Our Intellectual Property Services

Registration & Protection of IP Rights

We assist with the registration and protection of patents, trademarks, designs and copyrights under the relevant Cypriot laws and EU frameworks. Cyprus has a well-established IP regime and offers favourable tax treatment for IP holding companies.

IP Structuring & Tax-Efficient Use

Our firm supports clients in structuring their IP assets, including licensing, assignment and exploitation frameworks. We also advise on the Cyprus “IP Box” regime which allows significant tax advantages for qualifying IP income.

Enforcement & Dispute Resolution

When IP rights are infringed, we provide robust enforcement strategies — including cease-and-desist actions, injunction applications, litigation and arbitration. Cyprus law permits strong remedies for IP infringement and there are clear mechanisms for enforcement.

International & Cross-Border IP Matters

Given the global nature of intellectual property, our team handles multi-jurisdictional registrations, cross-border licensing, and enforcement of rights beyond Cyprus. We are well connected internationally and can co-ordinate global IP strategies for clients.

Why Choose Cyprus for IP Holding & Protection?

Cyprus offers a competitive legal and tax environment for intellectual property assets: from alignment with EU and international IP conventions to favourable tax leverage for IP revenues. Our local knowledge ensures you benefit from best practice in registration, exploitation and enforcement of IP rights.
