Pursuant to Law No. 901, transactions regarding the acquisition and loss of Turkish citizenship are carried out in the country through the General Directorate of Population and Citizenship, which is affiliated to the Ministry of Interior, while it is carried out through foreign representations abroad.

A foreigner who wishes to acquire Turkish citizenship can acquire Turkish citizenship with the decision of the competent authority if he meets the conditions specified in this law. According to the relevant law, the foreigner who wants to acquire Turkish citizenship;

To be mature and able to distinguish according to their own national law or, if stateless, according to Turkish laws,
To reside in Turkey for five consecutive years, backwards from the date of application,
Confirming with his/her actions that he/she has decided to settle in Turkey,
Not have a disease that poses a danger to general health,
to have good morals,
Being able to speak Turkish enough,
To have an income or profession that will provide for himself and his dependents in Turkey,
It is necessary to fulfill the conditions such as not to be in a situation that will constitute an obstacle in terms of national security and public order.

The validity of the above-mentioned conditions also means something within the limits determined by the law and regulation. In particular, the issue of under which conditions an uninterrupted five-year residence can be used for citizenship is one of the issues that should be emphasized.

The existence of the conditions specified in the law and regulation does not mean that citizenship will be granted absolutely. The discretion of the competent authority at this point continues. However, it is of great importance at this point that both formal and material obligations are fully fulfilled in accordance with the law and regulation. For this, it is of great importance to contact someone who is an expert in this field. Even a small mistake can cause undesirable results.
