Every euro you save through smart tax planning is only real if it survives an audit. A Cyprus tax residency certificate, the right corporate structure, and a properly documented IP strategy are not separate paperwork exercises; they are one connected position that has to make sense together. That's exactly what our Tax & International Structuring division was built to deliver, working alongside our Corporate & Business Services team, who handles the entity your tax strategy actually sits inside.
We've organized our tax services around the two things that actually move the needle for founders and investors moving to, or operating through, Cyprus: securing genuine Cyprus tax residency and structuring intellectual property and cross-border income correctly. Here's how we support you at every stage.
Getting a Cyprus tax residency certificate is not just about spending 183 days on the island; there's more than one path, and the wrong one can cost you the benefits you moved here for. We manage your residency qualification end-to-end, so the certificate you receive actually protects you.
Read More About Cyprus Tax Residency →We assess your personal situation, map the fastest, legitimate route to becoming a Cyprus tax resident, and manage the application until your certificate is in hand.
Learn More About Individual Tax Residency →The traditional route involves spending more than 183 days a year in Cyprus. We help you track, document, and prove your presence correctly, so your claim never gets questioned.
Learn More About 183-day Rule →A faster path for people who can't commit to 183 days but meet the other conditions. We confirm you qualify before you rely on it, not after.
Learn More About 60-day Rule →Moving your tax residency is a life decision, not just a filing. We plan the move around your income, assets, and other obligations, so nothing is left exposed.
Learn More About Relocation Planning →Once your residency is secured, we structure how your income and entities interact across borders, so your Cyprus tax residency certificate actually delivers the savings it promises.
Learn More About International Structuring →If your business creates or holds intellectual property, Cyprus offers one of the most competitive IP tax regimes in Europe, but only if your structure genuinely qualifies. We build IP holding structures that pass scrutiny, not just to look efficient on a slide deck.
View Full Service Page →We design the entity that will actually hold your intellectual property, structured to qualify for Cyprus's favorable IP tax treatment from the outset.
Learn More About IP Holding Structures →Not every asset qualifies for IP Box benefits. We assess exactly which of your patents, software, or IP rights are eligible before you build a strategy around the wrong ones.
Learn More About Qualifying IP Assets →We combine IP Box treatment with your broader corporate tax position, so intellectual property becomes a genuine advantage rather than an isolated benefit.
Learn More About Tax Optimization →Software companies, R&D-heavy businesses, and tech founders get a tax structure built around how they actually create value, not a generic template borrowed from another industry.
Learn More About Tech Businesses →If your IP is developed, licensed, or exploited across more than one country, we make sure the treatment holds up in every jurisdiction involved, not just Cyprus.
Learn More About Cross-Border IP Planning →Transferring IP into or out of a Cyprus structure has to be documented correctly to preserve its tax treatment. We handle the assignment so that the transfer itself never becomes the weak point.
