Turkey citizenship by investment: cost and process

Per the Investment Office of the Presidency of Türkiye: a property worth at least US$400,000 with a three-year no-sale annotation; a US$500,000 bank deposit held for three years; US$500,000 in government bonds, real-estate investment fund or venture capital fund shares held for three years; a US$500,000 fixed-capital investment; or creating jobs for at least 50 people.

1. Choose a qualifying property and check its legal status.
2. Obtain a valuation report from a licensed appraisal firm confirming at least US$400,000.
3. Transfer the funds through a bank in Türkiye and obtain the currency-exchange certificate.
4. Transfer the title deed with the three-year no-sale annotation.
5. Obtain the certificate of eligibility, then the residence permit.
6. Submit the citizenship file, followed by security checks and the presidential decision.

They usually include title-deed transfer tax, valuation, translation and notary fees, legal fees and residence permits. They vary with the property and the size of the family, so we prepare a written estimate before any commitment.

In 2026 the Turkish authorities announced reviews and cancellations of files based on irregular deals or valuations. The lesson is clear: the price, the valuation and the bank transfer must match and be fully documented. We only work with properties and files that can withstand scrutiny.

Your spouse and children under 18. Every family is different, so we review your situation before starting.

Yes, Türkiye allows dual citizenship, but you should also check the law of your home country.
