0.2. Regarding organized crime, Cyprus has a better score in certain areas, such as arms trafficking and resource crime, but Tajikistan has lower scores in state crime and human trafficking. Overall, while Cyprus presents some safety challenges, it remains a popular destination for tourists.
