Cyprus Tax Residency Lawyers
Cyprus tax residency and non-dom planning from €1,950 + VAT, with the immigration, tax registration and evidence coordinated by one team.
Free consultation · No commitment · We respond within 24 hours
We help internationally mobile individuals establish Cyprus tax residence under the 183-day or 60-day route and document their non-dom position. The service can include the relevant residence permit, TIN registration through Tax For All, the evidence file, residence-certificate request and first personal tax return. Our fixed fee starts at €1,950 + VAT, plus government charges and actual expenses. Book a free consultation before changing your travel, home or company arrangements.
What we do for you
We first map your travel days, permanent home, Cyprus work, business or office, existing domicile position, income sources and ties to other countries. We then identify the viable route and provide a written evidence plan. The agreed work can cover the residence permit, TIN registration, non-dom documentation, residence certificate, first personal return and coordination with advisers in the country you are leaving.
Where the plan also needs a Cyprus company, we coordinate the company formation and the governance needed for the actual facts; a company or resident director does not by itself establish personal or corporate tax residence. Before you move, compare the wider relocation packages and the Cyprus/UK non-dom analysis so the immigration, tax and corporate steps are sequenced correctly.

Questions before you instruct us
A qualifying non-dom pays no Special Defence Contribution on dividends (otherwise 5% on profits earned from 2026, with transitional 17% rules for certain earlier profits) or on passive interest (otherwise 17%). Dividends are also generally exempt from income tax, so the main remaining charge is the 2.65% GHS contribution, assessed on up to €180,000 of income a year. Rental income has not carried SDC since 2026, and income tax, foreign tax and treaty rules still need their own analysis.
Our Immigration & Tax Residency package is a fixed €1,950 + VAT for EU nationals (€2,300 for non-EU nationals), covering the residence permit, tax registration and your non-dom evidence. If you also need a Cyprus company, the Company + Tax Relocation packages are €4,250 + VAT on the 183-day route or €5,850 + VAT on the 60-day route. Government fees and actual expenses are added at cost, and the fee is agreed in writing before you pay.
Tax residency is measured over the calendar year: you qualify for a year once you have met the 183-day or the 60-day conditions in it, so the timing depends on when you arrive and how you plan your days. TIN registration through Tax For All is an online step we complete for you early in the process, the residence permit follows its own immigration timetable, and a tax residence certificate is requested separately. We set out your personal timeline in writing at the first consultation.
No. Under the 60-day rule you must maintain a permanent home in Cyprus that you own or rent, and a rental lease satisfies the condition. The 183-day rule has no property requirement at all. Buying property is only relevant if you are separately pursuing permanent residence by investment.
The 183-day route rests on presence alone: more than 183 days in Cyprus in the tax year. The 60-day route needs at least 60 days in Cyprus, no more than 183 days in any other single state, a permanent Cyprus home you own or rent, and a Cyprus business, employment or office that continues throughout the relevant tax year. Since 2026 you no longer need to show you are not tax resident elsewhere, but dual residence may still need treaty analysis.
Non-dom status is not an application that expires: you keep it while you remain Cyprus tax resident and not domiciled, until you have been resident in 17 of the preceding 20 tax years. Each year you must keep meeting the residency conditions, hold your travel, home and activity evidence, and file your personal tax return. We handle the annual return from €350 a year per person and re-check the conditions whenever your circumstances change.
