On the 24th May 2016 Cyprus and the Government of the Republic of Latvia signed the treaty for the avoidance of double taxation on income in Brussels.
Cyprus is now approaching having sixty double taxation treaties in force.
The agreement covers the Latvian enterprise income tax and personal income tax and the Cypriot income tax, corporate income tax, capital gains tax and special contribution for the defence of the republic tax as well as any substantially similar taxes that are imposed in the future.
Economic ties between the two countries have been strengthening over the past few years and it is hoped that the treaty will lead to further development.
