Only new residential property purchased directly from a developer qualifies for Cyprus permanent residency by investment. The minimum purchase price is €300,000 (excl. VAT). Secondary market (resale) properties do not qualify. The 5% reduced VAT rate applies to the first €350,000 of purchase price for qualifying buyers, effectively reducing the total investment cost.
No. Cyprus permanent residency by investment requires purchasing a new property directly from a developer — resale or secondary market properties do not qualify for the programme. If you are interested in a resale property, Mirabello Consultancy can advise on alternative Cyprus residency routes that may be available based on your income and circumstances.
Cyprus's non-domicile (non-dom) regime exempts qualifying residents from tax on dividend income, interest income, and capital gains on overseas assets for a period of 17 years. No inheritance tax applies in Cyprus. The 60-day tax residency rule allows full Cyprus tax residency by spending just 60 days per year in Cyprus. This makes Cyprus one of the most tax-efficient EU jurisdictions for property investors.
Not yet. Cyprus is an EU member state but has not yet joined the Schengen Area. This means Cyprus permanent residency cardholders cannot freely enter the Schengen Area without a separate Schengen visa. Cyprus is expected to join Schengen in the coming years. For investors requiring immediate Schengen access, Greece (Golden Visa from €250,000), Malta (MPRP), or Portugal (from €250,000) are alternative EU options.
Cyprus permanent residency property must be retained throughout your residency. Selling the property without reinvesting in another qualifying property would affect your residency status. Most investors maintain the property for the 8 years required to qualify for Cypriot citizenship, after which the property requirement no longer applies to citizenship retention.
