Cyprus residency programme requirements
A Residency Permit grants you the right to live in Cyprus permanently, but not to undertake employment. This generally suits those with international business concerns or other independent financial means, including retirees.
Investment effectively shortcuts the normal immigration requirements and provides near-immediate permanent residency rights to those investing on the island.
The primary requirement is the purchase of a new-build property for a minimum value of €300,000 + VAT. This property can be purchased either by the applicant or jointly by the applicant and their spouse and can subsequently be rented to provide income.
Secondly you will need to deposit €30,000 (+€5,000 per dependent) with a Cypriot bank that will be held as a form of bond for three years.
In addition to this the state will want to know that you have the means to live independently in Cyprus and as such you will need to prove that you have income of at least €30,000 (+€5,000 per dependent) per annum derived from non-Cypriot sources.
You need to have a clean criminal record and must not have had property frozen by the EU as a result of sanctions.
