Residence Permit

Instead of acquiring citizenship through investment, you may prefer to obtain a residence permit through a lower investment. Foreigners who own immovable property in Turkey can obtain a short-term residence permit under Article 31-1-b of the Law on Foreigners and International Protection.

Foreign investors who make a real estate investment at least $200,000 can participate in the program. The property subject to investment must be residential and used for this purpose. Additionally, if family members have shared or joint ownership rights over the property, they can also apply for a residence permit under this provision. In the case of family members who do not have shared or joint ownership rights over the property, the property can only serve as a basis for assessing financial means. In this case, an application for residence cannot be made.
