Cyprus is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, it therefore has no de jure borders. There is one exception; Cyprus has borders with the two UK-manned bases of Akotiri and Dhelika on the island.

In terms of its de facto borders, the UNFICYP ceasefire line that divides the island between northeast and southwest forms the border between Turkish-Occupied Northern Cyprus and the independent Republic of Cyprus. So, one may say, that Republic of Cyprus borders with Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and vice versa. However, since Turkey is the only country that recognizes the TRNC, this is not considered a de jure border.

In terms of countries near to Cyprus:

Turkey to the north 80 kilometers (50 mi),

Syria and Lebanon to the east 105 kilometres (65 mi) and 108 kilometres (67 mi), respectively,

Israel to the southeast 200 kilometres (124 mi),

Egypt to the south 380 kilometres (236 mi) ,

Greece to the northwest: 280 kilometres (174 mi) to the small Dodecanesian island of Kastelorizo (Megisti), 400 kilometres (249 mi) to Rhodes, and 800 kilometres (497 mi) to the Greek mainland.

Crete (part of Greece) to the west 548 kilometers (341 mi).

It is not a country. It is an area of the Republic of Cyprus occupied by Turkey since 1974. No other country than Turkey recognises that part as an independent country.
