Big news! The long-awaited EU Blue Card is finally becoming a reality in Cyprus — and applications officially open this Monday, 7th July.
This is a major win for highly skilled non-EU professionals looking to live and work in Cyprus with all the perks of EU mobility. The Blue Card offers not just a fast-track to residency, but also the freedom to move across EU countries, bring your family with you, and enjoy generous tax benefits.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Minimum salary: €43,632 gross per year
- Eligible fields: ICT, pharmaceutical research, and maritime
- Tax perks: 50% income tax exemption if you moved to Cyprus after July 2023
- Freedom to move: Work in other EU countries short-term without extra paperwork
- Family-friendly: Bring your spouse and kids — they get full access to work and stay as long as you do
Whether you're already in Cyprus or considering relocating, this could be your gateway to a brighter future in the EU.
We’ll keep you posted with tips, guidance, and updates as the process unfolds.
Applications open Monday — get ready.
