RESIDENCE PERMIT UPDATES IN TURKEY. MARCH 2025

New changes to obtaining a residence permit have come into force in Turkey, opening up additional opportunities for foreign citizens, especially for families with children and investors.

Main innovations:

• Children whose parents have a residence permit in Turkey can now extend it not until 18, but until 25 years of age. This change is especially important for young people who want to continue their education, start a career or simply live in Turkey with their family.
• Children of investors who have received Turkish citizenship also have the right to obtain a residence permit until the age of 25. This makes Turkey even more attractive for investors who want to ensure the long-term future of their children.
• Parents of individuals who have received Turkish citizenship through investment can obtain a residence permit for 2 years with the possibility of subsequent extension. This is an important step for strengthening family ties and supporting elderly relatives.
