Start with the topic you need. Each section links to our most detailed guides.
If you buy property worth at least $400,000 and keep it for three years, you can apply for Turkish citizenship together with your spouse and children under 18. The valuation report has to show $400,000 or more, and the payment must go through a bank in Turkey. Most applications take 6 to 9 months.
We help you find a home, check the title deed and valuation, and work out the taxes and fees before you buy. If you want to sell later, we find a buyer for you, even if you live abroad.
We set up limited and joint-stock companies, get the tax number and help open the company bank account. If you are thinking of a work or residence permit through the company, we tell you at the start whether it will work.
Short-term, family and student residence permits, residence through a property of $200,000 or more, and work permits for employees and company owners.
We have worked with foreign clients in Istanbul since 2016. We prepare citizenship, residence and work permit applications and set up companies. As a licensed real estate office, we also find properties, check the title deed and valuation and see the purchase through, and we can help you sell later on. Before you decide, we tell you what each step costs and how long it usually takes.
