According to the Stamp Duty Law (19/1963), stamp duties are paid in Cyprus, only if: (a) the contemplated asset is situated in the Republic of Cyprus; or (b) the contemplated matters / or things will take place in Cyprus, irrespective of the place where the relevant document was initially drafted. 

The maximum amount payable as Stamp Duty is €20,000.

A document can be stamped: (a) within 30 days, if signed in Cyprus; or (b) within 30 days from its receipt in Cyprus, if signed abroad. Failure of stamping within these timeframes is possible, however, certain penalties apply.

For Contracts which do not have a fixed value, the stamp duty is calculated on the value of the contract and based on the terms of the contract per se.
