Cyprus immovable property tax for the year 2014 is due for payment until the 30th of November this year. The Cyprus Immovable Property tax is based on the total market value at 1 January 1980 for all properties held by each owner. These values appear on the title deed with reference at 1 January1980. It may, however these values have been revised due to the meanwhile building / construction of additional premises executed after the date of valuation of 1 January 1980 from the Land Registry.
The Inland Revenue Department is planning to send the relevant taxes in the month of August. Along with the Immovable Property Tax notice, a detailed statement of each property owner will also be attached as per the files of the Department of Lands and Surveys.

If the resulting Cyprus Immovable Property tax is paid at least one month before the deadline for payment that is paid until 31 October 2014 then it will be a discount of 15% on the outstanding amount. Otherwise if the payment is made after 30 November 2014, there will be an additional charge of 10% of the tax due, plus interest and any administrative fines provided for in the legislation.
