Tax registry and VAT notifications from the Cyprus Tax Department

The Cyprus Tax Department manages TIC (Tax Identification Code), VAT, Special Defence Contribution and social insurance. Every business must receive notifications for submission deadlines, outstanding amounts and status changes. 4notify fires these notifications from the company's ERP / accounting software, with reminder scheduling and audit-grade filing.

Context

A missed VAT deadline can mean a 10% fine + 1.75% monthly interest. For accountants with 200+ client portfolios, manual tracking is unfeasible — an automated reminder scheme is necessary.

Legal framework
Ν. 95(Ι)/2000 — Νόμος ΦΠΑ Κύπρου, άρθρο 51

Reminders on submission deadlines allowed via electronic means with consent.

Tax Department Circular 4/2024

Guidance on TIC management and electronic notifications via agent.

GDPR άρθρο 9 — ειδικές κατηγορίες

Tax data are not sensitive, but require retention per tax legislation (7 years).

Voyage

An accountant with 200+ clients sees in the dashboard who has a deadline in <7 days and who hasn't yet submitted.
