    Best Cyprus Golden Visa Lawyers & Advisers (2026)

    A Cyprus Golden Visa lawyer should confirm which investment route you qualify for, check the asset and source-of-funds evidence, and name who owns each filing stage. Compare 20 law firms and advisers by credentials, regulator, fees and programme expertise.

    Bar-number check: 2 of 20 listed firms have a lawyer with a verified bar number. How we verify

    Quick answer: this directory lists 20 Cyprus Golden Visa providers, unranked, with paid profiles listed first. One independent firm has passed GVL's full firm credentials check, a separate review from the bar-number count: Harvey Law Group. Use the filters to narrow by provider type, language and fees.

    A Cyprus Golden Visa lawyer handles fast-track permanent residence under Regulation 6(2): a €300,000 investment in one of four categories, secured annual income of at least €50,000, and a file the Migration Department estimates it examines in about two months once complete. It is residence only; Cyprus ended citizenship by investment on 1 November 2020.

    The rules below come from the Migration Department's investor permit criteria (4th revision, in force since 2 May 2023), checked 26 Sep 2026. Ask each firm which category it files most often and who checks the payment trail before you sign a sale contract.

    What Does Regulation 6(2) Require?

    Investment: at least €300,000 in one of these categories: (A) a new house or apartment bought first-sale from a development company, plus VAT; (B) other real estate such as offices, shops or hotels, which may be a resale; (C) share capital of a Cyprus company with a physical presence in Cyprus that employs at least five people; or (D) units of a Cyprus collective investment organisation.

    Payment: for property, you file a title deed or a sale contract lodged with the Department of Lands and Surveys, and official payment receipts of at least €300,000 (excluding VAT), whatever the delivery date. The money must be shown to have reached Cyprus from abroad, from your or your spouse's account or from a company that you or your spouse solely own.

    Income: at least €50,000 a year, plus €15,000 for a spouse and €10,000 for each dependent minor child. On the new-home route it must come from abroad; on the other three routes some or all of it may come from Cyprus. A tax return or a certificate from an independent certified accountant can prove it.

    Who Can Be Included in a Cyprus Application?

    Your spouse and children under 18 are included. Unmarried children aged 18 to 25 who study abroad and depend on you can file their own application if you show an extra €10,000 a year of income for each of them.

    Other adult children can rely on your investment only if it is multiplied: €600,000 for one adult child, €900,000 for two. Each must show secured income of €50,000 of their own. If a minor child is included and only one parent is taking part, the other parent's consent must be signed before a Cypriot consular officer.

    How Much Does It Cost and How Long Does It Take?

    Government fees: €500 on submission, plus €70 per person for the alien registration certificate where you do not already have one. The Migration Department estimates about two months to examine a complete application, which the Deputy Minister of Migration and International Protection decides.

    The residence right has no end date for the holder and adult dependants. The card itself is valid for ten years and must then be replaced. Minor children's permits run until they turn 18.

    What Keeps a Cyprus Permanent Residence Permit Valid?

    Each year you must show that you still hold the investment and, if you are not covered by GESY, that you have health insurance. Clean criminal-record certificates for you and adult family members are due every three years. The annual proof of income was abolished.

    The permit lapses if you live abroad and do not take up residence in Cyprus within one year of approval, if you acquire permanent residence in another country, or if you are absent from Cyprus for two years.

    What Should a Cyprus Golden Visa Lawyer Check?

    Before you pay: which category fits your money, the VAT position, whether the receipts will reach €300,000 before you file, and whether the funds trail from abroad matches the criteria. On a company route, they should confirm the five-employee and physical-presence tests.

    After approval: who takes up residence within the year, who keeps the investment evidence each year, and whether any adult child needs their own application. Firms that handle these files are listed on this page; the wider Cyprus picture is on the Cyprus immigration lawyer page.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does the Cyprus Golden Visa lead to citizenship?

    Not directly. Cyprus ended citizenship by investment on 1 November 2020. Naturalisation now needs 12 months of continuous legal residence before applying plus at least 7 years in the 10 years before that, B1 Greek and a knowledge test (European Commission, checked 26 Sep 2026).

    How much must be paid when I apply for Cyprus permanent residence?

    On the real-estate routes you need official payment receipts of at least €300,000, excluding VAT, when you apply, whatever the property's delivery date. The money must have come to Cyprus from abroad.

    Can my adult children be included?

    Unmarried children aged 18 to 25 who study abroad and depend on you can apply separately if you show €10,000 of extra income each. Other adult children need the investment multiplied (€600,000 for one, €900,000 for two) and €50,000 of their own secured income.

    How long does a Cyprus permanent residence application take?

    The Migration Department estimates about two months from submission of a complete application. Fees are €500 on submission plus €70 per person for the alien registration certificate.

    Do I have to live in Cyprus to keep the permit?

    There is no set number of days, but the permit lapses if you do not take up residence within one year of approval, or if you are absent from Cyprus for two years. You must also show each year that you still hold the investment.
