You should seek advice from a solicitor but as you will see from various other postings there are pitfalls, costs and deposits. Search this BB and you will find many answers.



I don't think that it is a permit as such that you require.



One member of this board has good legal knowledge and his wife is also a solicitor so you might get good advice from him as well as a reliable contact.

I think you will find that you need to speak to an accountant rather than a solicitor as they set up businesses.

Flightholiday could you elaborate just a tad more to who the member is ??



Jimm, i do think that you are right as what i have read about it, it only mentions an accountant.

I have emailed the only accountants i can find (2 off) but have not had a reply.

Does anyone out there have any accountants email addresses ?



much appreciated

Check out cyprus yellow pages there are many accountants in it there are also plenty in the buzz book

yellow pages http://www.cypyp.com



But it is a business permission you will need to carry on business in TRNC unless you have a TC business partner who owns a minimum of 51 % of the business

I have a business in the TRNC, wholly British owned and I have never needed the services of a solicitor setting it up or running it. I have heard of friends who have paid solicitors to help set up and all the solicitor did was pass it to an accountant then charge a fee. Obviously everyone has a different tale to tell but this is my experience.

Re msg 6 not clear what you are saying, but you DO NOT need a cypriot partner.
