Turkish Citizenship by Property Investment
Turkish citizenship by property investment is one of the exceptional ways to acquire citizenship of the Turkish Republic. With decisions published in the Official Gazette on September 19th 2018, the government announced a series of exceptional ways to get citizenship by investment in Turkey.
One of these exceptional ways is that foreign investors, who purchase real estate in Turkey valuing at least 400.000 USD, are eligible to apply for Turkish citizenship.
Our sister company, Antalya Homes has mediated numerous real estate sales in Turkey for citizenship by investment purposes and finalized citizenship applications successfully. Today, with the same professional approach in the business world, TekceVisa carries out all legal operations regarding your Turkish citizenship applications.
As your legal representative in Turkey, our team of professional lawyers make all legal applications just at the right time and finalize the process within the crash time, without any failure.
Bayram Tekce, the Chairman of our company, has made essential contributions to the procedures of Turkish citizenship by investment program. Giving the correct feedback from the field, he has helped the government offices revise the issues that make things difficult.
More importantly, Bayram Tekce masterminded the one-stop agency offices in Turkey where all bureaucratic processes of foreign investors can be carried out at a single center. These offices have both shortened the period and eased the Turkish citizenship application process.
Turkish Citizenship by Financial Instruments
Turkish citizenship by investment program includes some other exceptional ways of getting Turkish passports for foreign investors. Other financial instruments to get Turkish citizenship are as follows;
Foreign investors who;
- Make a fixed capital investment of at least 500,000 USD or equivalent in foreign currency or equivalent Turkish Lira and make a commitment to keep it for 3 years,
- Create employment for at least 50 people,
- Deposit at least 500,000 USD or equivalent foreign currency or equivalent Turkish Lira to banks operating in Turkey, and make a commitment to hold their deposits for 3 years,
- Purchase government debt instruments amounting to at least 500,000 USD or equivalent foreign currency or equivalent Turkish Lira for 3 years,
- Purchase a real estate investment fund participation share or a venture capital investment fund participation share of at least 500,000 USD or equivalent foreign currency or equivalent Turkish Lira, and make a commitment to hold it for at least three years,
are eligible to apply for Turkish citizenship by investment.
All foreign investors who meet the criteria below can apply to the investment program with any of the investment instruments listed above.
- A clean criminal record
- Health insurance coverage
- Not having entered or lived illegally in Turkey before
TekceVisa serves its clients in citizenship applications of investors for all investment instruments. With the professional service you get from TekceVisa, you will make the right investment at the right time. Our experienced lawyers will guide you through Turkish citizenship by investment process.

Any residential property purchased in Turkey is counted as applicable for a residence permit in Turkey. Having a residence permit, you can take advantage of almost all public services in Turkey, including healthcare and education.
Besides offering an opportunity to get it on your behalf with a power of attorney, TekceVisa offers assistance in preparing the documents and guidance throughout the process to applicants if they prefer applying in person.

VAT Exemption in Turkey
When a foreigner buys commercial real estate, a residential property with more than 150 m2 area, or land valuing over 2000 TL for each m2, it is subject to VAT exemption.
This means buyers do not pay the VAT which is 18% of the sales price of the property. The only condition to get a VAT exemption certificate in Turkey is that the buyer hasn’t visited Turkey in recent years.
We have helped thousands of property buyers in the property purchasing process for VAT exemption. TekceVisa assists you in taking the advantage of Vat exemption.

Non-Lucrative Residence Permit for Spain

If you are supporting your family with you, 100% of the IPREM must be demonstrated in your bank account for each family member.
With a non-lucrative residence permit, you can not work or carry out any professional activity in Spain. However, this visa is still a good option for those who want to reside in Spain and work remotely for a company in another country. It is also preferred by international retirees who want to live in a European country.
