The relationship is significantly shaped by their geographic proximity and shared regional interests. Both countries are members of the Union for the Mediterranean.

In 2024, tensions in the security relations have risen due to a warning from Hezbollah's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, about a "war without rules" if Cyprus allows Israel to use its territory in any conflict against Hezbollah.

In 2025, Lebanon and Cyprus agreed to sign a long-delayed maritime border agreement.
