We are also not aware of any policy of police forces to make routine interpol notifications to Cyprus, which might account for this. As per our usual advice, anybody subject to Notification Requirements will almost certainly be issued with an Interpol notice if they travel to any Section 172 countries. Cyprus is of course not a Section 172 country. Outside of this, unless the individual is suspected to be travelling with the intention of committing sexual offences, or the individual is managed at higher levels (Level 2 or 3) of MAPPA, Interpol notices (or flags, as some refer to them) would not be issued and travel should be relatively hassle-free. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All views, opinions & contributions are my own and do not represent the views of Unlock unless specifically stated. 50

Can't find anything online about it, just wondering if anyone had more info ? I suppose the obvious question is how would they find out? Unless they have access to the PNC, they will not know about your conviction or being on the SOR. Well, I also understand (this from a slightly less reliable source) that the pre-Brexit cooperation is gradually coming back, so for example there is now limited data exchange between SIS (Schengen Information System) and the UK's own systems. So "discreet alerts" will likely become more common at Schengen borders... can you share this source,please? Sadly not, it's 2 private individuals whom I know personally and who are not employed in any official capacity but do have their fingers on the pulse of border issues...) There is no indication in the College of policing guidance to say that UK police have access to the Shengen database again. I'm due to have a beer with one of them over the weekend so I'll see if I can get any more info ! 26
