your TIC (tax identification number) is the one given to you at the local tax office when you register with them to pay tax here instead of in UK. Once you have that you enter on the tax form in the box provided, then you fill in your form, Don't forget to change your pension that you receive, into euro! The tax office are very helpful if you have problems but you will need to go in to speak to someone. Good luck!

Thanks for your help, have sorted it all out so can have a drop of the nectar to calm me down!!!!

Is it mandatory to apply for such a number even you don´t have taxable income in Cyprus?

My understanding of the law is YES.. How can the tax people here know that you don't have taxable income if you don't fill in a form and prove it.?

Yes, if you live here for more than 183 days in a year.Even if you are under the tax threshold they will require a tax return. They may decide you don't need to file but that is their decision.
