Tax Clearance

Tax clearance certificates, obtained without the friction

Capital Gains, IPT, municipal and sewerage clearances assembled and filed on your behalf — ready for Land Registry transfer.

Cypriot property transfers require a stack of tax clearances from the Tax Department, the municipality and the sewerage board. Missing one delays completion.

We assemble, file and follow up every certificate on your behalf, in coordination with your lawyer and the seller's representatives.

"Two decades on the ground in Cyprus, with vast experience in real estate and banking, has taught us that the brief is never just the property — it is the life around it. We take both seriously."
