Over 600 Express Interest in Repatriating to Cyprus for Work

More than 600 individuals working abroad have expressed interest in returning to work in Cyprus, under the framework of tax incentives and facilities offered by the new legislation. The Ministry of Finance reports that the measure is effective in attracting talent, as many Cypriots wish to return after gaining experience abroad. The Parliamentary Committee on Finance has requested to examine the profile of those interested. The legislation, part of the Talent Repatriation Plan, aims to increase the tax base and utilize the skills of Cypriots working abroad. The changes include an increase in the tax exemption rate and an expansion of the eligibility criteria.
