Cyprus, a thriving EU business hub, is strategically located at the intersection of Europe, Asia, and Africa. With its pro-business environment, skilled workforce, and attractive tax framework, the island has become a preferred destination for companies looking to expand operations and access top talent.

For businesses aiming to hire employees in Cyprus without establishing a legal entity, the Employer of Record (EOR) model offers a seamless employment solution, ensuring full regulatory compliance and efficient workforce management.

Why Choose EOR in Cyprus?

  • Hassle-Free Hiring & Compliance – Onboard employees without dealing with complex labor laws and tax obligations.
  • No Need for a Legal Entity – Operate in Cyprus without setting up a local company.
  • Efficient Payroll & HR Administration – Payroll, social security, and employee benefits are fully managed.
  • Faster Market Entry – Expand into Cyprus without delays caused by bureaucratic processes.
  • Reduced Operational Risks – Ensure compliance with employment, immigration, and tax laws while focusing on business growth.

Exclusive Tax Benefits for Highly Skilled Employees

  • Cyprus offers one of the most attractive tax incentives for skilled professionals. Employees earning €55,000 or more annually can benefit from a 50% income tax exemption for up to 17 years. This incentive is particularly advantageous for:
    Directors & Executives
  • Key Management & Specialists
  • High-level professionals in various industries

This tax relief significantly enhances Cyprus’ appeal for international talent relocation.
