Cyprus | Second Citizenship via Investment

Cyprus Citizenship

Cyprus’ citizenship scheme for investors is the fastest program of its kind in Europe. However, its hefty investment requirements make it suitable for only the highest value investors.

Cypriot Citizenship via Investment is easy and straightforward. You are only required to invest €2,000,000 in government bonds, real estate, or financial assets of Cypriot companies or organisations. In all cases except investments in real estates, you must also possess a permanent privately owned residence in Cyprus, the purchase price of which must be at least €500.000, plus VAT.

Full EU Citizenship in just four months!

One of the main objectives of the economic policy of Cyprus is to encourage foreign direct investment and to attract high-net-worth individuals to settle and do business in Cyprus. The key factors that make Cyprus an attractive destination for investment are the highly specialised human capital, the reliable legislative and regulatory framework, the stable tax system, and the safe and stable conditions prevailing in the country.

The benefits include:

Cyprus is an EU country; therefore, becoming a Cypriot citizen means becoming an EU citizen, which allows freedom of travel to and living in all EU countries
Visa-free travel to more than 140 countries, including Canada and Australia
You, your spouse and your dependants can live, work and attend schools/universities in Cyprus or in any other EU country
No double taxation: No extra tax on your income in either your home country or any other country
No maximum age limit
No maximum or minimum residency requirement
Full citizenship for life, which can be passed on to future generations
