What our clients say about us

I required a guaranteed right to live and work in Cyprus after the 90 day allowance. George Kosasvili managed the process for me brilliantly and I now have a 1 year Visa. George handled all my questions with patience and gave me prompt responses that ensured I had no worries. I highly recommend this practice

DAVID CONWAY
Commercial Director

I am very grateful to George Kosasvili for his attention to detail in preparing my application for temporary residence. The application involved several documents which George initially identified and then commented upon promptly, until the application could be made. George has been helpful throughout. Best wishes.

JONATHAN TAYLOR
– Barrister

George was amazing! He was with me every step of the way and made everything so simple and easy. He was quick with replies to all my messages and explained everything clearly and simply. I would highly recommend him and Polycarpos – they know exactly what they are doing!

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The Cyprus Investment Program (CBI) was closed in 2020. As such, the Cyprus Citizenship by Investment is no longer available as a direct part to a Cypriot passport.

The Cyprus Investment Program is a regulation that amongst other that allowed people to obtain citizenship in Cyprus provided they have invested a minimum amount of funds in qualifying investments and comply with certain anti-money laundering requirements. *Please note that this program was closed in 2020 and no longer valid.

Under the new citizenship regulations voted in August 2020, Cypriot Developers are excluded from being regulated citizenship service providers.

The minimum investment is €300,000 in residential and commercial property or purchase of shares of local companies or investment funds.

For large amounts such as those required for citizenship applications, the banks conduct enhanced due diligence through international companies. They requires evidence of the source and size of wealth and the funds to be used. In addition, some background checks are being made with global databases, local databases and international authorities (such as Interpol) to make sure that the applicant did not obtain his wealth from illegal sources. The government also uses international specialized companies to verify the above.
Most of the checks are being done in the background so they don’t come at a hustle to the applicant. The applicant will however need to prepare the economic information and evidence required as well as his clean criminal record certificate and other certificates required.

The Cyprus citizenship approval comes approximately in 6 months after the application is made at which stage, the applicant must provide bio-metrics and take the necessary steps for the issuance of the passport. The passport is issued 9 months after the application.

You can invest in other areas of the economy except real estate but in any case, there is a minimum requirement of buying a house of €500.000. If investing in commercial real estate, businesses in Cyprus or Alternative Investment Funds, then you would need to invest a minimum total of €2.500.000; €2.000.000 in the investment and €500.000 for the house which will be your permanent residence.
