Why Cyprus for a family office?

Cyprus offers a unique combination of factors that make it attractive for family offices: EU membership, English common law legal system, a sophisticated financial services sector, 0% inheritance tax, non-dom dividend exemption and extensive double tax treaty access. Unlike some competing jurisdictions, Cyprus offers genuine EU regulatory legitimacy rather than offshore status.

The Cypriot trust framework — based on English trust law — provides a flexible, well-understood structure for multi-generational wealth management. Cyprus trusts can hold assets of any type, appoint professional trustees, and operate for up to 100 years. Combined with a Cyprus holding company and non-dom individual status, a Cyprus family structure can be highly tax-efficient and robustly protected.
