Cyprus is not only a yearly round holiday destination, the European island offers many tax advantages that can enhance investment returns and promote wealth

preservation for international investors and expatriates.


The Non-Domicile status is a special tax residency in Cyprus that provides significant

tax advantages. It is available to individuals who have not resided on the island for 17 out

of the last 20 years, and which requires you to spend more than 183 days per year in the

country or follow the 60-day rule under specified conditions. The 60-day rule allows

individuals to qualify as tax residents if they:


  • Do not reside in any other single country for more than 183 days

  • Are not tax residents in any other country

  • Spend at least 60 days in Cyprus

  • Have other significant ties to Cyprus, such as owning or renting property, or running a business



THE MAIN TAX ADVANTAGES INCLUDE:


Non-doms are exempt from the 17% Special Defence Contribution on dividends


  • Interest Income: Non-doms are exempt from the 30%SDC on interest income, whihch makes Cyprus particularly attractive for individuals with significant interest-bearing investments


  • Rental Income: Non-doms are exempt from the 3% SDC on 75% of gross rental income, significantly reducing the effective tax rate on rental income
