Non-EU nationals who are interested in investing in Cyprus will now have the advantage of their applications being fast tracked under the Cypriot government’s new citizenship scheme. The initiative is specifically meant for non-EU entrepreneurs and businessmen who are considering investing in Cyprus in exchange for its citizenship.<\/p>\n
The program allows interested investors and their families to apply for Cypriot citizenship upon making a minimum investment. Based on a “fast track” process, the citizenship program processes applications within three months, provided all necessary documents have been submitted.<\/p>\n
To be eligible for citizenship in Cyprus, interested candidates need to purchase a residential property in the country worth at least \u20ac500,000 and make necessary investments in one of the tracks listed by the government:<\/p>\n
The Cypriot citizenship by investment program does not require investors to give up their existing nationalities, or to reside in Cyprus or be Cyprus tax residents. However, to qualify for the scheme, the candidates must have a clean criminal record and should not be listed on any sanction lists issued by the EU.<\/p>\n
Investors meeting the required criteria will be granted a Cypriot passport, which is particularly beneficial for non-EU nationals as it provides all privileges and rights of being a citizen of a country in the European Union.<\/p>\n
