Application: templates and forms

The written request to a school in Cyprus for a copy of the leaving certificate (apolytirio), a certificate of studies with the marks for each year, or a certificate of attendance: the graduate's details as the school keeps them, the name while at school if it has changed, the year of graduation, the number of copies and the purpose. If the records are now kept elsewhere, it asks for the request to be passed on to whoever keeps them. It serves for a job, a university application or recognition abroad.

A written request by an employee or former employee in Cyprus asking the employer for a certificate of employment: the job and the period worked, and, if wanted, the pay or an assessment of the work. It serves a new employer, a bank, a landlord, a residence permit or studies. A written request, with a date for the reply, leaves proof of what was asked for and when.

The request in which an employee in Greece, when the contract ends, asks the employer for the certificate of employment under art. 678 of the Greek Civil Code, which serves as proof of previous service for a new employer. The certificate states the kind and length of the work, and the quality of the work and the employee's conduct only if the employee asks for that specifically — so the request lets you choose what it should state. One document does the work of both a certificate and a reference.

The request in which a parent in Greece asks for parental leave under art. 28 of Law 4808/2021: the child, the dates and statements on the conditions. Each parent is entitled to four months until the child turns eight, after a year with the same employer, and DYPA, the public employment service, pays the first two months at the level of the minimum wage. It goes in at least a month ahead, asks for any refusal or postponement to be reasoned in writing, and asks the employer to file form E.14 in ERGANI II.

A working parent's written request to the employer in Cyprus for parental leave under Law 216(I)/2022: the child, the dates, the length and the leave already taken, with room for the employer's reply. After six months' service the Law gives up to 18 weeks for each child until the child turns 15 (21 with a disability), from one day to five weeks a year (seven with three or more children), on a request made at least three weeks before the start. Social Insurance Services pay a benefit for part of the leave, eight weeks for the first child and more for later children, on the parent's own separate claim.

The written request to the Social Insurance Services in Cyprus for a statement of one's insurance record: periods of insurance, insurable earnings, contributions and employers for the period you choose. It serves to check that an employer paid the contributions, before a claim for a benefit or pension, or for use in another country. It is also made as a request for access to personal data under art. 15 of the General Data Protection Regulation. With a verified CY Login account the statement can also be seen on gov.cy; this letter is for asking in writing, at the district office, a Citizen Service Centre or by email.

The request to a Greek school for a certificate of studies, a certificate of attendance or a copy of the school-leaving certificate (apolytirio): the graduate's details as the school keeps them (father's and mother's names, date of birth, name while at school), the year of graduation, the document wanted, the number of copies and the purpose. Graduates from the 2016–2017 school year on can get their apolytirio from gov.gr; this request serves older titles and certificates that are not there.

An employee's written request to the employer in Cyprus for paid annual leave: dates, working days, the leave year and who covers, with room for the employer's approval on the same sheet. Under the Annual Leave with Pay Law of 1967, a full year's work earns at least 20 working days on a five-day week and 24 on a six-day week; a contract may give more. A written request leaves a record of what was asked for and what was approved.

The request in which an employee in Greece asks for paid annual leave (Greek Labour Law Code, Presidential Decree 62/2025): the dates, the working days, the year, whether all of the leave or a part of it is asked for, and who covers the work, with room for the employer's answer. From 1 January 2026 leave may be split into more than two parts only at the employee's written request, and this request serves as one; the employer records the leave in ERGANI II afterwards, within the following month.
