HNWI Relocation Management: Myths vs. Facts

“I can open a bank account remotely without visiting.”

Fact

2026 AML rules require an in-person biometric meeting or a pre-vetted professional introduction.

Myth

“The Pink Slip allows me to work for my own Cyprus company.”

Fact

The Visitor Permit is for passive income. For active work, you need an FIC Work Permit.

Myth

“I only need €10,000 in the bank to qualify.”

Fact

While €10,000 is the initial deposit requirement, you must prove a recurring annual income of €24,000+.

HNWI Relocation – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the "Pink Slip" suitable for HNWIs who do not wish to work?

Yes. The 2026 Temporary Residence Permit is ideal for those living off passive income (dividends/rentals). It allows you to reside in Cyprus as a visitor while managing global assets through Private Wealth Advisory. For a list of required documents for visitors, see the Civil Registry and Migration Department.

How long does it take to open a high-tier private bank account in 2026?

While standard retail banking may take months, our Professional Introduction typically results in account activation within 4 to 6 weeks, provided the source of funds is transparent. Consult the Central Bank of Cyprus AML Directives.
