Citizenship in Turkey
At Plus Investment, we help you obtain Turkish citizenship through the purchase of real estate, with full support every step of the way. For us, this is a comprehensive investment process, where everything matters: choosing the right property, meeting government requirements, protecting the buyer's interests, and ensuring confidence in the outcome.
What are the benefits of Turkish citizenship when purchasing real estate?
Purchasing real estate is one of the most popular ways to obtain Turkish citizenship. This investment program combines two advantages: you acquire a liquid asset in Turkey and simultaneously gain the right to apply for a second passport through a simplified procedure.
Benefits of obtaining Turkish citizenship
- Inclusion of spouse and minor children in the application.
- There is no need to prove knowledge of the Turkish language.
- There is no requirement to permanently reside in Turkey to participate in the program.
- The opportunity to use the property both for personal residence and as part of an investment portfolio.
- Freedom of life planning and increased international mobility.
Current program conditions for 2026
The Turkish citizenship program includes a key requirement: a foreign investor must purchase real estate worth at least $400,000 . The documents must indicate that the property is being purchased for passport purposes and also include a commitment not to sell the property for at least three years .
In practice, this means that for a successful transaction, it's not just the purchase price itself that matters, but also the legal integrity of the entire transaction. Simply choosing an expensive property isn't enough—it needs to truly meet all the requirements.
This is where the services of a professional concierge service are especially important.
