8 Jun 2026 A. Tsokkos Hotels Public LimitedCyprus: 16,500 EUR against A. Tsokkos Hotels for late annual financial report CyprusDisclosure and reporting obligations €16,500

The listed hotel group did not publish its 2024 annual financial report on time; the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) imposed a total of 16,500 EUR. At the same meeting, eleven other issuers were fined between 1,500 and 17,000 EUR for the same reason; a fine of 13,500 EUR had already been imposed on the company under the same law in 2025.

What organisations can take from it

Publication deadlines for financial reports are not negotiable – repeated delays lead to fines and, in extreme cases, to suspension of trading.

26 Nov 2024 CMC Certus Management Consultants LtdCyprus: 4,000 EUR against visa service provider CMC Certus – client documents on Scribd CyprusInternational data transfers €4,000

Without informing them, the residence permit consultancy sent a client couple’s marriage certificate and proof of salary to a sister company in Georgia for translation; the documents subsequently appeared publicly on the Scribd platform. The Επίτροπος Προστασίας Δεδομένων Προσωπικού Χαρακτήρα (Commissioner for Personal Data Protection) imposed 2,000 EUR each for an impermissible transfer to a third country and for lack of security measures, as well as a reprimand for insufficient cooperation.

What organisations can take from it

Translation by a group company in a third country is also a data transfer – requiring safeguards, information and confidentiality rules.
