Naklaw is a Cyprus law firm that’s helped international families relocate here since 2003. Cyprus permanent residence by investment gives you and your family the right to live in Cyprus for life, from a qualifying investment starting at €300,000, often within just a few months.
Cyprus immigration law isn't one process; it's several overlapping systems, investment-based residence, standard permits, and citizenship, each with its own timeline, paperwork, and pitfalls. Most people only discover which rules actually apply to them after wasting months on the wrong route, or after a rejected application at the Cyprus immigration office. We built our Immigration & Relocation practice to prevent exactly that, mapping the right path for you before you file anything.
Relocating to Cyprus means choosing between three real paths: investing your way to permanent residence, applying for a standard immigration permit, or pursuing a path to full citizenship. We provide immigration services in Cyprus across all three, and we'll tell you honestly which one actually fits your situation, not just the one that's easiest for us to sell.
If you can invest in Cyprus, permanent residence is often the fastest and most predictable route, but only if the investment, paperwork, and timing are correct. We manage the end-to-end application from application to approval.
