Excellent description!!! I purchased a property and we applied on this basis for the residence but we received TRP based on visit
I need to figure out. Are they giving Short term residence (E) to those who owns property? Becoz we had buy property and rec'd the above TRC
@@hamidnadeem3937 no bro E or turstic type of resident permit is for those who rent the property and apply for resident permit ,but if you bought the property then you should apply for resident permit and the reason for stay in the last step of registration you should select property owner in Turkey or taşınmaz mülk sahibi in turkish and after renewing this permit for 5 years and not fulfilling more than 1 year in 5 year you can apply for citizenship. In this video he said not more than 6 months but it was in the past right now it is 1 year in 5 years, hope you got the point.
Such a great video!! Well done!! I have a question though. Someone who had a work permit for 2 years and then switched to 1 year tourist residence and then worked for 3 years work permit, during this period has been outside of turkey just 1month , can they still be qualified for the citizenship or the 5 years should be in a row??? Your answer is extremely appreciated , thanks in advance!
Could be considered, the officers will take into account the gap year based on their judgement (IMO it shouldn't be a major issue)
Hi there. What a fantastic job you are doing explaining everything so well in English. My question is based on watching this video and your other one about building your own villa for less money. If you build your own villa cost effectively for 180k usd... but as soon as it is completed it is valued at 280k usd at current market price... have you satisfied the criteria for citizenship as the villa is worth over 250k usd or ... it falls below because you actually built it for 180k usd?
Thanks for your comment appreciate the feedback :)
Actually this is a good question and the regulation for this has recently been updated about a year ago. The land value along with the appraised value of the home build from a govt approved appraisal firm will qualify you for the $250,000 citizenship. I can share you the official documents via email moaz@thinkturkey.co or WhatsApp +90 536 956 5130
@@ThinkTurkey Thank you. I will send my email for the official documents.
As salaamu alaikum. Another great video brother, very informative! Just to clarify, if I were to go the 5 year route, do I have to do the language test and if so, how hard is that?
And second, instead of buying a property, are the rules the same if I built a property? Jazakh Allah for your help!
Walaikumassalam, language test is easy esp if you've lived here that long. Build and live 5 years yes same.
@@ThinkTurkey thanks for clarifying brother!
If u gonna bring your islamic culture then dont come to Turkey. Enough.
Thanks alot
You're welcome!
Great insight thanks for this info!
Nice brother
very good
Thank you! Cheers!
Can you please make a video about buying a car, insurance, registration, fuel costs, and anything else?
This is a good idea, yes sure - I will work on this idea.
Thanks again for being so informative Mr.Haque. So I can then get a three-month tourist Visa, purchase my property for 250K or above, and wait for my citizenship. And as three months may not be enough to do all this will the Turkish Government extent my visa for another three months for a total of 6 months to give me enough time to do all this? And will your staff be able to file all paperwork for my wife and I and how much is the cost for us? Thank you again.
You should contact a lawyer in turkey for the process, make sure to contact a lawyer before buying properties! :)
Merhaba Muaz,, excellent explaination and presentation. You can have a successful career as TV Presenter or Anchor or a Show host 👍,,, keep it up with the excellent work. Waiting for your nxt vids
Thank you for this inspiring comment 😊 I am day dreaming of TV Anchor position 😄💯👍
Thanks for those information. More things, as you said, the agency or lawyer who has a knowledge for immigrant process, how they charge for the service?
Varies but anywhere between $2000-5000 on average. They are people who do it for much lower like $1000 or much higher like $8000. These are on extreme ends of both. Average is $2k-5k and main thing is you find someone competent who can get everything sorted correctly.
Straight facts, thumbs up! Question - For the $250k property investment, must a foreigner purchase 100% in cash or there are local banks willing to loan for a specific amount? Thanks!
Has to be cash $250k

Hi there, great video/s.
I’m looking to do something once I retire.
I’m seriously thinking about buying a property to live in Turkey (2 bed apartment). Once I settle in, learn the language, and have an opportunity to look around, I want to buy a second property which is bigger (3 bed). I then want to short term holiday let out the first property once I move into the larger property. The idea is to earn money from property 1 whilst I live in property 2.
Can this be done?
Yes ofcourse. There is a huge increasing demand in Istanbul and Antalya for short term rentals, long term rentals have also gone up but returns are more average for that. A 1 bed or 2 bed apartment will be ideal for short term rentals.
Thank you for your prompt reply! Very appreciated. I may seek advice nearer the time, but looking to do this in the next 2/3 years. Thanks again.
@@davidwest1036 no worries feel free to reach out anytime - moaz@thinkturkey.co
Thank you for your great sharing, I'm already investment in Istanbun, but still waiting for the gorverment doing passport it's quite take long time as I Expexted, last month I do Evisa to Turkish but they not allowed to go through transit in Thailand, I would like to ask if you know How long they going to take to do passport for us? And why we are the invoestor but not allow us to go through at airport? Please share if you know about it! Thank you very much!🙏🙏
Hmm you should check with your lawyer who filed the application - sorry since I didn't handle your file I cannot say anything here
Good morning! Could you please advise which city is the best to buy an apartment to live with family and kids, Istanbul or Antalya? What about job opportunities for foreigners, is it easier to find a job in Istanbul or Antalya considering I have a business and tourism degree and worked in hotels in Middle East?
Good morning Alex! I would recommend Antalya if you prefer smaller cities and less crowd. Especially with your tourism business background there are a lot of opportunities there. What kind of business are you in?
Thank for good information , i want to know about fee of lawfirm and goverment fee
Government fee for passport application is around $400 incl. fee for the 10 year passport and ID card. Law firm fees vary a lot depending on the law firm/lawyer you use. If you don't have a lawyer/firm in mind, we have a network of trusted lawyers that we can recommend, please get in touch with me at moaz@thinkturkey.co.
@@ThinkTurkey Thank you
Hey! According to you, if I own a property in Turkey and live there for 5 years I'll get citizenship. Right?
Does the $250,000 property investment need to be made at once? Meaning as long as the law doesn’t change can I purchase a property for $150,000 this year and another property for $100,000 next year and apply after I have surpassed a total of $250,000 across multiple years?
Yes you can do this!
3:20 can you explain the procedure in a detailed video please ^-^
You mean multiple properties? Just get in touch for more info wa.me/+905369565130

Hi. I am very interested in buying a house in Turkey and staying for my retirement there. One question though... What about if I change my mind and decide to sell the house. Will I be able to transfer the money of the sale out of Turkey?
Hi there, good question. In some countries there are issues of transferring money out of the country. Here in Turkey lots of foreigners have bought and sold homes with no issues of transferring money out of the country. You can easily transfer the money from your Turkish USD account for e.g. to your home country's USD account via wire transfer without any issues.
@@ThinkTurkey দ
Perfect information... thats exactly the lawyer told us but charged a large amount... lol...
Haha, there you go :)
So you can get a permanent residency visa by buying a property for any amount and then you can get a permanent residency by buying a property at $250k USD. 2 different visas? With or without investment - yet both regard investing. So I could buy a property for $50k usd and live in Turkey for 5 years with less than 6 months of holiday I can get citizenship assuming you pass the citizenship test & Turkish language test. This correct?
Yes, that is correct
Thanks for asking this- that part is confusing!
Is there a minimum amount to be paid for buying a property in order to get the permanent residency visa? (I.e 20k usd etc)
very informative video mate! 👍🏻
My grandfather was born in Turkey, can my dad and I acquire Turkish citizenship by descent?
Sure, thanks a lot! You can get it, however they will ask for proof in terms of your family background, lineage and so on. I know of someone who went through this process, and it did take some time - about a year or so.
@@ThinkTurkey we will try to work these details out. Thank you for your reply mate ✌🏻
In regards to having a job. The market there apparently sucks, especially for foreigners, so I was thinking about getting a remote job. Would that count to get a residency permit?
Remote job is a great idea! You can apply for touristic residence permit via renting an apartment, getting health insurance and so on.
Hi, love your videos, what are the citizenship laws regarding if I were to marry a Turkish Citizen please.

If i buy apartment for $35000 USD
And live for 5 years can i get citizenship??
Good question, yes you become ELIGIBLE for citizenship after 5 years.
What if i invest mean buy the property of 250K USD, and after getting the citizenship which around 6 months, can i rent out the same property or its will only be allowed to rent it out after 3 years. If your answer is yes then how much approx. a monthly rent i could get from that property. Thanks
You can rent it out from day 1, don't have to reside there even. You will still get your Turkish passport without living in Turkiye as long you have invested $250K.
In terms of rent, it varies alot depending on the size of property.
Let's take an example of 3 bedroom apartment in Basaksehir will be around 2500TL to 5000TL on average.
If you buy a 4 bedroom villa in Antalya, you can get $12,000 per year in rental income.
@@ThinkTurkey how much are villas in Antalya and are there International schools, English medium?
What about a someone on a student's residence permit buying a property worth 250k? Does it make them eligible for citizenship after a 5year stay?
Hi Brother
If one chooses depositing 500000 USD route for citizenship,At the end of the three years in what currency will hecollect his money back,In Lira or USD ?
Collected back also in USD, it will be held in a USD account
Hi, thank you for this informative video.
I am a mother of an adult and married daughter. I'm living with them and my daughter is keen to purchase a property in Turkey while working in another country. The plan for me is to live in this property till they join me at some stage. My questions is, am I considered immediate family for citizenship purposes? Thanks, again.
You will not be considered for citizenship if she buys it in her name because she is above 18 years of age. Either you or her can get citizenship depending on whose name it goes under.
The other option is to get the property joint under both your names and both of you can get a residence permit (NOT citizenship). This allows you to live there for as long as you like, you can keep renewing your residence permit every 2 years.
@@ThinkTurkey thank you, you saved me asking another question in this regard😊
Now, there are two more questions if that's OK.
1. I'm aware that Istanbul is on the earthquake zone. What is s the building insurance like in this case? Especially for an appartment where there's no land.
2. Would you recommend Eskisehir city? Guess it is not a tourist attraction, but, it's such a quiet beautiful place in Turkey. Do you think the market value could be strong there?
Thanks again 🙏
@@heyamkareem6109 anytime!
1. earthquake insurance is called DASK sigortasi in Turkey. It is very nominal around 250TL per year for a 100m2 apartment for e.g. in Istanbul.
2. Eskisehir is a nice student town, built around the university there. I wouldn't advise it as a prime investment spot. If you are buying something to live there, it's fine but you wouldn't see any substantial growth there in your investment when compared to Istanbul, Antalya and other major cities.
@@ThinkTurkey thank you. Your responses are straight to the point. Thank you
I am interesting to buy house or apartment

So, if I have a residence permit and I buy a property of any amount doing a remote job for 5 years, it should fulfil the conditions to get citizenship, right?
That's right!
@@ThinkTurkey Thanks, man. Will the dependents(suppose wife and children of below 18) get the citizenship as well with me if I fulfill the above conditions?
@@mukitchowdhury3713 yes that's also right (as long as they also fulfilled the 5 year condition with you).

What is family residance ? Can i get it by renting a property and living there for 5 years
If you live there by renting, means you will already have a residence permit. You cannot qualify for citizenship this way, if that is what you mean. You have to buy property, then live for 5 years to qualify for citizenship.
Can you tell me if a buy a land can I apply for resident permit on it? Or what if I buy a land and build a house to live?
Yes you can do this. Please get in touch with me to learn more wa.me/+905369565130
Great video. I have one comment, the government should reconsider the children who are over 18 and some who are married. Otherwise, huge opportunity the gov is missing.
Yes, but unfortunately that is the case with most CBI programs around the world. Some in Caribbean allow kids under 30 yrs, but most CBI programs only accept kids below 18. Above 18 kids can still get citizenship by other means, for e.g. working in the country and living there for 5 years.
How long does it take for the people who have bought property under 250$ k to take their passport?
Live there for 5 years then you can apply :)
Good evening Moaz.. I am planning to visit Turkey next month to check some investment oppertunities. Will need some advice. Kindly let me know, how to contact you as I need some sincere advice.
As you said 5 years stay is required for nationality eligibility, what if a child who spends 5 year with the family but in 4th year of stay he is 18, will he be eligible for nationality at the age of 19? Will his years of stay be counted?
Congrats on planning your trip to Turkey. Sure feel free to email me at moaz@thinkturkey.co.
With regards to child question, yes the 4 years he stayed as a child will count towards 5 year period :)
I'm on disability and I can continue receiving my benefits even if I move to Turkey. I get about $1200 (about 18,500 lira) per month. If I got a part time job would I be able to get citizenship?
If they got you a work permit and you lived here for 5 years yes you would become eligible to apply at that point for citizenship
Assalamualaikum brother
i have a question how about deposit bank $500 for three years? do we have to live there wait for 3 years?
Nope that's the advantage of utilizing those investment pathways - you don't have to be living in Turkey. And you'll get your citizenship within 3-6 months. They will put a hold on your bank account for 3 years, after that time period has passed you can remove your funds.
Do we have to take a language test during application after 5 years of stay while on a work permit are over?
Also will my chances increase if i completed the 5 year period and invested in properties of said amount? And Will my employer help me in my citizenship application process?
JazakAllah Hu khair for answering ❤
@@Zaif16997 employer won't help for sure. You can apply yourself and get a lawyer to assist with application. You will need to demonstrate ability in Turkish language. This won't be hard after 5 years of living there :)
Hiii you said your wife and children below 18 will get citizenship automatically and what about my old mom and dad , do they get the citizenship as well since they are my mom and dad ??
Yok sülalen alıyor :) olacak iş mi senin dediğin tabi sadece eşin ve çocukların alır
Only residential property or can we buy residential + cafe commercial property as well.
Any type of property qualifies, even land and commercial property. That is what makes Turkey's CBI program so valuable!

Hello sir,
How are you? I found your email from a RUclips video of yours. I hope you don’t mind me mailing.
I mailed today because I had some confusion regarding the citizenship of turkey.
I want to send my family to turkey for better education. Is it possible to get Turkish citizenship if I admit my children to a Turkish school?
Can you help me regarding this matter. I am willing to pay an amount for your consultancy.
Thank you.
Hello thanks for your comment. I'm confused about the question. Get citizenship by sending kids to Turkish school? If that was your question and I understood it correctly, then answer is definitely NO you cannot get citizenship by sending your kids to a Turkish school in Turkey.
To get citizenship you have to either:
1. Buy/build property worth $250,000 USD
OR
2. Buy property of any value and live in Turkey for over 5 years
If your Are From Another Country But If U want stay And live in Turkey can we get The citizenship
1. buy property of any value
2. live for 5 years
3. apply for citizenship
OR
1. buy 250k USD property and get citizenship in 6 months
if your kids born after acquiring citizenship do they get it too
Yes as a Turkish citizen, all your kids born after you get your passport wil automatically be Turkish citizens also. Good question!
Question kia 18 age se above log akele rah saktey hey turkey me lifetime ke lie
sure why not, above 18 can stay as long as they can afford to support themselves
What if kids are 18+ isn't there any way for them to get Turkish citizenship without spending another 250k.
Well, they can live there for +5 years and get citizenship that way also.
What if marry someone from turkey, in turkey? Can you get citizenship through marriage?
Yes
What if the kids are over 18 can the dad give residency’s
For residence permit regardless of age need to submit individual applications for everyone.
Hi brother. I have a plane to move turkey with business visa.

Hii sir I'm from Pakistan I want Turkey nationality I'm sports man Mean SQUASH PLYR and my age 16 year and I want play for Turkey so can I get Turkish citizenship?
Squash player
Getting citizenship for a sports player is not that common, so you will have to consult with the Ministries here in Turkey and before that prove yourself to Turkey that you are a valuable player.
Aoa, plz let me know if I buy $10000 property can I and my family eligible for residence permit in turkey it's is possible .and my son age is 18 years he is also eligible? Can you help me on this?
Ws, yes you can apply for residence permit with property of any value under your name and son's name.
Do the banks ask where did you get the money for the $500K deposit citizenship program?
Yes, definitely they will ask for your financial records and questions related to your income to ensure the funds were legally attained. It's all part of the standard procedure.
That’s sus 👀
age please describe also any age over 60 age also for Citizenship?
there is no age limit on this :)
Why do you quote american dollars? Thanks
The $250,000 citizenship requirements is not quoted by me, the government of Turkey has quoted this amount themselves in USD.
Hey man, I'm 17 years old from Bangladesh. I have Money, can I Buy Property in Turkey?
Ofcourse you can
I saw your video on purchasing land and building. If i did that would I be able to make it count towards my citizenship (the 280k)
It is possible however a bit hectic. Better to buy a villa already built or from a builder for that price. Or if the land itself is over $250k then you're in the clear.
is it still 250k lira for real estate
Nope gone up to $400k now but still can get residence permit for min $70k (realistically $100k+)
Brother, What about the language?
I didn’t understand it I am sorry!
For language - yes in Turkey they speak their own language mostly. So the only way is to learn the basics at least and the rest you will pick it up as you live there.
Please can I get citizenship by marrying a Turkish woman?
Yes you can, there is a process which takes 2-3 years for applying and approvals.
Can we rent our property, 250k plan,
Can you explain further pls

Advantages of Turkish Passport- Visa Free access to UK etc is not correct. If travelling from Turkey to UK, US etc YOU WILL need a Visa. Please fact check your work my friend as many will arrive at the airport without one :). Thanks for your videos.
Yes you're right, what I said might be misinterpreted even though I said privileged access, not visa free access.
So to clarify, visa is required for US, UK, Schengen countries.
