The Republic of Cyprus has a modest diplomatic presence. Most of its missions are located in fellow member-states of the European Union, and in the Middle Eastern countries, with which it shares historic and cultural linkages.

The unrecognized state of Northern Cyprus, also known as the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, has its own diplomatic missions, albeit only to Turkey, the sole country that recognizes it. Cyprus itself does not have a diplomatic presence in Turkey.

Honorary consulates are excluded from this listing.
