Company Formation
Limited Liability Company (Ltd. Şti.)
The most popular structure for foreign entrepreneurs in Turkey — flexible, straightforward, and suitable for almost every business type. You do not need to be a Turkish citizen, you do not need a local partner, and the minimum capital requirement is genuinely accessible. We handle the trade registry, notary procedures, tax office registration, and SGK setup, so your company is fully operational from day one.
Joint Stock Company (A.Ş.)
If you are building something larger — a company with multiple shareholders, external investment potential, or ambitions beyond a single market — a joint stock company gives you the structure to grow. It requires more setup than a limited company, but for serious investors and international businesses entering Turkey, it is the right foundation. We manage every stage of incorporation.
Branch Office
Already operating internationally and want a legal foothold in Turkey without creating a separate company? A branch office lets your existing business operate here under its own name, without the need for a new legal entity. It requires Ministry approval and specific documentation — and we coordinate the full application so the process does not slow down your market entry.
Liaison Office
For foreign companies that want a presence in Turkey for research, market exploration, or relationship building — without conducting commercial activity — a liaison office is the right structure. It is not permitted to generate revenue in Turkey, but it establishes your brand and your team legally. We prepare the application and manage the renewal process every three years.
Post-Formation Legal Support
Setting up the company is just the beginning. Bank account opening, work permit applications for foreign employees, contract drafting, and ongoing compliance all require attention as your business grows. We stay with you after formation — as the legal partner your Turkey operation can rely on.
