Incorporation of Cyprus companies – Corporate Services

Cyprus is considered to be one of the most attractive jurisdictions in Europe to form a limited liability company due to its advantageous tax system. As a full member of the EU as of 1st of May 2004, Cyprus can offer one of the lowest corporate tax regimes in Europe of just 12.5%. Pagecorp Group assists diligently and broadly on the setting up of a company in Cyprus.

Provision of ready-made Cyprus shelf companies

At any time, a number of already registered Cyprus companies are available at Pagecorp Group. The list of already registered companies is available upon request. Such types of companies have not conducted any business and have no liabilities. As these companies have not traded, they can be sold in their entirety as an alternative to incorporating a company, which procedurally, takes a longer period of time. Shelf companies can be delivered to a client within 24 hours.

Cyprus Holding Companies – Corporate Services

Cyprus is one of the most attractive countries within the European Union in which to set up a holding company. In essence, holding companies are set-up as an effective means of consolidating ownership of operating subsidiaries. A great number of international businesses have established Cyprus holding companies mainly due to the low corporate tax and the completely tax-free income from dividends and the reduced (or eliminated) withholding taxes, as a result of Cyprus’s extensive network of Treaties for the Avoidance of Double Taxation. Pagecorp Group has abundant expertise in establishing Cyprus holding companies.

Registration of Branches in Cyprus

Under the Companies Law, Chapter 113, foreign companies may register a branch in Cyprus.

 Corporate Services – Re-domiciliation of companies

The legislation usually permits the transfer of a company’s “seat of incorporation” into or out of the jurisdiction.

Pagecorp Group assists collectively on all re-domiciliation matters with the utmost care.
