Tax is no longer what it used to be. It is no longer confined to rates, filings and deadlines. Today, tax is strategy. It is an investment decision. It is a tool of competitiveness. And it is precisely this shift that the 9th Cyprus International Tax Conference seeks to capture, returning at one of the most critical moments for the Cypriot economy.
With the central theme “CYPRUS TAX REFORM 2026: Implementation, Impact & Positioning in a Changing Global Tax Landscape,” the conference acts as a mirror of a new era. An era in which Cyprus is implementing the most significant tax reform in decades, at a time when the international tax environment is evolving faster than ever before.
But what does this reform actually mean in practice? How does it affect businesses, investors and professionals? And—most importantly—how can Cyprus turn compliance with international rules into a genuine competitive advantage?
These questions run through the entire agenda of the conference. From the architecture and philosophy of the reform, to its day-to-day application for businesses and the country’s image in international markets, the 9th Cyprus International Tax Conference does not shy away from difficult discussions. On the contrary, it brings them to the forefront.
The programme brings together all the major themes shaping the world of tax today: OECD BEPS 2.0 and Pillar Two, European directives, DAC8 and crypto-assets, artificial intelligence and automation, tax audits, transfer pricing, and the real business impact of reform. Not as isolated topics, but as interconnected pieces of a single puzzle.
What makes the conference stand out is that it does not speak only about rules. It speaks about decisions. About how CFOs are reassessing tax risk. About how multinational groups are adjusting structures and investment plans. About how tax authorities are changing their approach. And about how tax professionals are being called to evolve—from compliance experts into strategic advisors.
Special emphasis is also placed on the bigger picture: how is Cyprus positioned after the reform? How do international investors perceive the country? What are its strengths, and where is further improvement needed? In a world where countries compete not only through tax regimes but through entire ecosystems, these questions are decisive.
The 9th Cyprus International Tax Conference is not addressed solely to tax specialists. It speaks to business leaders, executives, investors, legal and financial advisors, and decision-makers who want to understand where the game is heading—and to stay ahead of developments.
Because today, tax is not merely a regulatory framework. It is part of national strategy. And those who understand early how reform, international trends and investment decisions intersect will be the ones shaping the next chapter of the Cypriot economy.
This is exactly where the conference plays its role: not simply as a forum for information, but as a meeting point for ideas, experience and strategic thinking. Because change has already begun—and the question is no longer whether it will affect us, but how we choose to manage it.
