Understanding Turkish Citizenship by Investment
Turkey’s Citizenship by Investment Program offers foreign investors an excellent opportunity to obtain Turkish citizenship by making a significant financial commitment to the country. Two primary routes are available under this program: property investment and bank deposit.
1) Property Purchase: By investing a minimum of 400,000 USD in Turkish real estate, applicants can become eligible for Turkish citizenship. The property purchased must be retained for at least three years to maintain citizenship status.
2) Bank Deposit: Alternatively, foreign investors can opt for a bank deposit of at least 500,000 USD in a Turkish bank account. This deposit must be maintained for a minimum of three years.
