Why buy a shelf company in Cyprus?
An EU member with a common-law based system and a wide double tax treaty network.
Our Cyprus ready made companies were incorporated in advance and kept dormant. They have never traded, carry no debts or contracts, and have been kept in good standing, so ownership can pass to you as soon as due diligence is complete.
At transfer you can change the company name, appoint your own directors, move the registered office and adopt the business activity you need.
Well suited to

Cyprus shelf companies: common questions
How quickly can I own a Cyprus shelf company?
Once due diligence is complete, the transfer itself usually takes days. The exact timing depends on registry, notary or agent steps in Cyprus. A Cyprus company needs a local company secretary and registered office.
Are your Cyprus companies really clean?
Yes. Each company has been dormant since incorporation. You receive written confirmation that it has never traded and has no debts or liabilities, and you can check it on the official register.
Can a non-resident buy a company in Cyprus?
In most cases yes. Where Cyprus requires a local director, secretary, agent or address, we can arrange it and include it in your quotation.
Can I rename the company?
Yes. A change of name is normally filed together with the transfer, along with new directors, shareholders and registered office.
Will the Cyprus company have a bank account?
Not as standard. Banks open accounts for the new owners after their own checks. We advise on realistic banking options for your activity and can support the application.
How much does a Cyprus ready made company cost?
Price on request. It depends on the age of the company and the services you add. You receive a fixed written quotation before any payment.
What about tax?
Tax depends on where the company is managed and what it does, not only on registration in Cyprus. We give general guidance only. Please take advice from a qualified tax adviser.
