Flying abroad - Cyprus

Newbie question…

I’m going to Cyprus in a few weeks and looking forward to taking my shiny new mini 4 pro. I know I need to get the EASA cert/registration (and the Cyprus documentation will be in English, so that’s an obvious option) but I was wondering if there’s a guide on the best place to get your qualifications ahead of a trip to Europe. I’ve seen Ireland, Cyprus and Luxembourg mentioned in other posts - each with different price and length of validity of the cert.

Is there a ‘best’ place to get this in terms of cost, ease of access and length of cert?

Thanks in advance!
