A referral route for accountants, tax advisers, private client solicitors and wealth managers whose clients are weighing a move. You keep the relationship. We do the part you have no reason to hold in-house.
Referral arrangements go wrong when nobody writes down where one firm stops and the other starts. So here it is, before anything else.
We do not advise on your client's affairs in their home country, we do not review your work, and we do not market other services to anyone you introduce. When the Cyprus work finishes, the relationship you had before it started is the relationship you still have.
Cyprus tax structuring, residency and immigration routes, company formation and substance, property, banking, schools and the practical sequence of the move. That is the whole scope. Anything touching their existing jurisdiction stays with you.
We are not a law firm and we do not present ourselves as one. Every plan is reviewed by licensed Cypriot tax and immigration advisers before your client acts on it, and filings are executed and signed by regulated Cypriot professionals. You are not lending your name to unqualified advice.
You are copied on the written summary that follows the first call, and on the scope and fixed fee before any work begins. Nothing is agreed with your client behind you, and you can stop the process at any point without explaining why.
Three steps, and the first one costs your client nothing.
Send us the question by email, or introduce the client directly, whichever suits the relationship. Plenty of partners start by asking us something on a client's behalf without naming them, which is a perfectly sensible way to test whether we are any good before putting your name to it.
A thirty-minute call covering their position, the routes actually open to them and the honest trade-offs. A written summary follows within two working days, copied to you. Your client keeps it whether or not they go further, and if Cyprus is the wrong answer for them we say so on that call.
If they proceed, the scope and the fee are set out in writing before work begins. No hourly billing and no scope creep. You are copied on it, and we report back to you at the points that matter for your own planning, such as when tax residency actually changes.
The firms this works best for have one thing in common: clients raise leaving, and answering properly needs Cypriot counsel the firm has no reason to employ.
Owner-managed business clients asking what a move would mean, usually around a sale, a large distribution year, or a shift to working from anywhere.
Clients whose plans span two jurisdictions, where succession, domicile and residency questions need a Cypriot view alongside your own.
Clients restructuring around a liquidity event who want to understand the residency question before they commit to anything irreversible.
Where a client needs genuine Cyprus substance and a real relocation rather than a registered address, and you would rather refer than improvise.
Placing people or moving teams into Cyprus, where the permit route and the family side decide whether the placement holds.
If your honest answer today is that you would have to look it up, that is exactly the gap this fills, and it is a better answer than a confident one that turns out to be wrong.
A twenty-minute call, no client details needed. We will tell you how we work, you tell us what your clients actually ask, and we both find out whether this is worth either of our time.
We will come back within one working day with suggested times. If you mentioned a live client situation we will have looked at it before the call rather than on it.
Nothing on this page is tax, legal or immigration advice, and no arrangement obliges you to refer anybody. If you have a client question you would rather ask before committing to anything, ask it. We would rather be useful once than pitched at twice.
