QUESTIONS
Questions
What happens to the property after three years?
Follow the land registry process to remove the relevant restriction before deciding whether to keep or sell the property. Sale value, taxes and transaction conditions depend on circumstances at the time. No appreciation, rent or buyback is guaranteed.

Does completing the investment guarantee citizenship?
No. Investment conformity, residence formalities and citizenship approval are distinct procedures. The Turkish authorities make the final decision under applicable law.
Sources: Invest in Türkiye · Citizenship
Must I wait three years before applying?
Three years is the investment holding commitment. Once a qualifying investment and the required confirmation are in place, residence and citizenship applications can proceed. Processing time depends on the case and official review.
