Citizenship by Investment

Every year, thousands of foreign investors or individuals want to get Turkish citizenship and are in search of it. To have Turkish citizenship by investment, significant changes were made in 2018 and the details required for the Turkish citizenship of investors were determined.

While there was a 1 million USD requirement to acquire Turkish citizenship through property investment. However today a foreign investor who purchases a property or properties worth minimum 400,000 USD can obtain Turkish citizenship. The spouse and children below 18 years old can also obtain the Turkish citizen.

There are certain conditions to getting Turkish citizenship by investment, and if these conditions are met, Turkish citizenship is acquired in a short time. These conditions:

  1. To make a fixed capital investment of at least 500,000 USD.
  2. Buying real estate worth a minimum of 400.000 USD. It can be a single property or multiple properties. Applicants must not sell the real estate for at least 3 years.
  3. Employing at least 50 people.
  4. Depositing at least 500,000 US Dollars to banks operating in Turkey with a three-year retention condition.

Real estate worth at least 400.000 USD must be purchased for individuals to be granted Turkish citizenship. Then the value of the purchased house is inspected by the relevant institutions. Approval for citizenship is given within an average of 3 – 7 days. After the approval, a citizenship application can be made. The citizenship process is completed within 2 – 6 months.

Citizenship application is a very easy and fast process. However, you should get help from experts when purchasing real estate. You do not need to pass any tests for citizenship. If all the conditions are met, citizenship will be granted. In addition, if you have problems coming to Turkey, you can handle these operations by giving power of attorney.
