The qualifying investment

Turkiye offers several qualifying routes. The most used is real estate. The current minimum is USD 400,000 in property, held for three years with a no sale note placed on the title deed. An appraisal by a licensed valuer is required.

Other routes include a bank deposit of USD 500,000 held for three years in a regulated Turkish bank, or USD 500,000 in government bonds or approved funds held for the same period.

Government and processing fees

On top of the investment you should budget for the valuation report, title deed charges, translation and notary costs, and the residence and citizenship application steps. These are set by the authorities and by service providers, and they change, so treat any single number as indicative and confirm the current schedule.

Professional fees

We do not name or rank firms. A licensed and independent advisor can guide the valuation, the title work and the application, and fees vary with the route and the complexity of your case. Use Get Matched below and we will introduce you in confidence.

Building a realistic budget

Start from the qualifying investment, USD 400,000 for real estate or USD 500,000 for the deposit and fund routes, then add valuation, title, translation, notary and application costs on top. The property and deposit must stay in place for three years. Confirm every current figure with the official authority before you commit.
