Query **1,678 Cypriot statutes** -- from Ο περί Προστασίας Δεδομένων Προσωπικού Χαρακτήρα Νόμος and Ποινικός Κώδικας to Αστικός Κώδικας, εταιρικό δίκαιο, and more -- directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

If you're building legal tech, compliance tools, or doing Cypriot legal research, this is your verified reference database.

Built by [Ansvar Systems](https://ansvar.eu) -- Stockholm, Sweden

---

## Why This Exists

Cypriot legal research means navigating cylaw.org and the cyprus.gov.cy legislation portal across statutes in both Greek and English -- Cyprus has a unique legal system combining common law heritage with EU membership. Whether you're:

- A **lawyer** validating citations in a brief or contract
- A **compliance officer** checking Cypriot GDPR implementation or financial services obligations
- A **legal tech developer** building tools on Cypriot law
- A **researcher** tracing EU directive transposition across Cyprus's bilingual legal system

...you shouldn't need dozens of browser tabs and manual cross-referencing between Greek and English texts. Ask Claude. Get the exact provision. With context.

This MCP server makes Cypriot law **searchable, cross-referenceable, and AI-readable**.
