In 2024, in Northern Cyprus, the decision of the Commission for Determining the Minimum Wage established a significant increase in the minimum wage. Its net size after deducting all taxes was 24,000 TL , gross 27,587 TL .
The previous minimum wage level from July 2023 to January 2024 was 18,103 TL .
The move was taken in response to rising costs of living and economic changes in the region. Wage considerations continue to be a focus for local authorities as they strive to ensure fair working conditions for all workers.
Some payments and duties, tariffs for government services, including fines in case of violation of traffic rules in Northern Cyprus, depend on the minimum wage rate. This latest increase is part of ongoing efforts to adapt the region's economic policies to current economic realities.
