Electric Skateboarding in Cyprus
Regulations 2026
In Cyprus, electric skateboard regulations remain unclear. Here's what we know and our advice for riding safely.
🧭 Official Status
Since 2022, Cyprus has regulated personal mobility devices (scooters, unicycles, etc.).
However, as the law only targets devices with handlebars, electric skateboards are not included.
As a result, they remain without legal status and are not authorised on public roads.
📋 Current Framework
Electric scooters are authorised on roads limited to 30 km/h, cycle paths, and certain shared zones.
E-skates, however, are not recognised by law → therefore prohibited on roads.
In practice, they are sometimes tolerated on pavements or pedestrian areas, at very low speed and without obstructing pedestrians.
🚧 Where to Ride
Stay at a walking pace in pedestrian areas.
Avoid traffic on the roadway.
Check local rules, as some municipalities may further restrict use.
Get third-party liability insurance (highly recommended).
🏁 In Summary
In Cyprus, electric skateboards are still in a legal grey area.
Officially not authorised on public roads, they may be tolerated at very low speeds in pedestrian areas.
While awaiting legal developments, it's best to ride discreetly and favour private or secure areas to avoid any risks.
🛹 What Evo-Spirit Recommends
In the absence of a precise legal framework in Cyprus, we recommend riding cautiously and opting for a board limited to 25 km/h with full lighting.
