Foreigners may acquire immovable property in Türkiye within the framework of statutory restrictions (such as military-zone limitations and country and area caps). Acquisition can also be a route to a residence permit and to exceptional citizenship. We handle the process end to end, together with its title-deed and status dimensions.

A work permit for foreign staff is obtained through an application filed with the Ministry of Labour by the employer company; certain criteria such as capital and employment are taken into account. We manage the process from start to finish and plan the permits of your managers and key personnel in line with your investment timeline.

The bilateral agreements on the reciprocal promotion and protection of investments that Türkiye has signed with numerous countries provide protections such as safeguards against expropriation, equal treatment, and recourse to international arbitration. We structure your investment so that it benefits optimally from these safeguards.

Depending on the region, sector and size of the investment, incentives such as customs and VAT exemptions, tax reductions, social-security (SGK) premium support, and interest-rate support are possible. We manage the investment incentive certificate process and structure the arrangement that will provide the greatest benefit to your project.

As a rule, the source code of software is protected by copyright (as a work); this protection arises automatically, without registration. A technical invention in which the software is applied may, under certain conditions, be patentable. We determine the most effective protection together, according to the nature of your product.

The YEKA (Renewable Energy Resource Areas) model is aimed at large-scale, publicly sourced projects allocated through competitive tender. Unlicensed generation, on the other hand, is suitable for smaller-scale projects based on self-consumption. Together we assess the model best suited to your investment objective.

Yes. Renewable energy projects can benefit from support such as purchase guarantee mechanisms, investment incentives, and connection priority. We assess the available support mechanisms according to your project's feasibility and manage the application processes.

Board members are liable to the company, the shareholders, and the creditors within the scope of their duty of care and loyalty. Personal liability may arise for public debts and for negligent transactions. We structure decision-making processes and documentation so as to minimise these risks.

In CMR and transport law, the time limits are short; for apparent damage you must notify the carrier of a reservation at the time of delivery, and for concealed damage within a short period. The limitation period for bringing an action is generally short as well. To avoid forfeiting your rights, it is critical to seek legal support as soon as you notice the damage.

Yes. For a foreign court judgment or arbitral award to be enforceable in Türkiye, it must first be rendered valid under Turkish law through a recognition or enforcement (tenfiz) action. We conduct this process and convert your judgment into a title that is enforceable in Türkiye.
