The island is divided since 1974, there are police checks at the "Green Line" separating the two sides. The crossing points are open 24 hours, but this is an issue that may vary without notice, so it is recommended to get informed before crossing.
The crossing points through which tourists can travel from South to North Cyprus and vice versa, are as follows: "Ledra Palace Crossing" (only for pedestrians), "Ayios Dometios Crossing" (for vehicles), both in Nicosia and "Crossing Zodhia" west of the island. Others are: "Pergamos Crossing" and "Strovilia Crossing" (for pedestrians and vehicles), both in the British Sovereign Base of Dhekelia. It is recommended never attempt to cross the demarcation line from any other point other than one of those above.
If you rent a car in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and travel to the South, you should take in consideration that the vehicle does not include insurance for the other part of the island; this implies, the need to hire a new auto insurance after crossing to the South. In addition, you can not rent a car in the south of Cyprus and cross to the north with the car.
You can also cross with a private vehicle by any of several crossing points already mentioned, with the exception of Ledra Palace Crossing. However, it is recommended that before crossing by car or before you rent a car in the North of Cyprus, you should get informed of the conditions of the car insurance for that part of the island.
