TürkiyeWhere possibilities meet.

Benefits

Citizenship, if approved, allows you to live and work in Türkiye and apply for a Turkish passport.

Eligibility

Foreign investors who meet the investment, security and citizenship checks. Acquisition restrictions must be checked for the property and applicant.

Requirements

Qualifying real estate requires at least USD 400,000 in the applicable declared transaction value and documented payment, with official valuation and verification and a three-year no-sale restriction. Other prescribed routes include eligible USD 500,000 financial investments, fixed capital or qualifying job creation, with their own certification and retention rules. Identity, lawful funds and security screening remain mandatory.

A rental-income investment is not the same as a home used for the property-residence category. Ownership does not automatically grant residence, employment permission or citizenship.

Benefits

Permission to live in your Turkish home while the residence conditions continue to be met, ownership alone does not confer citizenship or a work permit.

Eligibility

Applicants with an eligible residential property and a qualifying address. The acquisition date matters when assessing the applicable value rule.

Requirements

For a new qualifying acquisition, the home must meet the current USD 200,000 acquisition-value threshold and be used as the applicant’s residence. Provide the title, value and purchase evidence, insurance, address and immigration documents. Earlier acquisitions require a date-specific assessment.

Benefits

The general short-term permit can be issued for up to two years, with duration and renewal dependent on the accepted purpose and continuing conditions.

Eligibility

Applicants need a genuine commercial purpose, lawful entry and the appropriate supporting business or invitation documents. Registering or buying a company is not sufficient by itself.

Requirements

Provide passport, address, insurance and purpose-specific commercial evidence. Company records, invitations or counterpart documents must support the actual activity. Any employment or active work needs its own lawful basis.

Benefits

Eligible applications may receive residence for up to five years. The investment and family conditions are assessed separately from citizenship or employment permission.

Eligibility

The investor must fall within the prescribed qualifying investment scope and meet immigration conditions. This is not a universal residence offer for any purchase or company registration.

Requirements

Provide the relevant investment certification, identity, lawful-entry, address, insurance and family documents. Investment category, holding obligations and source of funds require individual verification.

Benefits

Initial permission normally lasts up to one year. Eligible extensions with the same employer can reach two years and then three years. The approved role and employer limit the permission.

Eligibility

The employer, role, remuneration and applicable capital and Turkish-employment criteria must be met. Owners and partners are assessed under their specific shareholding and activity conditions.

Requirements

Prepare the employment or corporate file, qualifications and applicable capital, shareholding and staffing evidence. Standard owner criteria and statutory exemptions differ, so company incorporation is not a guarantee of a work permit.

Benefits

Selected applicants can access the programme’s three-year work-permit route and facilitated family procedures. Associated services and incentives depend on their own qualifying conditions.

Eligibility

Applicants must qualify as technology talent or an innovative technology-based start-up under the programme’s assessment. It is not a general remote-worker visa.

Requirements

Prepare the professional or start-up evidence required by the relevant application track, with identity and supporting business or technical information. Selection and the final work-permit formalities are distinct steps.

This is not a purchased permanent-residence or citizenship product. The card’s work rights and accompanying family residence documentation must be distinguished.

Benefits

The card starts with a three-year transition period. Removal of the transition restriction requires a timely qualifying application and approval, rather than an automatic permanent outcome.

Eligibility

Qualification depends on the recognised professional, scientific, cultural, sporting, investment or economic contribution and the official evaluation criteria.

Requirements

Submit qualifications, professional achievements or investment and economic-contribution evidence with the prescribed application documents. Monitoring obligations apply during transition. Family residence documents are assessed separately.

Pakistan is not on the official eligible-nationality list reviewed on 8 October 2026. A certificate or foreign-income level does not override nationality or immigration requirements.

Benefits

The certificate supports the prescribed visa process for eligible remote workers. It is not itself a visa, residence permit or permission for local employment.

Eligibility

Applicants must be aged 21 to 55, hold a university degree and have an eligible nationality from the official list. Foreign remote work and the required income must be demonstrated.

Requirements

Provide foreign employment or client evidence and income of at least USD 3,000 monthly or USD 36,000 annually, with identity, qualification and other requested documents. Nationality eligibility must be checked before preparation.

Benefits

Family residence may be granted for up to three years and cannot extend beyond the sponsor’s permission. Work rights require a separate assessment.

Eligibility

Qualifying spouses, minor children and dependent children must meet the statutory relationship conditions. The sponsor must meet the applicable means, insurance, address and residence requirements.

Requirements

Provide civil-status and dependency evidence, identity documents, sponsor permission, income, health insurance and address records. Legalisation and translation requirements apply to foreign documents.

Benefits

Long-term status depends on approval and continuing statutory conditions. It does not automatically provide nationality or a general exemption from work-permit rules.

Eligibility

Normally eight years of qualifying continuous residence, sufficient stable resources, health cover, no social assistance during the preceding three years and the required public-order and security conditions.

Requirements

Provide the residence and travel record, financial and insurance documents and other requested evidence. Student-permit periods count at half rate. An absence exceeding one continuous year can lead to cancellation unless a statutory exception applies.
