The Civil Registry and Migration Department ("CRMD") has recently announced a number of changes in the policy for issuance or renewal of visitor's permits for third-country nationals. The recent changes introduced, affect mainly the financial criteria that should be satisfied by the interested individuals for the submission of the relevant application.

Background

According to Aliens and Immigration Regulations, a residence permit can be issued to third- country nationals who would like to reside in Cyprus beyond the maximum allowable number of days available under a Cyprus tourist visa (i.e. 90 days for every 180 days period). In essence, this specific type of permit is suitable for individuals who would like to reside in Cyprus for extended holidays, as well as for pensioners who would like to settle in Cyprus.

Cyprus has introduced an accelerated citizenship pathway for highly skilled foreign employees working for qualifying companies in the Republic. This framework, sometimes called the "Golden Knowledge" route, allows eligible professionals to obtain citizenship after four or five years of qualifying residence, depending on their Greek language proficiency. The regime represents a significant development for international professionals who have established their careers and lives in Cyprus.
