LAIKI BANK

Cyprus Residency by Investment

A settled base in Europe, arranged with care.

We coordinate the banking behind permanent residency and introduce vetted legal and tax counsel — so relocating families can plan a move to Cyprus with clarity rather than complication.

Why families choose Cyprus

EU membership.
English-law tradition.
A non-domicile regime.

The case for Cyprus

A position between three continents.

Cyprus combines EU membership with a common-law legal system, an established professional-services sector and a tax framework designed to welcome international residents. For many families it is the most practical way to hold a European foothold.

Explore your eligibility

Non-domicile regime

Qualifying residents may be exempt from tax on dividends and most interest for up to seventeen years — a meaningful planning advantage.

European access

Permanent residence provides a stable, long-term base within the European Union for you and your family.

English-law heritage

A familiar legal tradition, widely used contracts and an English-speaking advisory community.

Quality of life

A Mediterranean climate, international schooling and established expatriate communities across the island.

How we work with you

Three stages, one continuous relationship.

  1. 01

    Eligibility review

    We assess your profile, residence objectives and source of funds against the current Cyprus permanent-residence criteria, and set out a realistic path.

  2. 02

    Structuring & application

    Alongside independent counsel, we structure the qualifying investment and prepare the application and supporting evidence for submission.

  3. 03

    Banking & relocation

    We open your accounts, hold and settle the investment funds through escrow, and support the practicalities of establishing a life on the island.
