Citizenship, Investment & International Business

Türkiye Citizenship. Property, Capital and Family in One Structured Route.

GENESIS CAPITAL provides a confidential entry point for applicants considering Turkish citizenship through qualifying real estate or approved financial investment.

Qualifying routes

Choose the investment structure that fits the applicant.

Turkish citizenship may be available through several qualifying investment routes. The appropriate structure depends on the applicant’s capital objectives, preferred holding profile, family requirements, banking access and compliance position.

Citizenship remains subject to official eligibility, residence-permit procedures, security and public-order checks and the decision of the competent Turkish authorities.

01

Real estate — USD 400,000

Qualifying residential or commercial property, official valuation, documented payment and a three-year title-deed restriction. Not every property offered to a foreign buyer is eligible.

02

Bank deposit — USD 500,000

A qualifying deposit with a bank operating in Türkiye, maintained under the applicable three-year blocking requirement and confirmed through the regulated route.

03

Government bonds

USD 500,000 or equivalent invested in eligible Turkish government debt instruments and held for the required three-year period.

04

Investment funds

USD 500,000 or equivalent in qualifying real estate investment fund or venture capital investment fund units, subject to the statutory holding period.

05

Pension or fixed capital

Approved private-pension contribution or qualifying fixed-capital investment from USD 500,000, confirmed by the competent authority.

06

Employment route

Creation of at least 50 qualifying jobs, subject to confirmation by the competent Turkish authority and continuing compliance.

Family application

One qualifying investment can support a coordinated family file.

The main applicant, spouse and eligible minor or dependent children may generally apply within the same qualifying investment structure when the family application is prepared together.

The minimum investment threshold does not normally increase for an included spouse and eligible children. Government, legal, translation, certification, banking and non-standard document costs may nevertheless apply separately.

Family coordination

  • Main applicant profile and eligibility review.
  • Spouse and eligible child document mapping.
  • Marriage, birth and civil-status documentation.
  • Certified translations, notarisation and legalisation.
  • Residence-permit and citizenship-file coordination.

Important qualification

  • Family inclusion is not automatic and remains subject to official approval.
  • Dependent adult children require case-specific eligibility review.
  • Military-service, tax-residence and original-nationality considerations are assessed separately where relevant.
  • Türkiye permits multiple citizenship, but the applicant’s existing country rules must also be checked.
Property sourcing

Not every property qualifies. Selection begins with eligibility.

Through its Türkiye-based coordination presence, GENESIS CAPITAL can identify suitable developer inventory, completed properties and selected secondary-market opportunities aligned with the applicant’s location, budget, lifestyle and investment objectives.

Before the applicant commits capital, we coordinate a preliminary citizenship-eligibility and transaction review. Final conformity must be confirmed through the applicable Land Registry process and duly authorised Turkish professionals.

01

Property selection

Residential and qualifying commercial opportunities compared by price, location, valuation, intended use, rental profile and future liquidity.

02

Seller and title history

Review of the registered owner, seller status, prior foreign ownership, related-party issues and whether the property has previously supported a citizenship application.

03

Title due diligence

Coordination of title-deed, mortgage, lien, encumbrance, zoning, construction, occupancy and earthquake-insurance checks.

04

Valuation control

Authorised valuation coordination and comparison of the appraisal value, declared purchase price and bank-confirmed payment evidence.

05

Transaction evidence

Foreign-exchange documentation, bank receipts, sale documentation, title-transfer appointment and the required three-year annotation.

06

Post-acquisition support

Property handover, insurance, utility, property-management and rental-management coordination where included in the agreed engagement.

Why Türkiye

Citizenship connected to a substantial economic platform.

Türkiye combines a large domestic market, established banking and manufacturing sectors, regional connectivity and an internationally mobile business community.

Travel privileges depend on each destination’s current rules. Turkish citizenship does not automatically provide Schengen, US or UK visa-free access.

01

Live, work and build

Rights to reside, work, study, own property and establish a business, subject to applicable Turkish law.

02

Strategic location

Direct connectivity between Europe, the GCC, Central Asia, the CIS, the Mediterranean and North Africa.

03

Business infrastructure

Established banking, logistics, manufacturing, technology, export and professional-services ecosystems.

04

Healthcare and education

Broad public healthcare coverage, a developed private medical sector and a wide range of educational institutions.

05

Family mobility

A long-term residence and citizenship platform for family life, education, property ownership and succession planning.

06

International trade access

EU Customs Union participation and a broad network of trade agreements supporting regional commercial operations.

2026 business framework

A new 20-year horizon for qualifying international business and capital.

Qualified Service Centers
95% / 100%

Law No. 7582 introduced a 95% corporate tax-base deduction for qualifying foreign-sourced profits of eligible Qualified Service Centers, increasing to 100% for qualifying operations within the Istanbul Financial Center and designated industrial zones. The regime may apply for up to 20 accounting periods, subject to the statutory conditions.

Additional opportunities

Qualifying international structures may also assess the 20-year foreign-source income exemption for eligible relocating individuals, transit-trade and overseas-intermediation deductions, Istanbul Financial Center incentives and the time-limited overseas asset-repatriation framework.

Citizenship or company incorporation alone does not activate these benefits. Prior tax residence, activity, economic substance, revenue source, group geography and continuing compliance require separate professional review.

Banking context

Capital placement requires both qualification and risk control.

During parts of 2025, exceptionally high Turkish-lira deposit rates outpaced TRY depreciation and produced positive USD-equivalent outcomes for some deposit strategies. This historical context does not constitute a forecast or an offer of a specific banking product.

Actual results depend on bank-specific rates, placement date, maturity, rollover terms, withholding tax, fees and entry and exit exchange rates. GENESIS CAPITAL does not guarantee investment return, principal protection, interest rate or currency performance.

Financial-route coordination

  • Bank-onboarding and KYC document preparation.
  • Source-of-funds and source-of-wealth readiness.
  • Comparison of qualifying routes through authorised institutions.
  • Currency, maturity, liquidity and holding-period review.
  • Transaction evidence and official confirmation coordination.

Risk qualifications

  • No banking or investment product is guaranteed by GENESIS CAPITAL.
  • FX movement can materially change USD-equivalent performance.
  • Tax treatment depends on applicant and product circumstances.
  • Institution acceptance remains subject to KYC, AML and sanctions review.
  • Investment advice and execution require the applicable authorised provider.
