Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Turkish Citizenship process

No. A single title deed grants citizenship rights to only one main investor and their immediate family (first-degree relatives)
First, a property valued at a minimum of $400,000 is purchased. Once the title deed is secured, a conformity certificate and a short-term residence permit are obtained. Finally, the citizenship application is submitted to the General Directorate. The entire process typically concludes within 6 to 8 months, and passports can be collected in Turkey or at a Turkish consulate abroad.
Under normal circumstances, the entire process is finalized within a period of 6 to 8 months
Rejections are rare and usually stem from providing false information or posing a threat to national security. If an application is rejected unjustly, legal recourse is available. Working with a professional team minimizes these risks significantly.
No. You are free to purchase multiple properties. The only requirement is that their total declared value must exceed $400,000, and the applications for all properties must be submitted simultaneously.

The official value is calculated based on the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey's selling rate on the exact date of the application.
Approval is not automatic. The final decision depends on a security clearance verifying that the applicant does not pose a threat to national security.
The most critical aspect is the property valuation. Independent appraisers must verify that the property value is at least $400,000. A variance of up to 20% from the sales price is common, so it is crucial to select properties that strictly meet the valuation criteria.
