Citizenship Types in Turkey

Citizenship by Investment: In 2018, the Turkish government introduced a new fast-track system to become a Turkish citizen. People who are eligible to apply include anyone who has bought a property worth 250.000 USD or deposited 500.000 USD in Turkish banks. Both transactions will need to stay in place for three years. People who have invested at least 500.000 USD in fixed capital or employ 50 Turkish people are also eligible. (Alternatively, read more about the Turkish Citizenship By Fund Investment here)

The Turquoise System: Introduced in 2017, the Turquoise System allows people who have skills or attributes in technology, economics, sports, cultural and arts, as well as business executives and investors to apply for an alternative type of citizenship that grants almost full rights. (Read more about the Turquoise Card system here)

Property and Residence Permit Holders: Any property owner in Turkey who has lived in the country for a straight, uninterrupted period of 5 years can also apply on the condition that they have stayed for 5 years in Turkey. Article 11 of Act 5901 lists the requirements for an uninterrupted residence permit. There isn’t a minimal amount for the property value.

Birth: The easiest way is to be born in a family with a Turkish mother and father. According to Article 1 of the Turkish Citizenship Law No. 403, citizens born to one or both Turkish parents have the right to get citizenship at once. Alternatively, if a mother and father are successful in their applications, this is extended to the children. Anyone who has lost their Turkish citizenship can also re-apply.

Marriage: Many foreigners have obtained citizenship after 3 years of marriage to a Turkish citizen. Certain conditions apply including living together, refraining from behaviour that could damage the marital union and posing no threat to national security or public order.

Become Citizen with your Family

Your spouse and children under 18 years old can acquire citizenship together with you at the same time.

No need to be a Permanent Resident

You do not have to have lived continuously in Turkey for a certain period to become eligible for citizenship. You can continue to live abroad and apply for citizenship as soon as you get the residence permit.

No Wealth Declaration

When you apply for citizenship, you are not required to declare your assets or income that you currently have in other countries.

High Return of Investment

After holding your investment for 3 years, you can cash out your investment. The Turkish property market has an average capital appreciation of 12% annually. Property prices rise roughly 20-25% yearly in İstanbul.
