Nicosia, Cyprus. Nicosia municipality said on Wednesday it will stop issuing paper invoices from January 1, 2027, and move fully to electronic communication for all bills and charges. The municipality said the measure is part of its environmental policy and broader efforts to modernise services.
Registration for electronic notices
The final paper rubbish collection fee invoices for 2026 have already been sent to residents in the municipal districts of Nicosia, Engomi and Ayios Dhometios.
Residents have been asked to use the QR code provided on their 2026 invoice to register contact details for each property so they can continue receiving updates and notices.
Officials said each invoice and each fee category has a separate QR code, meaning separate registration is required in each case.
Payment options for 2026 charges
Payments for 2026 charges can be made online through the municipality’s website or in person at citizen service offices and the central municipal treasury.
Card payments are accepted at service offices, while cash payments are accepted only at the central treasury.
Objections and deadline
The municipality also set out the process for submitting objections regarding discount criteria. Objections must include supporting documents and be submitted through municipal offices or by email.
Objection forms are available on the municipality’s website, and the deadline for submission is July 31, 2026.
Officials warned that late or incomplete submissions will not be examined.
