Services / Get it done

Get the paperwork done right, for a fraction of lawyer prices.

Doing it yourself is cheap but easy to get wrong, and one missing document means another trip to the immigration office. A full lawyer is thorough but costs €500 to €2,000. We put sensible rungs in between.

Koufettas Law handles complex cases end to end.

Roughly 80 to 90 percent cheaper than an agency or a lawyer, and still backed by Koufettas Law. Government fees are always shown separately, never hidden in the price.

For scale: on the official Cyprus sworn-translator fee schedule a certified translation costs €14 for a short document and €23 per 250-word page, rising to €26 to €30 for specialised legal or financial documents, and Cyprus law firms publish hourly rates of €200 to €500 and quote roughly €200 to €1,000 to draft or review a contract. Those are market and government rates, not our prices. Verified 4 August 2026 against the fee schedule published by the Press and Information Office and published Cyprus translator and law-firm rates.

Why New to Cyprus

Why people trust us with the boring, stressful bits.

  • Lawyer-backed, when you want it.

    A licensed Cyprus advocate at Koufettas Law reviews and signs off the Reviewed tier. You decide whether to add it.

  • Built on official sources.

    Every requirement traces back to gov.cy, the CRMD and the Migration Department, not to a forum thread.

  • Real lived experience.

    Our relocation guides are written by Volha Bendzik, who moved to Cyprus in 2022 with her family and went through the schools, banking and permit runaround herself.

  • Greek-side only.

    We only deal with Republic-of-Cyprus property and title. We never touch property in the occupied north, where title is the real risk.

  • Cheaper than a lawyer, honest about it.

    We are not the cheapest option (the government DIY route is), and we are not a law firm. We are the sensible middle that saves you money and mistakes.

Relocation and living guides are written by Volha Bendzik, a Cyprus newcomer parent. Legal, tax and immigration pages are reviewed by Harris Koufettas, a licensed advocate at Koufettas Law.

Not a law firm. Legal review is provided by Koufettas Law, a licensed Cyprus law firm.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is this service legal?

Yes. We help you prepare and check your own Cyprus permit application against official requirements, and a licensed Cyprus lawyer can review it. We do not impersonate a lawyer or the authorities. Only the Cyprus government decides your permit, and only a lawyer can give you legal advice.

Are you a law firm?

No. New to Cyprus is not a law firm. Our AI document check and self-serve tools are not legal advice. When you choose the Reviewed tier, a licensed advocate at Koufettas Law reviews and signs off your application. That review is the part you can rely on as legal work.

How much cheaper is this than a lawyer?

A full lawyer or agency typically costs €500 to €2,000 for a residence permit. Our self-serve check starts around €29, and a lawyer-reviewed package is around €99 to €149. That is roughly 80 to 90 percent less, for the common, straightforward permits. Government fees are separate and shown upfront.

Which Cyprus permit do I need?

If you are an EU citizen registering your residence, you usually need the Yellow Slip (MEU1). If you are a non-EU citizen, you usually start with the Pink Slip. Our free check asks a few questions and points you to the right one. Confirm your case with the authorities or a lawyer.

What happens if my application is rejected?

We help you submit a correct, complete application, which is the part that gets most filings rejected. We cannot control the government's decision or its timing, and we never promise approval. If a lawyer reviews your package, you get their professional sign-off before you file.

Is my data safe?

Your documents are stored encrypted and held in the EU. After your filing, you can download your pack and we purge the originals on request. We only use your data to run your application.

Do I have to pay to see if my documents are ready?

No. The free check shows you how many issues your application has before you pay anything. You only pay when you want the detailed fixes, the pre-filled form, or a lawyer review.

Which services can I use right now?

The Yellow Slip permit service is live. Pink Slip, Category F, renewals, contract review, translations and relocation help are coming soon. You can join the waitlist for any of them and we will tell you the moment it opens.

This is general information, not legal or immigration advice. Confirm your case with the relevant authority or a qualified professional.
