Full access to EU single market, EU directives (Parent-Subsidiary, Interest & Royalties), and the Euro payment system.
The Cyprus IP Box applies an 80% deemed deduction to qualifying IP profits, resulting in an effective rate of just 2.5% — the lowest in the EU.
The Cyprus IP Box follows the OECD BEPS-compliant modified nexus approach, making it accepted across all major jurisdictions including the UK, Germany, and the US.
Patents, software, trademarks, and other qualifying intangible assets. Particularly valuable for SaaS companies, tech startups, and IP-heavy businesses.

FAQs
Common questions from international entrepreneurs considering Cyprus as their business base.
Yes. Cyprus companies can be fully owned and directed by non-residents. There is no requirement to be a Cyprus resident to incorporate or operate a Cyprus Ltd. You will need a registered office address in Cyprus, which we provide.
Standard incorporation takes 5–10 business days. An expedited process is available and can reduce this to 2–3 business days for an additional fee. The process is handled remotely — no need to travel to Cyprus.
Cyprus non-domiciled (non-dom) tax residents pay zero tax on dividends and interest income, regardless of their source. To qualify, you must spend at least 60 days per year in Cyprus and not be a tax resident of any other country. The status lasts for 17 years.
The Cyprus IP Box covers patents, copyrighted software, utility models, and other qualifying intangible assets developed through R&D. Crucially, commercially developed software — including SaaS products — qualifies without needing a registered patent.
Cyprus has double tax treaties with both Israel and the UK, covering withholding taxes on dividends, interest, and royalties. The UAE does not levy corporate or personal income tax, so treaty benefits are less critical — but Cyprus remains a preferred holding jurisdiction for UAE-based entrepreneurs.
A Cyprus corporate bank account is recommended for full operational substance, but not strictly required for all structures. We work with local and international banks to open accounts for Cyprus companies, including for non-resident directors.

Nominee directors are widely used in Cyprus — but using them incorrectly destroys your tax residency claim, exposes the company to CFC rules, and can constitute tax fraud in your home country. Here is what you need to know.
