Immigration & Migration
To spur foreign direct investments domestically, the Cypriot Government, following the recent legislative amendments, has somehow relaxed the policies enabling third-country nationals to obtain residence rights and citizenship.
Our dynamic team of practitioners with extensive knowledge in the field routinely engages into a variety of immigration law issues encompassing, among other things:
Applications for Citizenship
Applications for Asylum
Temporary & Permanent Residence Permits (under the various categorical plans)
Permits for the Acquisition of Property by Non-EU Nationals
Employment Permits
Deportations
Visas
International Companies with Foreign Interests
In particular, we represent and advise third-country nationals who seek to obtain Cypriot citizenship through the economic route primarily directed to wealthy investors, which requires prospective candidates, by means of a specific financial plan, to invest a certain amount in the Republic of Cyprus; and, third country nationals who seek to obtain a permanent residence permit through the accelerated procedure under category 6 (2) by purchasing a newly built residential property in the Republic of Cyprus.
