Legal Information

The ownership is anchored in article 35 of the Turkish Constitution. This article stipulates that anyone is entitled to ownership and that these rights can only be restricted by other legal stipulations. The restrictions may consist, for instance, of zoning schemes, restrictions applicable to foreigners and matters such as having the right of way.

The ownership regulations are elaborated in the Turkish Civil Code. This describes how ownership is acquired. For the purchase of real estate by a foreign person, especially the entry in the land register is important.

In Turkey there are regional directorates of the land register in 15 places, which are subdivided in provincial or district offices. In principle, the land register is accessible to everyone.

In Turkey the ownership of real estate is obtained by entry in the land register (article 633 Turkish Civil Code) and the simultaneous delivery of the real estate. These two steps must be taken in the way described in the Turkish Civil Code; moreover, all formalities must be fulfilled. Any non-observance of the formalities will result in failure to acquire the real estate, which in turn causes great disappointment to both the buyer and the seller.

Acquiring real estate in Turkey involves many regulations. Not only must formal regulations be taken into account, but foreign persons must also heed the various legal exceptions to acquire real estate.

As more and more foreigners wish to have a pied-à-terre in Turkey and more and more firms set up subsidiaries in Turkey, we recommend carrying out a thorough investigation beforehand.

The zoning scheme, the antecedents of the selling party and the legal restrictions imposed by the Turkish legislation are aspects that should be approached objectively and professionally.

ABC Team may offer valuable assistance in this investigation. Indeed, many of our clients’ problems could have been prevented by having an objective and thorough investigation carried out.

With over 10 years of experience in Turkey we have become experts on this particular issue. All of our consultants have excellent oral and written command of the Turkish language, thus minimising any communication problems and enabling us to explain the contents of official Turkish documents to you.
