We are Cyprus Tax Advice Experts and help with international tax planning.
Opening a Cyprus Limited company is easy. Keeping it compliant, substance-rich, and tax-efficient in a global environment is where the real work begins. Most agencies will sell you a structure and wish you good luck.
At Cyprus-Companyformation.com, we work backwards from your ultimate goal: Peace of Mind.
The era of “paper companies” & “Shell companies” is… Slightly over.
With global CFC Rules (Controlled Foreign Company), CRS (Common Reporting Standard), and the 2026 Tax Reforms, as well as the tax-man using AI-powered systems to find fraud, your structure must be bulletproof.
We don’t just file forms; we design Tax Architectures that withstand scrutiny.
The “Exit Strategy” (Pre-Migration Planning)
Moving to Cyprus? Great. But what about the country you are leaving?
Substance & “Management and Control”
A Cyprus company must be managed from Cyprus. If you live in London and run your Cyprus LTD from your laptop, HMRC will tax you in London.
The Non-Dom & Dividend Route
The Goal: 0% Tax on Dividends for 17 years.
The Trap: Failing the “Domicile” test or incorrectly declaring foreign income. We map out exactly how to remit funds tax-free.
| The Common Tax Trap | The "Paper Company" Risk | Our Strategic Solution |
|---|---|---|
| "The Laptop CEO" | You live in the UK/DE but use a Cyprus LTD. Tax authorities claim your company is resident where you are. | Management & Control Structuring: Local directors, Cyprus board meetings, and substance proof. |
| "The Transfer Pricing Error" | Your Cyprus HoldCo lends money to your foreign subsidiary interest-free. | Arm's Length Compliance: We calculate compliant interest rates and draft inter-company loan agreements. |
| "The 60-Day Rule Fail" | You stay in Cyprus for 60 days but accidentally spend 184 days in another country. | Residency Calendar Audits: We track your days to ensure you don't trigger residency elsewhere. |
We don’t sell. We diagnose.
