Repatriation to Russia from Cyprus: Country-Specific Details
Russian Consulate in Nicosia
The Embassy of the Russian Federation in Cyprus is located at Ag. Prokopiou Street, Engomi, 2406 Nicosia. Tel: +357 22 77 46 22. Consular section working hours: Monday to Friday, 09:00-12:00. Consular clearance for the transport of remains ("Cargo 200") typically requires 1-2 working days.

Popular Flight Routes
The most common repatriation routes from Cyprus to Russia include Larnaca (LCA) to Moscow Sheremetyevo (SVO) and Moscow Domodedovo (DME), operated by various cargo carriers. Flights to St. Petersburg Pulkovo (LED) are available via connecting routes. For other Russian cities such as Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, or Krasnodar, we arrange onward domestic cargo transport from Moscow. Flight frequency and availability vary by season.
Preparation and "Cargo 200"
We prepare the deceased according to the family's wishes and local customs. The term "Cargo 200" (Gruz 200) is the official designation for the transport of human remains by air, originating from Soviet-era military transport codes. This designation is used on all shipping documents and customs declarations. The typical timeline for repatriation to Russia is 5-7 working days for cremation and urn transport, or 8-12 days for coffin repatriation.
Service Coverage Across Cyprus
We collect the deceased from any location across the Republic of Cyprus, including Paphos, Limassol, Larnaca, and Nicosia, as well as from hospitals and private residences. We also arrange repatriation from Northern Cyprus (Lefkosa, Girne/Kyrenia, Gazimagusa/Famagusta), handling the additional border crossing procedures required for transfer from the northern part of the island.
