Tax Advisors in Nicosia, Cyprus

5 questions to ask before you hire a tax advisor in Nicosia

1. Will you model my specific salary-versus-dividend split under the 2026 reform, not a generic template?
2. Have you handled non-dom applications and IP Box claims like mine?
3. How do you handle cross-border and reverse-charge VAT for my service mix?
4. Are you advising on structure, or only filing compliance?
5. What is your fee for the planning work versus the ongoing returns?

Big firm vs small firm vs independent

For a standard company, the same ICPAC firm that does your audit can usually handle tax compliance. A dedicated tax specialist earns their fee on complex or high-value structures: IP Box claims, multi-jurisdiction residency, large dividend planning. Pay for specialist advice where the tax at stake is large, not for routine filing.

Red flags to avoid

• A generic "Cyprus is 0% tax" pitch with no reference to your actual residency and domicile position.
• No mention of the 2026 reform changes (SDC down to 5%, corporation tax at 15%).
• Aggressive structures with no substance that will not survive scrutiny.
• No clear split between one-off planning fees and recurring compliance fees.
