WELCOME TO TURKISH CITIZENSHIP BY INVESTMENT
The Turkish citizenship by investment programme was launched in 2016 and is one of the more recent programmes to roll out world wide.
Located partly in Europe and partly in Asia, Turkey is a transcontinental country renowned for its rich history and beautiful harmony of Eastern and Western cultures.
Surrounded by the Black Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Aegean Sea, Turkey has a favourable coastal climate, with dry and hot summers and mildly cool winters.
Ankara is the capital city of Turkey but its largest city, Istanbul, is more popular due to its pivotal role as a major business, finance and tourist hub.
