Corporate advisory
Relocate Your Business to Cyprus.
End to End.
Most companies approaching Cyprus relocation speak to a local lawyer, open a bank account,
and register an entity. Nobody coordinates the full picture.
Corporate relocation is not just a legal procedure.
It is a sequencing problem — substance, management control, team residency,
banking, tax positioning and real estate must be structured in the correct order,
before the first decision is made. Not after.
What most companies get wrong
- Registering a Cyprus entity without demonstrable substance — challenged by home jurisdiction tax authorities
- Relocating the director without addressing place of effective management
- Opening banking before the corporate structure is properly documented
- Moving employees without coordinating their personal tax residency
- Triggering exit tax in the home jurisdiction through poorly timed restructuring
- Assuming a holding company solves the tax question — without addressing operational reality
The corporate relocation profile
UK Companies
Post-Non-Dom founders relocating operations. FCA-regulated entities establishing a Cyprus parallel structure. Management buyouts and pre-exit restructuring.
DACH Operators
German, Austrian and Swiss GmbH / AG owners establishing a Cyprus HoldCo ahead of a liquidity event or to optimise ongoing tax exposure across jurisdictions.
Tech & SaaS Founders
Internationally mobile founders relocating IP, management and operations to Cyprus with a team of 2–10 people. Substance by design, not by accident.
