Cyprus offers an attractive Non-Domicile (Non-Dom) tax regime designed to encourage individuals to become tax residents without being subject to the 17% Special Defence Contribution (SDC) on dividend and interest income. By obtaining Non-Dom status, eligible individuals benefit from zero taxation on dividends for up to 17 years, making Cyprus one of the most tax-efficient jurisdictions in the EU for both investors and business owners.

The application is simple, with a one-time submission and one-time government fee, provided the individual meets the criteria of being a tax resident in Cyprus and not previously domiciled in the Republic.

To apply, a specific set of documents is required, including proof of residency, passport copy, and other personal or financial documents. At TaxInCy, we guide you through the entire process—from document collection and form preparation to official submission—ensuring a smooth and successful application.
