QROPS Advice: Taxation of ‘Non-Residents’ Living in Cyprus

If an individual is deemed to be a non-resident of Cyprus for tax purposes they will only be taxed on certain types of their Cypriot sourced income. Such income would be employment income (including benefits) in relation to services rendered in Cyprus, profits from a business activity which is carried out through a permanent establishment in Cyprus, rentals from immoveable property situated in Cyprus, and pensions in respect of employment exercised in Cyprus. These incomes are subject to Cypriot income tax at the progressive rates applicable. Unearned income such as interest and dividends earned from Cyprus sources are exempt from any income tax.
