Sometimes, the grass really is greener on the other side of the fence.
Beyond borders, a better future awaits your business, your family, and you.
Cyprus, a Smarter Way of Life and Business
The way companies operate is changing. Political cycles are shorter. Regulation is heavier. Long-term planning has become harder, especially for US-based and international founders.
Cyprus Direct exists for companies and founders who want clarity, stability, and control, without sacrificing growth or quality of life.
Who We Are
We made the move ourselves. We're not consultants selling theory, but operators who’ve navigated international business, relocation decisions, and jurisdictional complexity first-hand.
We founded Cyprus Direct to offer something simple and rare: a calm, credible way to structure business and life for the long term.
What We Do
We help founders and companies to:
-
Establish a strong, EU-based business presence in Cyprus
-
Structure operations in a clear, compliant, and scalable way
-
Navigate company setup, banking, and ongoing operations
-
Explore residency and relocation options when it makes sense
You tell us what matters, growth, EU access, predictability, lifestyle, future-proofing, and we design the right setup around your real needs.
No templates. No unnecessary complexity. Just structures that work.
Why Cyprus. Why Now.
Cyprus combines EU credibility with a business environment designed for long-term planning:
-
A stable EU legal framework
-
Predictable, established business rules
-
International credibility with banks and partners
-
Lower operational friction than larger EU jurisdictions
-
Increasing alignment with Schengen and EU mobility standards
A Clear and Competitive Tax Environment
Cyprus offers one of the most competitive and predictable tax frameworks within the EU.
For many internationally active companies, this includes:
-
A 12.5% corporate tax rate
-
No withholding tax on dividends to non-residents (in most cases)
-
No tax on gains from the sale of shares
-
An established IP regime that can significantly reduce tax on qualifying income
-
Access to EU tax treaties and full regulatory credibility
Tax is never one-size-fits-all. But when structured correctly, Cyprus can materially improve after-tax efficiency while remaining fully compliant and future-proof.
For many founders, Cyprus is no longer a “nice option”.
It’s a strategic anchor in an uncertain environment.
Business and Life, Aligned
Cyprus allows companies and founders to:
-
Plan beyond election cycles
-
Reduce political and regulatory noise
-
Operate globally from one smart base
-
Live in a safe, English-speaking, family-friendly environment
-
Build without burning out
Here, business doesn’t compete with life. It supports it.
