The Legal Istanbul

Deportation & Legal Defense

Entry Ban Removal

An entry ban or restriction code on your passport can feel like a wall — but in many cases, it can be challenged and removed. Whether you were unaware of the ban or were given no explanation, we analyse the code, prepare the administrative objection, and pursue removal through the correct legal channels. We have seen these cases resolved — and we know how to approach them.

Deportation Order Appeal

A deportation order does not have to be the final word. Turkish administrative law provides a right of appeal — but the window is short and the process is unforgiving if handled incorrectly. We prepare the full case file, apply for a stay of execution where possible, and follow the case through the administrative court. Time matters here — contact us immediately.

Removal Centre Support

Being held in a removal centre is one of the most frightening situations a foreign national can face. You have rights — including the right to challenge your detention before a judge. We file the legal objection, attend the hearing, and work urgently to secure your release or regularise your immigration status. Do not wait — every day counts.

Voluntary Return Support

Sometimes the best path forward is a controlled, dignified return to your home country — one that protects your ability to come back to Turkey in the future. We advise on voluntary return options, help you understand the consequences for future applications, and manage the process so your departure does not close more doors than it needs to.
