Tax Reform Drill-Down: Personal Taxation
The Tsielepis Tax Academy continues its Spring Academic Programme with an in-depth analysis of the Personal Taxation provisions of the recently enacted Cyprus Tax Reform.
In response to popular demand, the Academy’s Lead Instructor, Nicolas Papapanayiotou, will focus on the Personal Taxation aspects of the new law and analyse in depth its additions and key amendments, at the same time with interpreting its consequences.
The seminar will examine the key legislative provisions governing personal taxation, address the direct tax implications associated with payroll, and explore in depth both the existing and new rules that shape the tax position of Cyprus tax resident individuals. The seminar will equip participants, through examples, with actionable insights to navigate the Cyprus personal taxation, fostering informed decision-making amid Cyprus’ push for a more transparent and competitive tax environment.
The seminar is targeted towards accountants of all levels, bookkeepers, auditors, tax consultants, tax lawyers and other professionals who deal with tax matters.
