How it works

Capital gains tax on Cyprus property is 20% of the gain. The gain is the sale price less selling costs and the purchase cost adjusted for inflation. From 1 January 2026 the lifetime exemption is €30,000, or €150,000 when selling a qualifying main residence. Tax firms deduct it from the gain.
