Legal Partners’ highly qualified and experienced team provides advice and solutions for all matters related to the registration of any type of
legal entity in Cyprus through its licensed fiduciary companies.
Leveraging its experience in the services sector and longstanding relationships with global professional associates, Orphanides, Christofides &
Co LLC offers the following services to its clients:
Re-Domiciliation of Companies to Cyprus
Cyprus Company Law permits the so called “re-domiciliation” process allowing a company to transfer its “seat” of incorporation into or out of Cyprus (Companies (Amendment) Law of 2006, Law No. 124(I)/2006).
Foreign companies that choose to transfer their domicile to Cyprus can do so without winding-up their business or legal entity and are able to benefit from the advantageous tax regime that Cyprus offers.
Domiciliation Services
We can provide a registered office and a registered address. This is essential for registering a Cyprus company.
Incorporation
We can undertake the incorporation of any type of Cyprus entity or we can facilitate the acquisition of shares in an already existing shelf company. We will make sure that you utilize all the benefits of including Cyprus in your tax structure.
Secretarial, Administration
We will undertake routine correspondence, prepare and execute resolutions, arrange payment of invoices, maintain statutory records, issue and safe keep certificates, issue powers of attorney and ensure compliance with local regulations. This allows you to focus on your core business, while we handle all the paperwork.

We can assist you with the establishment and licensing of a Cyprus Private Fund (ICIS), investment companies, and Forex companies, as well as with company listing on the Cyprus Stock Exchange. Our familiarity with the requirements and complex regulatory procedures allows us to minimize the time it may take and eliminate unnecessary costs.
