Wirtschafts- und Branchenüberblick
Cyprus is a small, open, services-dominated island economy and EU member state that adopted the euro in 2008. Tourism, financial services, shipping, real estate, and a rapidly expanding ICT sector are the primary drivers of economic activity. Real GDP grew 3.8% in 2025, supported by robust private consumption and strong services exports, particularly from booming ICT activities. The Cyprus Stock Exchange (CSE), founded in 1996, is a relatively small exchange with approximately 70 listed companies, dominated by the banking and financial sector. The country maintains a fiscal surplus and a declining public debt-to-GDP ratio, with unemployment near multi-decade lows.

Several Cypriot and international brokers, including online platforms that support European equities (IBKR, Saxo Bank, etc.), offer access to CSE-listed stocks. The CSE and Athens Stock Exchange (ATHEX) share a common trading platform (HERMES), which facilitates cross-border order routing for dual-listed companies. Settlement follows the standard T+2 European convention. There are no US-listed ADRs for purely CSE-listed companies; Bank of Cyprus re-listed on ATHEX in September 2024.

Umzug & Aufenthalt
Investment-Visa / Residenzprogramm
Förderprogramme Permanent residency (non-EU nationals; citizenship possible after 8 years' lawful residence)
Cyprus operates a Permanent Residence by Investment programme (Regulation 6(2) of the Aliens and Immigration Regulations), commonly called the 'Golden Visa'. Non-EU nationals who invest a minimum of €300,000 (~USD 324,000 at prevailing rates) in qualifying assets: new residential or commercial property, share capital of a Cyprus-registered company employing at least five persons, or units in regulated Cyprus investment funds, may obtain a permanent residence permit. The framework was revised by the Council of Ministers on 2 May 2023. The main applicant must demonstrate a secured annual income of at least €50,000 sourced from abroad. Holders must visit Cyprus at least once every two years to maintain status. A prior citizenship-by-investment (CIP/'golden passport') programme was terminated in November 2020 following the 'Cyprus Papers' controversy; citizenship remains available via naturalisation after 8 years of lawful residence.

Cyprus is an EU member state. EU/EEA citizens enjoy freedom of movement and the right to reside and work without restriction. Non-EU nationals may apply under the Permanent Residence by Investment programme (Regulation 6(2)) or standard immigration routes. Cyprus operates a non-domicile tax regime offering exemptions on dividends and passive interest income for qualifying new residents, attracting significant inflows of high-net-worth individuals and multinational headquarters. English is widely spoken and used in business, legal, and government contexts.
