In the evolving global business landscape, the concept of economic substance has become paramount, especially for jurisdictions like Cyprus that position themselves as attractive hubs for international business. The necessity for economic substance in Cyprus companies arises from a confluence of international regulatory demands, and the drive for maintaining Cyprus tax advantages.

Cyprus, as a member of the European Union, must adhere to EU regulations and directives aimed at combating tax evasion, such as the Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive (ATAD) and OECD Guidelines in order to maintain the tax benefits of a Cyprus resident company.

Company economic substance is therefore necessary in Cyprus for several key reasons, mainly revolving around compliance with international tax standards, maintaining tax benefits, and preventing tax evasion and avoidance, so the tax authorities so tax authorities of other countries may not dispute the tax residency of the Company in Cyprus.
