When Can You Transfer Inherited Property?

Before a property can be transferred, the following steps must be completed:

• Probate must be finalized in Cyprus

• You must obtain a Certificate of Heirs from the court

• Any inheritance tax certificates or waivers (if applicable) must be issued

Once these are ready, the Cyprus Land Registry will allow the transfer to proceed.

Required Documents for Property Transfer

We help you collect and submit:

• Death certificate and court probate decision

• Certificate of Heirs

• Valid title deed of the property

• Identification documents (passport, ID)

• Power of Attorney (if you authorize our firm)

We ensure that all documents are apostilled, translated (if needed), and compliant with Cypriot legal standards.

How Long Does the Process Take?

On average, the full transfer process takes 2 to 6 months, depending on:

• The complexity of the estate

• Any debts or mortgages on the property

• How quickly the necessary documents are provided

Our office manages all communication with the Land Registry and follows up on each step.

Can It Be Done Without Traveling to Cyprus?

Yes. Through a notarized Power of Attorney, we can:

• Represent you at court and Land Registry offices

• Submit all applications and documentation

• Handle registration fees and tax clearances

Our clients in the U.S. complete everything without needing to visit Cyprus.
