Cyprus visa

[COLTEO]

I am currently planning an extended stay in Cyprus, and I am seeking advice on the best way to obtain a visa to stay there for one year. I have heard about different options, but I would like firsthand information.

There is one particular visa called "visitor's visa" , it runs for one year. It‌ can be obtained before entering the country,but also if you enter with a tourist visa‍ ( 90 days) you can transforn it to the visitors visa mentioned. I have assumed⁠ that you are a third country ( non EU ) national.

 

[COLTEO]

Yes, I am outside the EU. I would like to have a visa that⁣ allows me to work and study
What budget should I plan?

There is no way⁢ to get before the visa directly to Cyprus because in my country there is no︀ embassy of Cyprus even neighboring countries?

 

[CyprusLawyer101]

The Visa I am mentioning would not apply in your case.

 

[COLTEO]

Which visa but do you advise then?

 

[JohnLocke]

Do you know of any Visa how Op can get in or a different‍ method ?

 

[yngmind]

Can you sponsor yourself in Cyprus if you have Cyprus LTD?

 

[WorldCitizen99]

Yes - I am doing just that. You can get a business visa and‍ hire yourself as an employee

 

[COLTEO]

Can you hire me too?

 

[yngmind]

That's cool! As far as I‍ know, they introduced some requirements to hire like you need like $100k eur or something⁠ like that on the company account

 

[WorldCitizen99]

The business visas I'm familiar with require 200-250K.

probably just adds a layer of complexity that I don't⁠ need right now. The whole process has been frustrating and difficult enough up to this⁤ point.

Only if you are not EU citizen you need to obtain Visa in Cyprus true?‌

 

[COLTEO]

Yes
