Cyprus

The minimum monthly wage in Cyprus has increased to €1,000 gross for full-time employees who have completed 6 months of continuous employment with the same employer, starting from 1 January 2024. The minimum wage for employees who have not completed the 6-month continuous employment period is set to €900.

This minimum wage does not apply to domestic workers, agricultural and livestock workers and shipping workers, as well as to workers for whom the minimum wages in the hotel industry applies.

For customers of Remote, all employee payments will be made in equal monthly installments on or before the last working day of each calendar month, payable in arrears.

We can help you get a new employee started in Cyprus fast. The minimum onboarding time we need is only 7 working days.

Our team ensures your employees are onboarded and paid as quickly as possible while keeping your business compliant with all local employment legislation. The minimum onboarding time begins after the employee submits all required information onto the Remote platform. The onboarding timeline is also dependent upon registration with local authorities.

For all non-nationals of the country of employment, the Right to Work assessment (if applicable) will add three extra days to the total time to onboard. There may be extra time required if we need to follow-up on the right to work assessment.

Please note, payroll cut-off dates can impact the actual first day of employment. Remote has a payroll cut-off date of the 10th of the month unless otherwise specified.
