What is Turkish citizenship through property purchase?

Turkish citizenship through real estate is a legal route under “exceptional citizenship,” allowing a foreign investor to apply for citizenship by purchasing one or more properties that meet the official eligibility requirements, including meeting the minimum value threshold and applying the required annotation such as a 3-year no-sale commitment on the title deed, in line with the official process.

Quick overview of the process

1. Define your goal and budget (citizenship only or citizenship + investment return).
2. Select a citizenship-eligible property that meets value and procedural requirements.
3. Complete the purchase and title deed transfer and register the required annotations.
4. Prepare and submit the citizenship file and follow up until the process is completed.
