Cyprus TP in 2026

Arm's-length pricing.
Defensible documentation.

Cyprus applies the OECD arm's-length principle to transactions between connected persons. From 2026, full Local File thresholds are €5 million for goods, €10 million for financing and €2.5 million for services, IP licensing or royalties and other categories.

Threshold relief does not remove the need for arm's-length pricing. We scale the documentation to the transaction and risk profile, keeping agreements, functional analysis, benchmarking and accounting outcomes aligned.
