Cyprus Visa Requirements: Do You Qualify?

Check whether your income or savings meet Cyprus's requirements for Digital Nomad Visa and Visitor residence permit (pink slip) for your whole family.
How it works

Using the checker

  1. Enter who moves with you: the adults besides you (a spouse or partner, dependent parents) and the children.
  2. Enter your monthly income before tax and the savings you can show.
  3. Each route shows the amount it asks of your household and whether your figures meet it — by income, or by savings where the rules accept them.

The routes and how the amounts are worked out

  • Digital Nomad Visa — Remote work for employers or clients outside Cyprus. At least €3,500 a month net, + 20% for a spouse or partner and + 15% per child. One year, renewable for two more; no work for Cyprus employers; a yearly quota of permits.
  • Visitor residence permit (pink slip) — Living in Cyprus on income from abroad without working. At least €24,000 a year (€2,000 a month) transferred from abroad to a Cyprus account, + 20% for a spouse and + 15% per child. For a first permit a deposit of at least €10,000 is also accepted. One year, renewable.
  • Permanent residence by investment — Investors, with their spouse and minor children. €300,000 in a new home, commercial property, a Cypriot company or a Cypriot fund, plus a secured income of €50,000 a year (+ €15,000 spouse, + €10,000 per child) Proved every year; the permit is renewed every 10 years. Citizenship by investment closed in November 2020.

Money is not the only requirement

Every route also asks for health insurance, a clean criminal record and documents proving the income, translated and legalised where required. A lawyer checks the whole file before you apply and helps with the residence permit after arrival.
