The Cyprus Golden Visa programme grants EU permanent residency to non-EU nationals who invest in real estate. With WMN guiding the process, securing your family's future in Europe has never been more straightforward.
Cyprus is a full European Union member state. By investing in qualifying property, non-EU nationals and their families can obtain Cyprus Permanent Residency — granting the right to live, work, study, and travel freely across the European Union.
Cyprus offers one of the EU's most straightforward, fastest, and most affordable residency pathways. WMN Global Investments manages the entire process — from selecting the right property to the moment you receive your residency permit.
Cyprus has been a European Union member since 2004. Cyprus residency is genuine, unrestricted EU residency — not a second-tier associate status.
The Cyprus Fast Track Permanent Residency programme approves in approximately 60 days — compared to 12–18 months for many comparable EU programmes.
The qualifying property is a real asset you own outright — it can generate rental income (long-term or Airbnb) while simultaneously securing your residency.
From property selection and legal due diligence to government application and family registration — WMN manages every step on your behalf.
WMN handles every step. Your role: choose the property and sign where required. Our team manages the rest — legal, government, documentation, and family registration.
WMN presents qualifying properties that meet the €300K+ investment threshold and Golden Visa requirements.
Our legal partners prepare and review all documentation, purchase contracts, and government submissions.
We submit your family's residency application to the Civil Registry and Migration Department of Cyprus.
Receive your EU permanent residency permit. Live, work, and travel freely within the European Union.
Beyond the permit — Cyprus offers a quality of life, financial environment, and geographic position that few EU countries can match.
Live, work, and study anywhere in the European Union. Cyprus PR grants genuine EU-level legal status — with the right to reside in Cyprus indefinitely.
Travel visa-free or with simplified entry across all 27 EU member states. Cyprus is also a Schengen associate — adding further European access.
Your spouse, dependent children (up to age 25 if in full-time education), and parents of both applicant and spouse can all be included on a single application.
After 7 years of legal residency you become eligible to apply for Cypriot citizenship — an EU passport with visa-free access to 170+ countries.
12.5% corporate tax — the EU's lowest. Zero tax on dividends and capital gains for non-domiciled residents. 60-day tax residency rule available.
340+ days of sunshine per year, pristine beaches, safe streets, world-class healthcare, and an English-speaking environment.
Access to free public education and the EU's healthcare framework (GESY in Cyprus). Multiple international and private schools across all major cities.
The qualifying property is a genuine real estate asset. Rent it long-term or through Airbnb — generating 5–14% annual yields while your residency remains active.
The Cyprus Fast Track PR is one of the only EU residency programmes that allows the inclusion of both sets of parents (applicant's and spouse's) in a single application. This makes it uniquely powerful for families who want to relocate together.
Every family member included receives an identical Permanent Residency permit — with the full right to reside in Cyprus indefinitely.
The property investor — any non-EU national aged 18+.
Included automatically on the same application.
Up to age 25 if enrolled in full-time education.
Both sets of parents can be included — separate permit, same application process.
The standard document set for the Fast Track PR application. WMN provides a personalised checklist and guides you through every apostille, translation, and notarisation requirement.
Requirements can change with Cyprus migration policy. WMN confirms the current checklist for your specific case before any documents are prepared.
Everything you need to know about Cyprus residency by investment — answered honestly and clearly by WMN's advisory team.
No. The Cyprus Fast Track Permanent Residency (Category 6.2) requires only that you visit Cyprus at least once every two years. There is no minimum annual stay requirement. Your residency remains valid as long as you make at least one visit to Cyprus every 24 months.
Yes. You retain full ownership of the property and can rent it out — both on long-term leases and through short-term platforms such as Airbnb. Rental income does not affect your residency status. WMN offers full property management services to maximise rental income while you are overseas.
Yes — and this is one of Cyprus's unique advantages. Both the applicant's parents and the spouse's parents can be included in the application. They each receive their own Permanent Residency permit at no additional property investment. Separate application fees apply per person.
The €300,000 threshold refers to the property's purchase price excluding VAT. New-build properties in Cyprus are subject to 19% VAT (or 5% reduced VAT for primary residence purchases under specific conditions).
WMN will always clarify the exact VAT position of each qualifying property before you commit — and in many cases, reduced VAT rates apply, significantly lowering your total investment. Some resale (secondary market) properties are VAT-exempt but require careful verification of their qualification status.
The standard document checklist for the Fast Track PR application includes:
WMN provides a personalised document checklist and guides you through every apostille, translation, and notarisation requirement.
The Category 6.2 Permanent Residency does not automatically grant the right to work as an employee for a Cyprus employer. However, you may operate a Cyprus company as a director, earn dividends, manage your investments, and work remotely for non-Cypriot clients without restriction. A separate work permit can be obtained if you wish to take local employment.
After 7 years of legal residency in Cyprus (calculated from the date your permanent residency permit was issued), you become eligible to apply for Cypriot citizenship by naturalisation. Cyprus citizenship grants a full EU passport with visa-free access to 170+ countries, including the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia. Language proficiency in Greek and a clean record are among the requirements.
For most of the process — including property selection, legal due diligence, and application submission — you do not need to be in Cyprus. WMN coordinates everything remotely. One short visit is required for biometric data collection (fingerprints) at the Migration Department. This appointment typically takes 1–2 hours, and WMN accompanies you throughout.
A WMN residency advisor will review your enquiry, confirm your eligibility, and schedule a private consultation at your convenience. The consultation is entirely free and comes with no obligation.
