Only Pay Your Own Immovable Property Tax

Sam Orgill ProACT Partnership Expatriate Advice Suggests You enjoy the reductions in Immovable Property Tax (IMPT) and that you Only Pay Your Own Immovable Property Tax. IMPT is being scrapped in Cyprus, but don't throw away money where you are not obliged.

Developers IMPT

Don’t get caught out.  Since 2014 contract of sale owners, without title deeds, have been able to register and pay IMPT directly. This is always at a lower IMPT rate than the developers who pay at a rate based upon their total land holdings.

This is because developers pay an IMPT rate based upon the whole title deed of their development. This could be 3 times as much, 1.9% instead of 0.6%.  So registering to pay IMPT direct if you hold a contract of sale gives a big tax saving on your overseas property.

Buyers only have to pay developers IMPT for previous years if their contract of sale explicitly states the buyer is responsible for IMPT.
