Cyprus tax system environment, its competitive corporate tax of 12,5% and the extensive network of double tax treaties have contributed to rank the island as a serious EU tax jurisdiction for both outbound and inbound investments, where non EU companies are seeking to expand their operations into the EU and more often when EU companies are seeking to expand their operations outside the EU.

The most popular international tax structures which are used in Cyprus are holding structures, group financing structures, royalty holding entities, trading entities and securities trading entities.
