# CyStarter (English) > CyStarter supports founders, digital entrepreneurs and international investors in setting up and running a Cyprus Ltd: with governance, local substance and internationally coordinated tax structuring, always subject to an individual review. CyStarter is a brand of Statisfy Consulting Ltd., Larnaca, Cyprus. ## About CyStarter CyStarter is a services hub based in Larnaca, Cyprus, for forming and running Cyprus companies (Ltd). Focus: incorporation and director model, IP Box and tax structuring, IP development and software assets, international structuring, growth support, recruitment, and property and relocation in Cyprus. The audience is founders, digital entrepreneurs, families and international investors in the DACH region and the wider EU. Language note: tax statements are always tied to conditions. Where the IP Box fully applies, effective corporate tax can fall to 3% on qualifying IP profits; the standard rate is 15%, and an individual review is required. The director model describes a local director with documented governance, decision-making and reporting duties; the terms "nominee", "instruction-bound" and "fiduciary" are deliberately avoided. ## Questions this site answers - How to form a Cyprus Ltd, including a local director and substance - How the Cyprus IP Box works (15% standard rate; 3% effective on fully qualifying IP profits after review) - What a Cyprus Ltd costs (incorporation, ongoing management, third-party fees) - Cyprus compared with Malta, Dubai/UAE, Estonia e-Residency and Bulgaria - Non-dom, the 60-day tax-residency rule, double tax treaties and CFC/add-back rules - Relocation to Larnaca, property introductions and recruitment in Cyprus ## Services - [Incorporation & director model](https://www.cystarter.com/en/services/formation-director): End-to-end support in setting up a Cyprus Ltd: with a local director, clear governance processes and a clean register structure. - [IP Box & tax structuring](https://www.cystarter.com/en/services/tax-ip-box): Review and structuring for business models with potentially qualifying IP, including IP allocation, documentation and cross-border coordination. - [IP development & software assets](https://www.cystarter.com/en/services/ip-development-software-assets): Conception and development of protected, usable and licensable intangible assets, with a focus on custom software. - [International structuring](https://www.cystarter.com/en/services/international-structuring): From the first overseas company to multi-tier holding, subsidiary and sister structures: strategically, across borders and delivered in practice. - [Advisory & operational support](https://www.cystarter.com/en/services/advisory-operations): Strategy, finance, risk management, accounting and support in Cyprus, as connected building blocks.
