Yes - as at mid-2023, both a residence permit and a permanent residence permit are issued by the Cypriot authorities. Moreover, there are no prohibitions based on nationality and, for example, citizens of the Russian Federation also successfully become residents of the country. There are more than ten ways to get a residence permit. This is , for example, a student visa, a residence permit for financially independent persons, digital nomads, a residence permit based on employment, an investment Fast Track ... Of course, since the pandemic, many coordination procedures have taken longer than usual, but the country's authorities have not imposed any restrictions. But there are many nuances in the process, so each case requires individual consideration.

Foreign citizens can still open a Cypriot bank account. Only citizens of the Russian Federation and Belarus have difficulties. Most likely if you just come from the street in 2023, they will not open an account for you. And it is important that the “source of funds” is not associated with sanctioned activities. In practice, the list of incomes considered "sanctioned" has recently been expanding. An exception, for example, is the income received from the rental of real estate. By the way, it is not necessary to have your own bank account to buy a property if you are in Cyprus. But having already purchased it, and furthermore, having received permanent residence, both Russians and Belarusians can open an account.

Just note that it makes sense to contact (and communicate) with a reliable and professional company - with a history and positive reviews. Firstly, you involve specialists who understand the market, prices, offers, and the transaction procedure as assistants. They will help solve problems in an unfamiliar country with its own specifics. Second, you can find a company that speaks your language. You will be helped to organize viewings, collect documents, agree on deadlines and arrange necessary meetings and procedures. Thirdly, in many cases you can expect the price to come even down for a particular object - serious agencies usually have "special conditions" when dealing with developers. You should not hope for huge discounts, but you definitely won’t overpay. Finally, a good agency will help you resolve issues that are not directly related to the purchase. Teaching children, settling in a new place, searching for a master or a specialist of any profile - the needs can be very different.
