Cyprus firms urged to shape future of EU construction rules

The Enterprise Europe Network Cyprus informed stakeholders of a European Commission public consultation on the proposed Construction Services Act, a flagship initiative under the Single Market Strategy.

The network, whose coordinator in Cyprus is the local chamber of commerce, urged businesses, professional bodies and other interested parties to take part in the consultation process, which aims to shape the future regulatory environment of the construction services sector across the European Union.

The proposed legislation seeks to modernise the regulatory framework governing construction services, reflecting evolving market conditions and the need for greater coherence across member states.

It also aims to boost sector productivity, addressing structural challenges and supporting innovation and efficiency within the industry.

A further objective is to facilitate cross-border provision of services, with particular emphasis on improving conditions for small and medium-sized enterprises seeking to operate beyond their national markets.

The initiative forms part of the broader Single Market Strategy of the European Commission, which is designed to strengthen the functioning and competitiveness of the European internal market.

The deadline for participation in the public consultation has been set for April 20, 2026.

Stakeholders are invited to complete the online survey available through the Enterprise Europe Network Cyprus website in order to submit their views and feedback.

Participation in the consultation requires the creation or use of an EU Login account, which is necessary to access and complete the electronic questionnaire.
