# Cyprus entry and residence rights for Spanish citizens: European free movement > Spanish citizens have a right of entry and residence in Cyprus under European free movement. This is not a visa exemption and not a visitor day allowance. EU/EEA and Swiss free movement is governed by EU law, the EEA Agreement or the EU–Swiss Agreement on the Free Movement of Persons, as applicable. Conditions and registration requirements generally apply for residence beyond about three months in most member states. Stretch does not hold the country-specific registration procedure for this route, so it does not invent one; check the destination authority and the cited instrument. No visitor-day allowance applies. Residence conditions and registration requirements may apply beyond about three months. Provenance: the EU/EEA + Switzerland zone rule and its cited instrument; no country-row trust or lastChecked metadata exists.
