FAQ: Starting a Business in Turkey

Can I open a company in Turkey without being physically present?

Yes. By issuing a specific Power of Attorney (PoA) to us from your local Turkish Consulate or a notary with an apostille, we can handle 90% of the incorporation process on your behalf. You may only need to visit briefly for the final signature or bank account opening.

What is the minimum capital requirement?

For a Limited Liability Company (Limited Şirket), the minimum capital is currently 50.000 TL (2025 regulations). However, depositing this amount varies based on the company type. For LLCs, it can be paid within 24 months after registration.

Do I need a Turkish partner?

No. Turkish law allows foreign nationals to own 100% of a company. You do not need a local partner or director to establish a business.
