Mediterranean Company Formation – Overview
Cyprus is one of the most attractive jurisdictions in the Mediterranean for international company formation, thanks to its low corporate tax rate (12.5%), EU membership, and business-friendly legal framework based on English common law. Whether you’re a startup, an investor, or a multinational expanding into the region, Cyprus offers a reliable and cost-effective gateway to European, Middle Eastern, and African markets.
Registering a company in Cyprus is a streamlined process with no minimum capital for a private limited company (Ltd), fast incorporation timelines, and access to a broad network of double tax treaties. It’s especially popular for holding companies, international trading, investment structures, and digital or fintech businesses.
Cyprus also offers non-domicile tax resident status, allowing qualified individuals to legally reduce their personal tax liability. Combined with no withholding taxes on dividends, capital gains, or interest income under certain conditions, Cyprus is a prime location for entrepreneurs and high-net-worth individuals seeking tax efficiency and EU compliance.
At BRIS Group, we provide full support for Cyprus company formation, including legal structure selection, name reservation, company registration, banking setup, substance solutions, and ongoing corporate administration. Whether you’re launching a new venture or restructuring an existing group, we’ll ensure your Cyprus entity is fully compliant and strategically positioned.
Cyprus is also a respected jurisdiction, regulated by EU law, with high standards for anti-money laundering and due diligence, making it a smart choice for businesses that prioritize transparency and global reach.
