FAQ - Incorporating Your Company in Cyprus

What are the benefits of incorporating in Cyprus?

Cyprus is considered to be one of the most attractive jurisdictions in Europe to form a limited liability company due to its advantageous tax system. Cyprus holding companies enjoy all the benefits that the low tax jurisdiction has to offer such as full exemption from tax on dividend income, no withholding tax for dividends paid to non-residents, no capital gains tax and one of the lowest company tax rates in Europe of just 12.5%.

In addition, Cyprus has more advantages such as its corporate laws which are based on the English Companies Act and are in line with EU directives, low incorporation fees and a quick incorporation process. Moreover, Cyprus has a wide double tax treaty network and is currently negotiating for more.

What is the procedure of incorporating in Cyprus?

Before any other steps are taken, the Registrar of Companies must be approached to approve whether the name by which the company is proposed to be incorporated is acceptable.
After the name is approved, the necessary documentation needs to be prepared and filed. Such documents are the articles of incorporation and memorandum of association, registered address, directors and secretary.

What are “corporate documents”?

It is recommended to ensure that upon the incorporation of the company, its beneficial owners or other appropriate officials are provided with copies of all corporate documents. Such corporate documents normally comprise:

Certificate of Incorporation
Memorandum of Association
Articles of Association
A share certificate

What is the Memorandum and Articles of Association?

Every Cyprus Company must have its own memorandum and articles of association. The memorandum contains the basic information of the company such as the company name, registered office, the objects of the company and so on. Care must be taken that the first few object clauses are tailored to the specific circumstances and main business objects and activities of the company.

The articles specify rules about the governance of the internal management of the company and regulations about the rights of the members (appointment and powers of directors, transfer of shares, etc).

What are the share capital requirements?

There is no legal requirement as to the minimum or maximum share capital of the company.

What is the minimum number of directors and shareholders, and who can be one?

Under Cyprus Law, every company limited by shared must have a minimum of one director, one secretary and one shareholder. From a tax planning point of view, it is often required that the company is shown to be managed and controlled in Cyprus and, accordingly, it is recommended that the majority of the directors appointed are Cyprus residents.
