Pursuant to sections 104 and 105 of the Municipalities Law 111/1985, and a City Council’s decision dated 26 September 2019, the Limassol Municipality announced its decision to impose annual trade license fees on legal entities having their registered office address within the geographic boundaries of the Municipality as follows:

  • For legal entities working independently, an annual fee of € 150.00
  • For legal entities in a group of companies, an annual fee of € 85.00
  • For inactive legal entities (dormant companies), an annual fee of € 50.00
