PROCESS FOR TURKISH CITIZENSHIP 

The procedure is divided into three (three) phases: investing, obtaining a residency permit, and becoming a Turkish citizen. In the example below, we are considering a scenario in which the applicant selects the most preferred application; and invests in real estate. 

1.    Selection of Investment
2.    Bank Account Opening, Payments & Title Deed
3.    Submission of Application
4.    Evaluation of The Application
5.    Approval & After Citizenship

INVESTMENT                                                            

•    A Turkish CBI program can be applied for by investing USD 400,000 in real estate and including a clause that ensures the property will not be sold for at least 3 (three) years in the title deed.

•    In accordance with the regulation, the chosen property must be evaluated by companies authorized by the Turkish Capital Market Board before it can be purchased. 

•    According to the evaluation, the applicant will be able to complete the purchase of the property's cost is more than USD 400,000. 

•    The conformity certificate for the investment shall be requested and collected from the relevant authority. 

RESIDENCY PERMIT

•    If the conformity certificate is submitted along with the related documents, the applicant is required to apply for a special residency permit.

•    We schedule an interview with the Migration Authority that all applicants are required to attend in person (or be represented by an attorney). 

•    The Migration Authority issues a residency permit within two weeks of receiving the required documentation and completing the interview.

TURKISH CITIZENSHIP

After the Directorate approves the residency permit of Civil Registration and Nationality, our team collects and prepares final documentation for application submission. 

After checking the documents, the Directorate sends the documents to the General Directorate, which runs an investigation on the background of the applicant with the National Intelligence Service, Financial Crimes Investigation Board, and Security General Directorate.

In the event that the investigation is successful, the application will be forwarded to the Presidency of the Turkish Republic for finalization. The applicant becomes a citizen of Turkey following the decision of the Presidency.

BENEFITS OF TURKISH CITIZENSHIP

1.    Choosing the deposit option provides a significant rate of interest; choosing the real estate investment option enables collecting rents over a period of 3 (three) years and ultimately selling the property at a higher price.

2.    Turkish citizenship laws allow each individual to have more than one citizenship. There are no acceptance conditions requiring an applicant to give up their previous citizenship.

3.    Citizenship in Turkey is hereditary from the date of acquisition. Thus, the beneficiary can pass on all rights and privileges to their heirs. (Exception: Children are over 18 years of age)
