Who It’s For

Case Study
TIC/TIN Issued After Incorporation (Bank & VAT Ready)
Client: Newly incorporated Cyprus company (anonymised)
The company needed a tax number to progress bank onboarding and VAT registration.
MegaServe checked the certificate set and signatories, prepared the file, submitted, and handled clarifications. After issuance, we provided a bank-ready confirmation pack and a clean handover for the VAT/tax advisor.
Result: TIC/TIN issued without resubmissions, the bank onboarding unblocked the same week, and the VAT registration was filed the following week using the bank-ready confirmation pack — keeping the incorporation-to-trading timeline on schedule.

We provide certification formats to avoid resubmissions. Translations/apostilles arranged where required.
Risk & Mitigations
- Authority queues: we cannot control timing, but we reduce delays with a clean file.
- Certification errors: we give formats and samples before submission.
- Next steps: we coordinate with your bank and VAT/tax advisor to avoid duplicated work.
FAQs
What’s the difference between TIC and TIN?
Both terms refer to the taxpayer identification number used by the Cyprus Tax Department. We use TIC/TIN interchangeably for clarity.
Do directors or foreign shareholders need a personal TIC/TIN?
Sometimes. Banks or authorities may request it depending on activity and filings. We confirm this during intake.
Can you fast-track the number?
We cannot control authority queues, but we pre-check documents, follow correct formats, and answer clarifications quickly.
Will you share the TIC/TIN with our bank and auditor?
Yes. On request, we provide a confirmation pack and update your corporate records.
Is a TIC/TIN required for a Cyprus company?
Yes. Every Cyprus company needs a tax identification number (TIC/TIN) to open a bank account, register for VAT, file tax returns, and meet ongoing compliance obligations. It is one of the first steps after incorporation.
How soon after incorporation must a Cyprus company obtain a TIC/TIN?
Every Cyprus company is required to register with the Tax Department and obtain a Tax Identification Code (TIC/TIN) within 60 days of incorporation. This is a statutory deadline, and the TIC/TIN is the prerequisite for opening a bank account, registering for VAT, and filing tax returns — so it is one of the first administrative steps after a company is formed. MegaServe prepares and lodges the registration promptly with a clean file to avoid resubmissions and keep the incorporation-to-trading timeline on track.
How much does TIC/TIN registration cost?
We offer fixed-fee pricing for TIC/TIN registration covering document check, forms preparation, submission, clarifications, and the confirmation pack. The Cyprus Tax Department does not charge a fee for TIC/TIN issuance itself. Additional items (e-Services activation, translations, legalisations, certified copies) are priced separately and quoted up-front. We confirm the quote after intake with no hidden charges.
