Your Gateway to Welder Jobs, Skilled Welding Hiring, and Industrial Recruitment in Cyprus.
Looking for a reliable welder recruitment agency in Cyprus? AtoZ Serwis Plus helps Cypriot construction groups, metal-fabrication workshops, and building-services contractors hire qualified welders — MIG/MAG, TIG (WIG), pipe, and structural — across Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos, and Famagusta.
Cyprus is an EU and euro-area member with a small but active industrial and construction economy. Welding here is mainly a construction and building-services trade — structural steel, balustrades, HVAC and plumbing pipework, and metal fabrication — and Cyprus relies significantly on third-country workers to staff these roles.
Construction is the engine of demand for welders, driven by residential and commercial development, tourism and hospitality projects, and infrastructure works. Major Cypriot construction and development groups, metal-fabrication workshops, and mechanical contractors all need welders, with additional demand from energy-related and marine services work. Because the local labour pool is limited, employers regularly recruit internationally for skilled trades.
We focus on welding, so we understand the difference between a MIG/MAG welder for structural steel, a TIG welder for stainless and aluminium, a pipe welder for mechanical and HVAC work, and a senior welding foreman — and we screen accordingly.
You gain a pre-vetted talent pool, faster time-to-hire, lower hiring risk through practical weld testing, lower total cost, and full compliance with Cypriot immigration and labour rules. We also share pay benchmarks and sourcing-market intelligence.
We recruit MIG/MAG welders, TIG (WIG) welders, pipe welders, structural steel welders, sheet metal fabricators, maintenance welders, and welding supervisors. Services include permanent placement, contract and project hiring, bulk crew hiring for construction, screening, EN ISO 9606 verification, CRMD permit coordination, visa documentation, relocation and onboarding.
| Industry | Key Talent Needs |
|---|---|
| Construction & Development | Structural welders, site welders, fabricators |
| Metal Fabrication & Workshops | MIG/MAG and TIG welders, balustrade and railing work |
| Building Services (HVAC, plumbing) | Pipe welders, TIG welders, installers |
| Energy & Marine Services | Pipe welders, maintenance welders, coded welders |
The figures below are indicative monthly gross pay (in euros) and vary by employer, sector, certification, and experience.
| Role | Indicative Monthly Gross (EUR) |
|---|---|
| Entry / general welder | €1,200 – €1,600 |
| Skilled MIG/MAG welder | €1,500 – €2,000 |
| TIG/pipe / coded welder | €1,800 – €2,500+ |
| Welding foreman/supervisor | €2,300 – €3,200+ |
Pay tends to be higher in Limassol and Nicosia; specialist pipe and coded welders command the upper bands. General employment permit applications must meet the applicable salary thresholds.
EU/EEA and Swiss nationals are free to work and only need to register their stay. Third-country welders are generally classed as skilled or support staff and follow the general employment route: the employer sponsors a residence-and-employment permit through the Civil Registry and Migration Department (CRMD), subject to a Department of Labour labour market test (advertising the vacancy locally) to confirm that no suitable Cypriot or EU candidate is available. Permits are typically issued for one to two years and are renewable. Upon arrival, the worker completes biometrics and registration (the “pink slip”). The highly-skilled “company of foreign interest” scheme (with a €2,500 monthly threshold) is aimed at corporate roles rather than trades.
We map your requirements and the correct permit route, source through our global networks, screen and EN ISO 9606-verify candidates, run practical weld tests, complete reference checks, coordinate the CRMD permit and visa, and support relocation and onboarding.
We source qualified welders from the Philippines, India, Nepal, Vietnam, Egypt, and across Eastern Europe, matching them with Cypriot construction and fabrication employers through the general employment route.
Sustained construction activity keeps demand for structural and pipe welders steady, and employers increasingly recruit internationally for skilled trades. Compliant, well-documented general employment applications — with EN ISO 9606 verification and a properly conducted labour market test — are essential for smooth approvals.
Quality comes from our focus on welding and rigorous screening. Compliance comes from following Cypriot immigration and labour rules and CRMD procedures at every step. Partnership comes from serving as a long-term advisor to the welding workforce. Employers stay with us because we help them build stronger welding teams faster and with less risk.

Hiring the right welder is an important decision for any Cypriot construction group, metal fabrication workshop, or building services contractor. The right hire delivers sound welds, passes inspection, and keeps projects on schedule; the wrong hire fails weld tests, compromises safety, and drives up turnover costs.
