Question 1

How long does it take to get Turkish citizenship?

Accepted Answer

CIP Turkey has a tailor made VIP service for Turkish Citizenship applicants, which allows us to obtain Turkish Citizenship in around 2 months, compared to the standard prosedure that takes around 6 months.

Question 2

How many days out of the year would I be required to reside in Turkey?

Accepted Answer

You would not be required to stay in Turkey for a minimum amount of days throughout the year.

Question 3

Will I be required to learn Turkish before receiving my citizenship?

Accepted Answer

No. Unlike many other programs, there is no requirement to learn Turkish.

Question 4

Who would be eligible to receive Turkish citizenship under my application?

Accepted Answer

Aside from yourself, your spouse, and all children under 18 years of age would automatically qualify under your application.

Question 5

What are the tax implications for me?

Accepted Answer

Turkey has signed a double taxation treaty with most nations in the developed world. If you have already paid the relevant taxes on income earned outside of Turkey, then you are unlikely to be taxed again by the Turkish government, even if it was earned in a country that has not signed a double taxation treaty with Turkey. If you have more queries relating to the Turkish tax structure, then we advise you to speak to a Turkish tax specialist.

Question 6

Would I be required to declare my wealth to the Turkish authorities?

Accepted Answer

No. The Turkish tax authorities will not ask you any questions about your financial status, or existing assets.

Question 7

Where can I travel with a Turkish passport?

Accepted Answer

A Turkish passport would grant you visa free/ or on arrival access to 115 countries, including Japan, S. Korea, and the majority of S. American countries. Turkish citizens also benefit from easy visa access to the US, UK, EU, Canada, and Australia.

Question 8

Would I be allowed to hold onto my original citizenship if I become a Turkish citizen?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Turkey allows its citizens to have dual nationality.

Question 9

Would I be able to obtain financing in Turkey to purchase the property for my citizenship?

Accepted Answer

Yes. However, please be aware that you would not be eligible to qualify for Turkish citizenship until you have fully paid off your mortgage. If you can acquire financing from overseas to pay for your property, you would then be deemed as eligible for Turkish citizenship, so long as the property has been paid for in full.

Question 10

Will my Turkish citizenship expire at any time in the future?

Accepted Answer

No. Once you have held onto your investment for the minimum period of 3 years, you will become a Turkish citizen for life, as will your spouse and children.

Question 11

Aside from real estate investments, could you assist us with the other types of investments to qualify for Turkish citizenship?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can assist you with any investment on the list, from purchasing REIT shares, to opening a bank account, or even a company where you employ 50 workers, through our affiliate company – Apex Consultancy & Trading Group.
