A three-step order that gathers corporate obligations onto a single calendar.
01 · Inventory & Calendar
We map your company's resolution, registration, permit, filing and payroll obligations; we tie all dates to a single corporate-compliance calendar.
02 · Execution & Registration
We prepare general-assembly and board resolutions, carry out registry filings and permit applications, and keep ledgers and records complete.
03 · Monitoring & Reporting
We proactively track deadlines, give advance notice of upcoming obligations, and present regular, multilingual status reports to management.
Corporate order is the foundation of transaction security
When company resolutions, ledgers and registration processes are not managed correctly, they create risk at transaction closings, in audits and in disputes. We treat corporate secretarial services as a regular system that prevents these risks. From incorporation and registration to general assemblies, from accounting-payroll and tax compliance to operating permits, licences and work permits for foreign personnel, we manage your company's official obligations on a single, traceable calendar. For foreign-capital companies, all processes are reported in Turkish, German and English.

Yes. The pre-assessment and post-assessment settlement mechanisms can significantly reduce penalty and late-payment burdens; and where settlement is not reached or not chosen, the reduction-in-penalties provisions of the Tax Procedure Law (No. 213) or an action in the tax court remain open. These routes are alternatives to one another, and each runs on a short statutory clock: a missed deadline forfeits the right in…
With the documents complete, the application is prepared through MERSİS and registration at the trade registry usually follows within a few working days. Registration is the moment that matters: it is what gives the company legal personality under the Turkish Commercial Code (No. 6102).What actually governs the timetable is the chain around it — drafting the articles of association correctly, and, where there is a f…
Yes. As part of ongoing tax compliance we monitor changes in legislation and secondary regulation and flag the incentives, allowances and exemptions that apply to your company, together with an estimate of their impact. Tax in Türkiye is shaped by frequently amended instruments, including the Corporate Tax Law (Law 5520), the Income Tax Law (Law 193) and the VAT Law (Law 3065), alongside the investment-incentive reg…
Yes, for many lines of business a virtual office can serve as the registered address, and the address is entered in the trade registry under the Turkish Commercial Code (No. 6102). But the tax office checks, on inspection, whether the business is genuinely being carried on there — and for activities that need a licence, a permit or physical premises, and in some bank account-opening processes, a real office is expec…
Registration is where the obligations start, not where they stop. Tax office and SGK (social security) workplace registrations, certification of the statutory books required by the Turkish Commercial Code (No. 6102), the e-ledger and e-invoice applications, and setting up a KEP (registered electronic mail) address and electronic service all arrive at once. A company that processes personal data comes within the Pers…
The ordinary general assembly has to meet within three months of the end of each financial period, under Article 409 of the Turkish Commercial Code (No. 6102). Miss that window and several things follow at once: the management body’s own liability comes into play, and resolutions that depend on the assembly — approval of the financial statements, distribution of profit — simply cannot be taken. In practice bank and…
There are two routes: appointing a proxy to attend, or attending through the Electronic General Assembly System (EGKS) under Article 1527 of the Turkish Commercial Code (No. 6102). For a joint-stock company, electronic attendance requires both a provision in the articles of association and the system actually being set up.Where there are foreign shareholders, three things need planning from the outset: the form of t…
