Frequently asked questions
Can I still get a Cyprus passport by investment?
No. The Cyprus Investment Programme (citizenship by investment) was terminated in November 2020. Investment today leads to permanent residency, not citizenship; naturalisation follows long-term lawful residence.
What is fast-track permanent residency?
Under Regulation 6(2), non-EU nationals can obtain permanent residency by investing (commonly €300,000 plus VAT) in property or other qualifying assets and meeting income requirements. Conditions are periodically updated, so check the current criteria.
