Shipping
The European Commission has approved under EU state aid rules, a proposal by the Cyprus government to impose a special reduced tax (tonnage tax) on Cyprus companies engaged in international maritime transport until 31 December 2019. This tax replaces the corporate tax imposed on companies and provides companies with the option to be taxed on the net tonnage of the fleet that they operate rather than be taxed on the actual profits of their maritime transport activities.
