Turkish citizenship on general grounds.

March 11, 2023

This type of citizenship is called citizenship by naturalization. You need to meet a number of requirements to apply for citizenship by naturalization:

- have a valid residence permit or work visa for 5 years (there should be no breaks)
- permanently reside in Turkey (for example, leaving the country for a maximum of 360 days for the entire period)
- justify the intention to stay in Turkey for permanent residence (educating children, doing business, buying real estate, etc.)
- provide a certificate of non-criminal record
- provide a certificate of the absence of dangerous diseases
- to document your income
- to pass a test of knowledge of the Turkish language
- to be interviewed by a commission consisting of representatives of local authorities

After that, the members of the commission make a positive/negative decision on granting Turkish citizenship.

Important! A tourist residence permit is not a basis for applying for citizenship by naturalization.

Turkish breakfast

Breakfast in Turkey is a whole ritual that reveals the culture and traditions of the country. It is called Serpme kahvaltı. Turkish breakfast can be described in two words variety and abundance. Several types of cheeses, vegetables, avocado, sausage, fried potatoes, fried eggs or menemen (omelet with tomatoes, pepper and spices) are served on the table. A separate place is occupied by strong tea, which is served in tulip glasses and fresh pastries: white bread, tortillas and, of course, simits (soft bagel with sesame seeds). Turks just love fresh, fragrant pastries. Without this, Turkish breakfast is not breakfast.
