NUTS statistical regions of Cyprus

The Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) is a geocode standard for referencing the subdivisions of Cyprus for statistical purposes.[1] The standard is developed and regulated by the European Union.[2] The NUTS standard is instrumental in delivering the European Union's Structural Funds. The NUTS code for Cyprus is CY and a hierarchy of three levels is established by Eurostat. Cyprus does not have subdivisions covered by the NUTS levels, as the population is small enough to be covered in one level. Below these is a further levels of geographic organisation - the local administrative unit (LAU). In Cyprus, the LAU 1 is districts and the LAU 2 is municipalities.
