Before the redomiciliation of the registered office to the Republic

In accordance to the provisions of the Companies Law, an overseas company, that has been incorporated in an approved country or jurisdiction, can be registered as continuing in the Republic of Cyprus and transfer its registered office to the Republic. Namely, an overseas company can transfer its business to the Republic of Cyprus without being dissolved.

However, in order to do so, it is a necessary precondition that the legislation of the overseas company’s country of origin allows for such a transfer and that the company’s memorandum of incorporation permits the possibility of its continuation under the legal system of another approved country or jurisdiction.

In order to proceed with the redomiciliation of registered office to the Republic, you must first decide upon the company’s:

• name;
• directors and secretary;
• address of its registered office;
• members and share capital;
• objects of the company;
• Memorandum and Articles of Association.
