The CIT is 15%, while dividends for both residents and non-residents are often exempt from taxation.

The standard VAT rate is 19%, with reduced rates available for specific categories of goods and services.

Designing the right tax model for Cyprus begins with your revenue profile, activity type, and owners\u2019 tax residency, then layers on one-off fees and baseline rates. Tech companies can unlock additional savings through the IP Box; investors may benefit from Non-Dom status, and service businesses should establish the correct VAT position (B2B\/B2C, place-of-supply rules) to optimize cash flow.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cyprus blends EU-level transparency with competitive rates: 5% CIT, flexible dividend taxation based on residency, a standard VAT of 19% with the option for voluntary registration, and an IP Box regime with an effective ~3% on qualifying profits. The correct configuration gives you a head start and reduces tax risk as you scale across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want a structure tailored to your case and clear guidance on Cyprus taxes? <strong>Write to us and we will design the model, prepare the documents, open accounts, and set up your accounting.
