A strategic mix of EU market access, investor-friendly tax systems and progressive regulations is making Cyprus an increasingly attractive option. 

In Episode 3: Rethinking Cyprus of our Global Indian Programme webinar series, our experts discussed how the country is gaining traction among Indian businesses looking at cross-border expansion or asset protection in the EU. Once known primarily as a holding company hub, Cyprus is now emerging as a preferred base for individuals and corporates alike.

Key discussion points:

  • How Cyprus is emerging as a tech hub or home for start-ups and global entrepreneurs
  • Tax incentives for corporates and individuals, including the non-dom regime, intellectual property structuring and employee tax optimisation
  • Relocation and residency options – permanent residence, digital nomad visa, permit for highly skilled employees
  • Foreign direct investment – ease of setting up business and attracting international skilled talent
  • Practical examples of global brands from the US, India and UK using Cyprus as the European hub

Our Global Indian programme provides agile and holistic support to navigate the investment landscape and evolving tax, regulatory and compliance needs across India, UK, UAE, Cyprus, Switzerland, Singapore, GIFT City and Germany.
