Can I register a Cyprus company while living abroad, and what documents need apostille?

Dear Sir, Thank you for your message and for your interest in incorporating a company in Cyprus. We would be pleased to assist you with this matter. Please note that our legal team can proceed with the registration of a Cyprus private limited liability company upon completion of a full KYC (Know Your Client) verification process, as required by Cypriot law and our firm’s compliance policies. The cost for company incorporation is €1,200 plus VAT, together with any actual expenses (such as Registrar of Companies fees and courier charges). The estimated timeline for completion is approximately two weeks from the date we receive all required documentation and KYC information. We will guide you step-by-step through the process to ensure a smooth and efficient incorporation without the need for you to travel. Please confirm if you would like us to proceed so we can send you a list of the required information and documents for KYC and company formation.

Please note that no apostille or notarization is needed for the incorporation of a Cyprus Limited Liability Company. The usual timeline for incorporation is 10 to 15 working days. We would be happy to assist with your particular needs and also address any questions on fees and costs. Kind regards, PERICLEOUS MICHAIL LLC.

Thank you for your message. You can incorporate a private company in Cyprus without traveling. The engaged law firm/service provider undertakes the process on your behalf. Documents signed overseas do not authomatically require an apostille; this is necessary if requested for example by an official authority or if they will be used in the UK. There are two main routes for company incorporation: accelerated and standard. Timeframes and costs vary depending on the route chosen and the specific services required. The process begins with the name approval application, followed by the submission of all required incorporation documents to the Cyprus Registrar of Companies by the engaged professional. Using the accelerated route, name approval response is typical given within one week, and the company can be incorporated within 1-2 weeks from the time of submission of all necessary documents. Without acceleration, name approval response usually takes 3 weeks, and incorporation is completed within 3-4 weeks. We will be more than happy to assist you in this matter further. If you so wish, please contact us directly. Thank you.
