Obtaining Turkey Citizenship by Real Estate Investment: A Comprehensive Guide (2026 Update)
The Republic of Turkiye continues to offer one of the world's most robust and strategically positioned Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs in 2026. For high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) seeking global mobility, a second passport, and secure wealth allocation, Turkish real estate provides an unparalleled gateway. At Antalyamoydom Real Estate, we execute this complex legal transition with absolute institutional transparency, speed, and a strict Zero-Failure Guarantee.
🇹🇷 Statutory 2026 Citizenship Framework
1. Minimum Capital Threshold
You must acquire one or multiple properties with a combined official Title Deed (TAPU) valuation of at least $400,000 USD.
2. The 3-Year Holding Period
A mandatory legal annotation is placed on your Title Deed stating the asset cannot be sold or transferred for 3 years.
3. Financial Compliance (DAB)
The entire capital must be officially transferred via Turkish banks and liquidated to the Central Bank to obtain the mandatory Foreign Currency Purchase Certificate (DAB).
4. Seller Origin Restriction
The property cannot be purchased from another foreign national. The seller must be a Turkish Citizen or a registered Turkish corporate entity.

The Antalyamoydom Advantage: 7-Step Flawless Execution
Citizenship dossiers can be severely delayed or rejected due to minor bureaucratic discrepancies—especially value mismatches between the TAPU, Appraisal Report, and Bank Receipt. Our in-house legal team ensures all three figures match perfectly and exceed the $400k minimum. The process generally finalizes within 3 to 6 months:
- Asset Allocation: Sourcing properties with flawless legal titles and exact SPK valuation alignment.
- Fund Liquidation: Managing the DAB certificate issuance via the Central Bank.
- Appraisal Audit: Executing CMB/SPK licensed valuations before title transfer.
- Title Deed Registration: Securing the deed with the mandatory 3-year holding annotation.
- Conformity Certificate: Obtaining the official Ministry of Environment and Urbanization approval.
- Investor Residency: Securing immediate short-term VIP investor residency.
- Citizenship Finalization: Submission of the master dossier for the primary investor, spouse, and children under 18.
