Therefore, please inform us as soon as possible, if your expectations, whether you will have a taxable profit for the year 2010 and if so, to submit the computation of temporary tax assessment together with the 1/3 of the provisional tax on 1st August.

Failure to make a tax provision of at least 75% of the final year’s taxable profits will result in payment of an additional tax of 10% on the difference between final tax and provisional tax. Failure to pay the provisional tax on time will result in an 8% interest payable on overdue tax.

The installment payable on 1st August can be paid until 31st August 2010 without any interest charged. It is possible to revise an assessment upwards before the end of the year.

Thanking you for your kind co-operation at all times.

Cyprus is famous for its tax incentives and has double-tax agreements with twenty seven countries and major Western ‘high-tax’ countries. This is a very uncommon feature which has made it a perfect place to invest or start a new company. Also, the location of Cyprus in between in the best trading nations in addition to the international ports and international air ports available for the export and import of goods or material from other countries to Cyprus and the manufactured product from Cyprus to other international market is very easy. These are the reasons why many IBC’s are planning to start a unit or a branch unit in the island of Cyprus.

Companies should follow the rules and regulations framed for the registering it in government of Cyprus. Some of the important steps that should be followed during registration are:

Companies should specify two or three names to the Registrar of the Cyprus Company Formation for the approval. Some of the private firms have already registered names. If there is any company registered with the same proposed name, you should change any letter for the security reason and to prevent the duplicates.

The Companies should specify the Share Capital to the Cyprus Company Formation. The objectives should deliver during the registration in order to prepare the Memorandum and related Articles. It helps for the documentation works and registered in both English and Greek Languages. The Companies should apply to the Central Bank for the approval of the Fund Exchange Control.

Companies should have shareholders and should submit during the time of registration. There is no range for the number of shareholders and it depends on the economic condition, activities performed and the duties carried out by the Offshore Company.

Registered Office Address is a basic requirement during the registration on the Company. It can be handled by the Private Companies who has the registered address. It is mandatory since, the documents are forwarded to the stated address.

Every Company should have Directors and Sectary in order to manage the International Business Companies. The Secretary should belong to local private firms, so that the companies can have better legal advices and guidance.

Registration Procedure carried over in Cyprus:

The proposal is sent to Company registrar by the agencies.

Once the company name is approved by it, the articles and the memorandum are prepared for it. You have to wait for about 2 or 4 day for getting the approval for your company’s name.

If the duration has to be reduced then the approved company’s name should be selected and it is sent to Company registrar for registration.

Yearly Requirements:

For every year the final audited statements should be submitted to the Income Tax office. The audition should be supervised by an auditor under the Cyprus Law. The Annual audited statements should be submitted to Company registrar which is translated to Greek and submitted. It should include details about Directors, shareholders and registered office address in Cyprus.

Advantages fiscally:

Considering the tax legislation currently, the lowest regime in Europe is Cyprus. Hence why it has enhanced many companies and it is an International Financial Centre. There is no differentiation between the small companies and the International Business Companies as Single Corporation in tax payment. Cyprus is termed as Tax-Incentive Europe country. And it also free from suspicions which is usually associated to the Tax-Havens.

Cyprus Tax Reform:

If an International Business Corporation is resident of Cyprus then it should pay 10% of its net profit. It is considered as resident of Cyprus if the management and the control of company are in Cyprus. The resident is considered by board meetings where it is taking place and residence of majority directors of the company.

If IBC is non-resident in Cyprus, that is, the management and the control outside of Cyprus then the tax payment is zero. Double Tax Treaty network is available for the resident IBC and not for Non-resident. Cyprus Tax Residence certificate is not provided for the non-resident IBC’s. In payment of dividends, royalties and interests by an IBC cannot withhold the tax payment. Under certain conditions the dividend income is completely exempt from the Cyprus tax. Permanent established abroad, their profit is fully exempt from the Corporation tax. The profits obtained from the dispose of shares are not taxable. In the carry-forward of tax losses there is no restriction. There 32 Double Tax Treaty agreements which is established in 40 countries. Confidentiality and the Anonymity of the Owners are safeguarded.

The first requirement that a company must fulfill is have a unique business name specific for every company. The company is supposed to send this name for approval to the registrar of company names who then must approve the name before application of a certificate of incorporation starts. In addition to the business name, a company must have articles and a memorandum of association. These too are filed with the registrar of companies to help the Cypriot government in solving commercial cases that are related to the company operations. However, Cyprus authorities do not interfere in the running of companies.

A physical address is required before a company is incorporated. This is mainly because the physical address acts as a sign that a company has perpetuity and that there exists a physical premises where the company management may be located. A company must have a recommendation from a credible bank that it is capable of transacting in the capacity that it states in the articles of association. The country must also have a company secretary. The secretary must always be available at the company premises to take care of business when the proprietors are not around. For the people who prefer anonymity when they are registering companies, you can hire agents who then register the company at their behest. Company secretaries should also be hired, but this may be done on a quasi basis where they need not appear at the company premises. However, the name of the secretary has to be forwarded for bureaucratic purposes.

Other requirements before incorporation include the trade licenses from area councils that allow the company to operate in a certain area. A company is also required to register at the income tax department. The corporate tax in Cyprus is a fixed at 10% and all companies are supposed to comply. The time taken to incorporate a company ranges from five to seven days. No fees are charged foreign investors by the government when incorporating a company, which makes Cyprus a favorite destination for the investors who may be interested in doing business in the Middle East. Incorporation comes with a certificate that is evidence that a company has fully met the requirements stipulated by the law and that the management of the company has agreed to conduct business as the Cypriot law requires.

You must first register the company name and get approval from the Registrar of companies. This takes between two and three days to complete. Perhaps one of the most costly steps in this process is where you must prepare the Memorandum and Articles of Association with an attorney, which may take a mere 2 days but it will cost you 1000 CPY. From then you must deliver the documents already processed to the Companies Section of the Registrar of Companies and Official Receiver and the process to approve them will take about 2 to 3 days. You also have to pay for registration and for the certificate you will receive. On top of that, you must pay a little over 1/2% on the set capital for the business. You must then register with the Ministry of Commerce Tax, the Ministry for Commerce VAT, and the Ministry for Commerce for Social Distribution. Each of these processes is free and only takes a day to complete. That is how an IBC company is registered in Cyprus.

As an offshore investor, you have the option to have your company registered Cyprian where you pay tax of 10% and you also get to reap the benefits of being a Cyprus company. You also have the chance to register it as an international business company with a Cyprus office. In both options, you have the choice to have local and international employees. The international employees, if residing in Cyprus as supervisors of the local office, will have a chance to apply for permanent residence. They will be able to reap the benefits of a being a member of the EU. If you incorporate it as an international business company or an IBC, you are exempt from paying tax and you can use foreign currency freely. You also get the chance to have your expenses while in Cyprus marked as tax deduction. The consulting firm will take anywhere between 7 days and 2 weeks to incorporate your company for you.

There are consulting firms that already have registered companies ready for your use. For an agreed upon fee, they will incorporate the pre-existing company into your international company and you can enjoy the advantages that come with it. This includes the added advantage that local authorities are not monitoring your finances. Either way, you are advised to have at least one director and shareholder and a secretary for your company. You also get the benefit of a consulting firm that will take care of your business for you for a small fee and you get to walk away with the majority profit from your company and in the process, your employees, if interested, have a shot at being Cyprus citizens and by extension becoming EU citizens as well.

These taxes could be for its operations in the country or for its employees who may also be taxed separately by the government. Taxes enable the government of the day to run its various operations with ease and as such, each and every individual of a certain country that is considered an adult is required to pay taxes of a certain amount depending on the individual’s earnings and so on. The same applies to companies and organizations operating within the country’s jurisdiction. The level of taxation (the amount payable) that is imposed on an organization differs from country to country and from industry to industry with certain industries being taxed either additionally or higher than others are. To attract investors to the country resorts to tax incentives or rebates and Cyprus has some attractive ones.

The republic of Cyprus has over the years emerged as a leader in off shore company incorporation not only in Europe but also around the globe. Several mechanisms have been put together by the government to attract foreign investors from near and far. Offshore bank accounts and the corporate structures that are already in place help in the reduction of income and corporate tax. This is an extremely attractive incentive to individuals and organizations that are ready, willing, and able to do business in Cyprus. Other taxes that have reduction incentives are the capital gains tax and inheritance tax.

In this country, trading in securities is essentially tax exempt because any part of the profit gained while trading in these securities is considered as part of the profit. This profit is then considered part of the company’s trading activities and is therefore taken to be of a capital nature. Cyprus does not have any specific pricing requirements for products and or services and there are no specific substance requirements. Invoices from off shore companies are also accepted in Cyprus. Another fact is that company books and payments to offshore companies bear no withholding tax. All these things put together; from location to business environment to tax incentives make Cyprus one of the ideal destinations for offshore investments and a prime location to set up shop.

The advantage of registering a company in Cyprus is that they do not need your tax information and hence no need to deal with an auditor. However, you will be charged tax on any income generated in the event of a Cyprus-oriented transaction or deal. You will not be under obligation to follow the Cyprus tax laws, therefore you do not pay tax, but at the same time, you do not stand to benefit from double taxation like a Cyprian. If you wish to, you must ensure that the board of directors is pre-dominantly from Cyprus. Therefore, you will not pay tax based on where the company is registered but where it is actually controlled and run from. A positive thing is that if the company is registered as a Cyprus company then you are charged 10% tax but if its non-Cyprus then the tax is at a clean 0%.

To begin with, you must have a name that is available for registration. Also there are permitted lines of business that you can register your company under like loaners, asset finance, security, stocks, and other related terms in the field of finance. The name must be in Greek or an acceptable Latin language. You must have a minimum of one director and a minimum of one shareholder. You must also have a secretary in your employment manning your Cyprus office. You must submit your tax records yearly to the Tax Department and you must also have a tax number. Also like Belize, there are consultants and agents who can sort out the registration for you for a fee. A company will take between 7 and 10 days to register and approve.

You can register it online with the consultants and let them sort the rest out for you. All you will need to register is a copy of your ID or passport, an agreement that can be sent by you, should they request for one, and a utility bill, be it telephone or electricity, not dating back more than 3 months and it has to be in the English language. You must of course give your contact details in full and state if you have any affiliation with Cyprus businesses. You must also ensure that you have at least one director and shareholder from Cyprus. The shareholders and nominees must also hand in their financial statements. So as has been established, Cyprus is yet another country that you can invest in if you wish to gain from the Cyprus tax laws or open an offshore company in Cyprus and enjoy 0% tax charges and keep more of your profit.

Starting a company in Cyprus is a very straightforward process and if all the papers are in order it might take you less than a week to have you business up and running. After the registrar has approved the company name and it does not tally with any other name in the country or even resemble any, it is time to receive your certificate and move on to ensuring your papers abide by the current laws of the country. Now it is only fair to say that it does not look or sound that bad. As the country is located in the middle of two continents it is o.k. to assume that trading with the two will be made very easy due to reduced cost of trade. If not external trade, the country offers a great population to trade with and gain the best out of the experience.

The taxation laws are very relaxed in Cyprus and many businessmen and women like it because they pay less tax as compared to other countries elsewhere. This leaves the business with enough resources to expand and spread its wings to the rest of the country. When incorporating a company in Cyprus the main law used is the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap.113, which comes from the English 1948 Companies Act. The procedure for incorporation has been simplified over time to offer easy access to the market as described above. It is thus safe to assume that the government of the country is trying to get as many people as possible involved in doing business in the country. The laws have been realigned and redesigned to accommodate foreign businesses and  individuals from all over the world and offer them the opportunity of a lifetime. On this note, it is advisable for all the enterprising minds to come, visit Cyprus, and discover for themselves the truth and merit of this information and begin a whole new business experience never had before.

The Commonwealth (formerly known as the British Commonwealth) is an organization made up of 54 member states that were once a part of the British Empire ruled by the monarch of the time during what is famously referred to as the colonial era. As a member it shares the same values with the other 53 member states in as far as issues of good governance, human rights, free trade and world peace is concerned. In addition, it is one of only two member states of the Commonwealth whose official language is not English. This however does not pose any hindrance or act as a disadvantage to any company or companies (English speaking or not) that may wish to do business in Cyprus.

It is an island known worldwide for its sandy beaches, beautiful scenery and near perfect weather all year round. For decades, it has and continues to serve as one of the world’s popular holiday destinations. It joined the European Union, a political and economic union with 27 primarily European member states, on May 1, 2004 and this opened up new avenues of business for this island nation.

In Cyprus, several tax incentives are available for any offshore company that is willing to open and run its business on this island nation. Within the European Union, Cyprus has the lowest taxation charges in a country that is not considered to be off shore. The standard corporate tax in this nation is 10 percent. For shipping of goods, Cyprus has a very attractive percentage tax of zero percent (0%), which is truly unbeatable. The maritime management companies that are responsible for this shipping are taxed at 4.25 percent.

This is also on record as being the lowest taxation rate for maritime management companies as well as corporate companies in the European Union. These taxes and many others can be reduced by using the various management options available to off shore companies in Cyprus. Different types of contracts can also be put together by the company or companies in question to reduce the amount of corporate tax deductible even further. This beautiful island nation that has Turkish listed as one of its official languages is also considered a premier destination for finance companies, holding companies, and royalty trading companies. It is a not only a friendly nation but an investor friendly nation and one of the best places on earth to run a successful, profitable company from.
