I believe that, even though I am a resident in Cyprus, rental income that I receive from a flat in the UK can be declared on my UK tax return and not in Cyprus.

Yes, that's right: as I understand it, rental income on a property in the UK is one of the few income sources that remains taxable in the UK, even if/when you become tax resident in Cyprus.

@J.Batcheler

This is true of everything covered by the relevant 鈥淒ouble Taxation鈥� treaty. As a rule of thumb if it鈥檚 an immovable property it鈥檚 taxed in situ - the country where it鈥檚 located.

bear in mind, you鈥檒l need to show your income pre-tax for Cyprus residency, if this applies to your status here.
