Turkey Citizenship
by Investment

Since 2017, Turkey has offered a citizenship-by-investment (CBI) program through real estate, with a minimum property investment of $400,000. Investors can choose from various property types—beachfront, city apartments, villas, and more—in key cities like Istanbul (economic hub), Antalya (tourism capital), Bodrum (Turkish Riviera), Alanya (affordable beachfront living), and Ankara (national capital).

Unlike donation-based programs, Turkey’s CBI requires a three-year property hold, after which investors can sell the property at a profit and earn rental income in the meantime. The process is straightforward, with no language or residency requirements, and is mostly completed online, with final ID and passport collection at the nearest Turkish consulate.

Turkey Citizenship by Investment Overview

With a minimum investment in property, applicants can obtain Turkish citizenship within months, gaining the right to live, work, and study in a country known for its rich cultural heritage, strategic location, and vibrant economy.
