I used my TRNC. Licence on its own with no further documents required.
I also know of friends who use nothing but their TRNC Licence.
Hope this helps.

Have hired cars in both England (twice) and Belgium using only my TC drivers Licence, but had a German licence as a backup (not required).

I do not understand the current UK requirement for a police report.

I am currently driving in UK on a TrNC license and you need only that and your passport. If you use your Uk licence you have to register on DVLA government web site and obtain code to provide hire company for them to check you are genuine and also 2 proofs of address. Trust me use your Cyprus one

Thanks Bert, the requirement of the report would appear only to effect UK Licences when renting in the UK.

Thank god I changed my licence to a German one. valid for life with no 10 yr renewel.
