Cyprus-LTD
A Ltd in Cyprus is far more for a buyer than just the legal shell around a property – it is a fully established, legally secure financial and investment base within the EU on which assets, further projects and international structures can be built. The following shows which doors such a Ltd opens.
1. Solid financial and tax foundation with en European Union
A Cypriot Ltd is a fully-fledged EU capital company with a Cypriot tax residency. This offers you:
​
-
a reputable EU corporate profile that facilitates the opening of bank accounts
-
high acceptance by payment service providers and contractual partners
-
clear KYC/AML structures that simplify international business relationships
-
an internationally recognised, transparent legal form
Corporate taxation in Cyprus is attractive:
​
-
15% corporate tax
-
no trade tax
-
0% withholding tax on many dividends, interest and licence fees (if the requirements are met)
-
double taxation agreements with numerous countries
Your advantage:
With the Ltd, you not only hold a property, but a tax-efficient EU company through which you can invest, work and move capital.
2. Asset protection and a sevure foundation for your capital
A Ltd offers a clear separation between private and corporate assets. For you, this means:
​
-
Limitation of liability: The property and other assets are held by the company – not in your personal name.
-
Protection from personal seizure: Creditors do not access the property directly, but at most the company shares.
-
No inheritance tax in Cyprus: Assets can be passed on in a structured way through the transfer of shares.
-
Option for additional protection mechanisms: The Ltd can later also be integrated into trust structures to organise succession, family assets or long-term security.
Your advantage:
The Ltd can become a reliable, protected anchor point of your asset structure – particularly suitable for long-term stability.
3. Tax optimisation instruments (NID, IP box & other models)
Cyprus offers modern tax tools:
​
NID (Notional Interest Deduction):
Equity that is contributed to the Ltd can be taken into account with a notional interest deduction. This can reduce the effective tax burden from 15% to approx. 2.5–5%.
IP box regime:
Qualifying income from intellectual property can, under certain conditions, be effectively taxed at around 2.5%.
Your advantage:
The Ltd is a versatile instrument through which you can, if required, build highly efficient tax structures for various business models or sources of income.
4. Basis for potential emigration, non-dom status and lifestyle planning
A Ltd can play a central role if you wish to engage more strongly in Cyprus – whether for business or private purposes.
The non-dom status makes it possible to receive foreign capital income on a tax-favoured basis for many years.
The Ltd provides you with an economic anchor point that is advantageous for banking discussions, authorities, residence or tax planning.
You thereby document clear economic substance in Cyprus.
Your advantage:
You create a credible basis for any future residence or tax decisions without having to enter into commitments today.
5. International structuring and connection with other countries
A Cypriot Ltd can be seamlessly integrated into international asset and corporate structures:
​
-
Use as a holding company
-
Holding of participations in Europe and worldwide
-
Acquisition of additional real estate domestically and abroad
-
Management of licences, trademark rights and intellectual property
-
Clear structure for distributions, reinvested profits and international capital management
Your advantage:
The Ltd can become the central hub for your Europe-wide or global investments.
6. Property-related special advantages: exit, succession, structure
Tax-optimised exit: You can transfer the shares of the Ltd in a later sale instead of selling the property itself.
Discreet change of ownership: In the land register, the company remains registered; only the shareholder structure changes.
Simple succession: The transfer takes place via share transactions – clear, structured and without Cypriot inheritance tax.
​
Your advantage:
The Ltd offers you elegant, tax-advantageous and discreet long-term options for asset management.
