Cyprus Investment Programme for Citizenship

As an important hub in the heart of the Mediterranean at the crossroads of Europe, Africa and Asia, Cyprus is diverse, culturally rich and perfectly placed for working and traveling within and beyond the European Union. The economy is rapidly recovering from a recent recession through significant activity in the shipping, tourism, legal and financial services sectors, and has also seen a surge in foreign investments and developments, and property and investment values.

The Cypriot government has established a number of incentives to attract foreign direct investment into the country. One of these is the Cyprus Investment Programme, which grants full Cypriot citizenship to wealthy individuals who invest EUR 2.2 million into the country and meet certain other requirements. Successful applicants gain the right to live, work, and study in all EU member countries.

The Parliament of Cyprus revised the existing program and implemented new rules that enable foreign nationals to gain citizenship if they meet certain criteria. The changes include the addition of two government contributions of EUR 100,000 each and an approval time frame of six to eight months.

Any non-Cypriot citizen may apply for the Cyprus Investment Programme if they meet the investment criteria.
