The establishment of a Cyprus International Business Branch requires that a specific 2 stage procedure is followed for:

  • Obtaining a Central Bank of Cyprus permission

  • Registration with the Registrar of Companies

Central Bank of Cyprus permission

The requirements are the same those for the Central Bank of Cyprus permission for an IBC.

Registration with the Registrar of Companies

After obtaining permission from the Central Bank, a branch of an overseas company must be registered with the Registrar of Companies. The following documents must be delivered to the Registrar:

  • Copy of the charter, memorandum and articles of association or other instrument defining the constitution of the company (translated in Greek). These documents must be legalised and "apostilled" in the country of origin by a notary public. Alternatively, legalisation is required both by a notary public and the Republic of Cyprus Consul in that country.

Towards A Single Market For Circularity: What The Circular Economy Act Is Likely To Deliver.

Have you ever thought of the lifecycle of your office chair? Funnily enough, it’s rather straight forward - once the raw materials are extracted and the chair is manufactured and distributed, it will be used for 5-10 years (if you are lucky), and then into the trash it goes. That’s just a small example of the traditional “take-make-waste” model which has been deemed as unsustainable and the transition to a circular economy has become increasingly urgent for Europe - a system designed to eliminate waste and keep resources in use for as long as possible.
