The Turkish Residency by Investment program, also known as the Golden Visa, was launched in January 2017 to attract foreign capital and stimulate growth in the country’s real estate sector. To qualify, an investment of at least USD 200,000 in real estate is required. Residency status is also extended to the applicant’s spouse and children under 18. The residency permit is issued for 5 years, and after 3 years, investors may apply for permanent residency or Turkish citizenship.
The program does not require applicants to live in Turkey. Investors can obtain Turkish citizenship three years after making their investment while maintaining their usual lifestyle abroad.
The Turkish Residency by Investment program allows the inclusion of a spouse and children under 18. All family members receive equal residency rights and the opportunity to apply for citizenship later.
The Turkish real estate market demonstrates stable annual growth. Investors can rent out their property to generate additional income.
Turkey serves as a bridge between continents, offering unique opportunities for business and trade. Residency here provides access to the markets of Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
After obtaining Turkish citizenship, investors can apply for the U.S. E-2 visa, which allows them to live and conduct business in the United States. This is especially valuable for citizens of countries without an existing E-2 treaty with the U.S.
Living in Turkey offers access to modern healthcare, quality education, and a comfortable environment with well-developed infrastructure, making the country highly attractive for investors and their families.
