The Law Firm of G. Vrikis & Associates LLC has been representing numerous clients in their application for Permanent Residence Permits in Cyprus. The below is a brief outline of the key provisions and documentation required for such an application to proceed further.

The Permanent Residence Permit – Regulation 6(2), is targeted to individuals who have fully and freely at their disposal a secured annual income, high enough to allow a decent living in Cyprus for them and dependents, without having to engage in any business, trade or profession in Cyprus – it is noted that this does not prevent them from being engaged in a business, trade or profession in any jurisdiction other than Cyprus.

The change shifts the resolution of competing residency claims from domestic statute to double tax treaty tie-breaker provisions, fundamentally altering how internationally mobile business owners and executives can establish Cyprus tax residency.

Cyprus Corporate Tax Is Now 15%: Who Pays 8 Points Less, And Why Non-Doms Pay More

Cyprus has raised its corporate income tax rate from 12.5% to 15%, but the total tax burden on distributed profits has actually fallen by more than eight percentage points for Cyprus-domiciled shareholders due to a dramatic cut in the Special Contribution for Defence on dividends. However, non-domiciled residents and foreign shareholders now face higher effective rates, fundamentally reshaping the island's tax competitiveness for different investor categories.

0%, 5% Or 17%: Cyprus Now Decides Your Dividend Tax By Where The Shareholder Sits

Cyprus has fundamentally changed how it taxes outbound dividends, interest, and royalties paid to associated companies. Depending on where the receiving shareholder is located, the same payment can now attract 0%, 5%, or 17% withholding tax—or trigger a complete denial of the deduction. Most international groups have not yet reviewed their ownership structures against these new rules, which took effect on 1 January 2026 and apply automatically based on the recipient's jurisdiction.
