API

How?

Regardless of the quantity, by achieving the 250,000 USD worth requirement, you can apply and start the process. Houses, apartments, offices, stores or lands are ahead of you. You can create various options in any province of Turkey via having an official appraisal for each property. We need a sign of yours suggesting that you cannot sell your property for 3 years at the Property Registry Office.

Additionally, you can buy commercial properties, as another choice than the real estate, and rent your investment. Still, you cannot sell your property.

Each property should have been bought after September 19, 2018. The limit changes to 1,000,000 USD for the purchases before that date.

The Sale

The declaration of the values and appraisal values should be consistent with one another at the sales, in Property Registry Office. If your transaction is made in Turkish Lira or another current, the USD value is declared through the Turkish Central Bank with the current rate, at the date of your title transfer. This means that you do not have to buy your property in USD.

The trade between the seller and the buyer should be proven by bank receipts and can only be happening through banks.

ELIGIBILITIES

If you are married, your spouse can get citizenship as well, added to your dependents (children under the age of 18) if you have any. And as this comes additionally with one applicant there will no other name taken to the title deed. As Turkish law does not recognize marriages that are homosexual relationships or polygamy your partner/spouse should be the opposite sex of yours and legally married.

If a male applicant with multiple wives applies for citizenship, only one of the spouses will be eligible.

 

No other relatives (adult children who are over 18, parents etc.) are allowed to get citizenship by one’s application. But if you have a child who is disabled and cannot take care of him/herself over the age of 18, with the approval of a documented health report, they can get citizenship with your approval. The residence permit is also granted for you and your spouse/kids. If you have dual nationality or would like to, you are allowed to have dual nationality in Turkey with the allowance of your original country. If your original nationality does not belong to one without an allowance for dual citizenship, you need to forfeit that.
