The Singapore Global Investor Programme grants permanent residence to experienced business owners and investors who place substantial capital in Singapore. It is open to Turkish nationals who meet the profile and investment tests.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Nationality is not the gate here. The programme targets a track record. Typical profiles include established business owners, founders of fast growing companies, and family office principals, each with strong financials. A Turkish applicant is assessed on this business profile rather than passport.
The Economic Development Board reviews the strength of your business, your role and your investment plan. Confirm the current profile criteria with the official authority before you apply.
There are three published options. Option A is an investment of at least S$10 million in a new or expanding Singapore business in an approved sector. Option B is an investment of at least S$25 million in an approved select fund under the programme. Option C is a single family office with at least S$200 million in assets under management, of which at least S$50 million is deployed in specified Singapore investments.
We do not name or recommend any firm. To compare vetted advisors for a Singapore application, use Get Matched. Confirm the current options with the Economic Development Board.
The path from a complete submission to approval in principle has typically run to about twelve months, subject to document completeness and case complexity. After approval in principle you complete the investment and finalise permanent residence. Confirm current processing times with the official authority.
The qualifying investment dominates the budget. On top of that sit a programme application fee, an immigration processing fee per applicant, and independent professional fees that are set separately. The application fee was set at S$20,000 with effect from May 2025.
