房产税要了解
在塞浦路斯购房税费和维护房产费用与其他国家比相对较低，由于塞浦路斯属于英国税法，境内所有房屋的税率要按照1980年的市价来计算。投资人从购置房屋开始到拥有房屋，需要缴纳增值税、印花税、过户费、不动产税、地方政府税等。在世贸通的推动下，原本于2012年12月底到期的减免过户费政策成功延期两年，至2014年底，投资者在这期间购房可省下十几万到几十万元费用。
此外，房产每年需缴纳的不动产税等税费每年大约为几百欧元，可以忽略不计。物业管理费，别墅基本都不用缴纳，公寓会适当收取，费用也非常低。
New rates have been announced for stamp duty, when buying a property in Cyprus, taking effect from 1st March 2013. Please do not confuse with title Deeds/Transfer Tax, this is a different levy and has it's own incentives for this year.
The change is the introduction of a first tier of 5,000 which is tax free. This is one of the few examples of taxes going down instead of up in the past few years.
The new rates for all contracts to be stamped are as follows:
1 - 5,000 Zero duty
5,001 - 170,000 1.5 euro per 1000 euro value (i.e. 1.5 per thousand)
170,001 - Any above 2.0 euro per 1000 euro value (i.e. 2.0 per thousand)
For example a property sold for 250,000 euro will carry stamp duty as follows:
• The first 5,000 Carry a Zero rate 0
• Next 165,000 Carry 1.5 per thousand 247.50
• The rest of 80,000 Carry 2.0 per thousand 160.00
250,000 Total charge 407.50
