I agree to the Privacy Policy and consent to DNLAWPARTNERS processing my personal data to respond to my enquiry, in accordance with GDPR (Regulation 2016/679).

What is the Yellow Slip?

The official EU residency
certificate for Cyprus

The Yellow Slip (MEU1) is the Registration Certificate issued to EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens who live in Cyprus for more than 3 months. It is required by law, grants full residency rights, and does not expire.

🏛️

Legal Basis

Governed by EU Directive 2004/38/EC as transposed into Cyprus law through Law 7(I)/2007. Every EU citizen staying more than 90 days must register.

✅

What It Gives You

Full right to live, work, and access public services in Cyprus including GESY (national health). The Yellow Slip for EU citizens does not expire.

⚠️

2026 Changes

Since late 2024, rental agreements must be certified by a Muhtar and stamped by the Tax Department. UK nationals with old paper MEU1 must convert to biometric cards by August 2026.

The Process

How we get your
Yellow Slip done

Free Consultation

We review your situation — nationality, employment status, family members — and tell you exactly what you need.

Document Preparation

We prepare your MEU1 form and guide you on every document — passport, proof of address, proof of funds, employer letters, or health insurance depending on your category.

Appointment & Submission

We book your appointment at the Civil Registry and Migration Department and attend with you if needed. For EU citizens, the Yellow Slip is typically issued same-day or within one month.

Follow-Up

Once you have your Yellow Slip, we can assist with GESY registration, tax residency, and any next steps for your life in Cyprus.

Cyprus Tax Residency

Two routes to becoming a
Cyprus tax resident

Under the Income Tax Law 118(I)/2002 (as amended), you can become a Cyprus tax resident under the 183-day rule or the 60-day rule — and benefit from the Non-Dom regime.

📅

183-Day Rule

Spend more than 183 days in Cyprus in a calendar year. No additional conditions required. Straightforward and widely used for full-time residents.

✈️

60-Day Rule

Spend at least 60 days in Cyprus, maintain a permanent home (owned or rented), conduct business or hold employment in Cyprus, and be a tax resident of no other country. Introduced in 2017, amended January 2026.

💰

Non-Dom Benefits

0% tax on dividends and passive interest income for up to 17 years. Applicable to both the 60-day and 183-day routes. One of the most competitive tax regimes in the EU.

The Process

How we register your
Cyprus tax residency

Eligibility Check

We review your situation — days in Cyprus, income sources, existing tax residency — and confirm which route applies to you.

Yellow Slip First

Tax residency requires prior registration with the Civil Registry. We obtain your Yellow Slip (MEU1) as the first step if you don't have one.

Tax Registration

We submit Form T.F.126 (2022) and supporting documents to the Cyprus Tax Department. Under 2022 guidelines, certificates can be prepared in advance before the 60 days are completed.

Non-Dom Certificate

We obtain your official Non-Domicile certificate confirming 0% tax on dividends and passive interest — valid for up to 17 years.

Cyprus Non-Dom Regime

0% tax on dividends.
Up to 17 years.

The Cyprus Non-Domicile (Non-Dom) regime is one of the most attractive tax structures in Europe. If you are not domiciled in Cyprus and become a Cyprus tax resident, your worldwide dividend and passive interest income is completely exempt from tax.

💸

0% Dividend Tax

Worldwide dividends and passive interest exempt from income tax and Special Defence Contribution (SDC) for up to 17 years. Only 2.65% GeSY (health) contribution applies.

🌐

Who Qualifies

Anyone who was not a Cyprus tax resident for at least 17 of the last 20 years before the law's introduction (July 2015). In practice, most foreign nationals moving to Cyprus qualify immediately.

📋

2026 Update

Following the December 2025 tax reform (in force from January 2026), the SDC on dividends was reduced from 17% to 5% for domiciled residents. Non-Dom status remains fully exempt. Personal tax-free threshold raised to €22,000.

The Process

How we get your
Non-Dom status registered

Eligibility Assessment

We confirm you meet the Non-Dom criteria — not domiciled in Cyprus, qualifying tax residency route (60-day or 183-day), and appropriate income structure.

Residency Registration

Yellow Slip (EU citizens) or appropriate permit, followed by registration with the Cyprus Civil Registry as required by law.

Tax Residency Certificate

We submit Form T.F.126 and all supporting documents to the Cyprus Tax Department and obtain your official Cyprus tax residency certificate.

Non-Dom Certificate

We obtain your Non-Domicile certificate confirming the full exemption from tax on dividends and passive interest — valid for up to 17 years from your first year of Cyprus tax residency.
