Formation. Activation. Business establishment.

One partner coordinating the full journey.

Incorporation is the starting point. A business also needs an organised corporate file, professional coordination and a clear plan for its operational requirements.

MASO acts as the central point of contact, coordinating the agreed legal, accounting, tax and banking preparation steps with the relevant professionals.

Who we support

A Cyprus business presence with international purpose.

For foreign entrepreneurs and investors, businesses from Greece, international companies entering Cyprus, startups, professional services and maritime organisations.

For a business based in Greece, we begin with the commercial purpose of the Cyprus presence and coordinate the documentation and professional steps around it.

Six Stages, One Coordinated Process

01

Business Entry Consultation

Define the business purpose, operating countries, ownership and management structure, and the needs for VAT, employees, premises and banking.

02

Compliance & KYC

Coordinate the identification and supporting documents required for shareholders and beneficial owners, the business profile and source of funds or wealth. Requirements are assessed by the relevant professionals and institutions.

03

Company Formation

Coordinate name approval, incorporation documents, shareholders and officers, registered office and submission through the relevant professionals. Organise the company certificates, share documents and corporate records.

04

Tax & Operational Activation

Coordinate tax registration and, where applicable, VAT/VIES and employer registrations with the relevant advisers. Prepare a calendar of the company’s agreed compliance requirements.

05

Banking Support

Prepare the business profile, expected transaction information and supporting KYC file for an agreed banking application. Coordinate follow-up questions. Account approval remains the decision of the bank or financial institution.

06

Delivery & Launch

Hand over the agreed digital corporate file, company and tax details, compliance calendar and next-step plan. Review the practical priorities for operating and developing the business.

Who We Work With

A Clear Scope Before You Begin
