    Common Questions

    Cyprus Incorporation FAQs

    Can a US company own 100% of a Cyprus Private Limited Company (Ltd)?

    Yes. The EU permits 100% foreign ownership of a Cyprus Private Limited Company (Ltd) by a US individual or US corporate parent, with no local shareholder requirement.

    Do I need to be a Cyprus resident to be a director?

    No, Cyprus does not require directors of a Private Limited Company (Ltd) to be locally resident, though a registered local office address is mandatory and we provide this as part of formation.

    How long does Cyprus company registration take?

    Typical registration timelines run 2–3 weeks, depending on document notarisation, apostille processing, and capital deposit requirements.

    What is the corporate tax rate in Cyprus?

    Cyprus applies 12.5% one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the EU. The US-Cyprus tax treaty framework and EU parent-subsidiary directive help prevent double taxation on profits repatriated to a US parent.

    Can I use one Cyprus entity to trade across the whole EU?

    Yes, once registered in Cyprus, the entity can trade, invoice, and register for VAT OSS to sell across all 27 EU member states under the EU single market framework.
