Cyprus (EU) Citizenship by investment Program
Obtain an EU Passport approval within 3 months
Securing a second Citizenship in the Republic of Cyprus for you and your family is now far easier and more efficient since recent changes were introduced by the Government of Cyprus in September 2016. By making it possible to include the parents of the applicant and the parents of the applicant’s spouse and by also reducing the investment requirement, the process of naturalisation through investment has now been greatly simplified for Cyprus. The Cyprus programme for EU Citizenship is recognisably one of the most attractive options for a second passport and the only one with no residency requirement.
Investment options
Property investment
An investment amount of not less than 2 million Euros either in property purchase or building construction-which can either be a single property purchase or portfolio. The investment may also include land development projects.
Purchase or Participation in Cypriot companies
The applicant may invest an amount of not less than 2 million Euros in either purchasing, starting or participating in a Cypriot business. The Criteria being the business must have a physical presence in Cyprus and must employ at least five Cypriots.
