Investment
We manage the legal work of Turkish citizenship by investment — from eligibility assessment and investment structure to application filing and representation before the authorities until the government reaches its decision.
We provide comprehensive legal services for every stage of property ownership in Turkey — from initial due diligence and purchase through to management and tax compliance. Every transaction is fully verified before any commitment is made.
We handle the legal work of establishing a business entity in Turkey — from selecting the appropriate structure and drafting constitutional documents to preparing and filing the registration and the applications for required operating permits.
We represent individuals, families, and companies in Turkish immigration matters — preparing every document and filing, and attending every government appointment on your behalf.
We represent international companies and entrepreneurs on corporate matters in Turkey — covering M&A transactions, share transfers, general assembly proceedings, board resolutions, and ongoing AML compliance obligations.
Whether property, citizenship, or company —
your Turkish legal process starts here.
Whether you are acquiring property, applying for citizenship, or establishing a legal entity — NLI Global handles the legal work on your behalf, from initial filing through to the authorities' final decision.
Every legal obligation.
Managed on your behalf.
Turkish citizenship and real estate law involve overlapping statutory requirements. Each obligation below is one we handle in full — so nothing falls through the jurisdictional gaps.
We conduct a full land registry search on every property — confirming ownership chain, encumbrances, mortgage status, and citizenship eligibility — before any purchase agreement is executed.
We act on your behalf throughout the entire procedure. You are not required to be present at government offices, notaries, or land registry appointments. We represent you at every filing.
Our Istanbul-based legal team has managed over 280 citizenship applications across 47 nationalities. We know the statutory requirements, the applicable thresholds, and where applications fail.
Each citizenship route carries distinct legal obligations — minimum holding periods, valuation requirements, and restricted transaction structures. We assess your eligibility and structure your investment accordingly.
Turkish citizenship applications are governed by strict procedural timelines. We track every statutory deadline, prepare documentation in advance, and coordinate all government appointments on your behalf.
A property acquisition for citizenship purposes engages multiple legal disciplines simultaneously. We handle title deed transfer, residence permit filings, and tax registration filings as a single coordinated legal engagement.
From the clients
we represent.
We wanted Turkish citizenship for our family. We invested in two apartments to reach the investment limit. The NLI team handled the valuation reports and the title deeds so the buying process was smooth. Mr. Furkan started the citizenship process right after we bought them.
I was worried about sending a lot of money to Turkey for the citizenship program. Mr. Furkan explained the secure payment and escrow system process, and he helped me open a bank account. He made sure the property had no debts before I paid. Thank you!
Applying for citizenship for four people seemed like a lot of work. But the NLI team did everything for us. They did the legal checks on the property, organized the contracts, and made sure the payment was handled securely. They also made sure the title deed was transferred to our name. From buying the property to applying for citizenship, everything was handled with no hassle. We are just waiting for our passports now.
Buying a house in Istanbul while living in Singapore is not easy. But the NLI legal team made it possible. They checked the property documents, prepared the contract, opened a Turkish bank account, and did the transfer. By the time we arrived in Istanbul, everything was ready. We just signed and received the title deed.
This was my first time buying a property in Turkey, and I was worried about signing legal papers. Mr. Furkan checked every document and explained them to me in English. All the contracts were prepared in both English and Turkish, and the changes we asked for were added without any problems.
Mr. Furkan helped me sell my apartment in Istanbul. Before we started, he explained everything clearly. He told me about the legal steps, the taxes, and exactly when I would get paid. There were no surprises. I always knew what was happening.
I live in Pakistan but have two apartments in Istanbul. NLI manages both of them. They collect the rent, pay the taxes, and talk to the tenants. I just get my money every month and a clear report. I don't have to do anything at all.
I thought my will from my home country would cover my property in Turkey. Mr. Furkan explained to me that it does not work that way. He helped me make a Turkish will and a power of attorney. His experience made everything much easier.
