Approved Financial Routes
Certain approved deposit, fund, bond or capital-investment routes generally begin at USD 500,000 and require certification by the relevant authority.
Due Diligence and Approval
Investment certification and citizenship approval are separate steps. Eligibility depends on complete documentation, lawful funds and government review.
Program Overview
Türkiye’s citizenship-by-investment framework allows eligible investors to apply through approved routes, including qualifying property and specified financial investments. The property route generally begins at USD 400,000, while several financial routes generally begin at USD 500,000.
Investment execution, official certification and citizenship review are distinct stages. The qualifying asset must generally be held for at least three years. Thresholds, acceptable assets and evidence must be reconfirmed before funds are committed. Approval is not automatic. Legal, tax, banking and property advice should be coordinated before implementation.
Who It May Suit
This route may suit investors seeking a citizenship strategy linked to a qualifying investment in Türkiye and who can document the lawful source and transfer of funds.
The appropriate route depends on investment type, family composition, banking access, holding objectives and tax position. Orbitus coordinates strategy and documentation with licensed local counsel and regulated professionals. Final eligibility and approval remain with the Turkish authorities.
