1. Short-Term Residence Permit
For short-term residence permits, foreigners who own real estate in Türkiye or intend to establish a business or make business connections in Türkiye must submit the following documents to the relevant Provincial Directorate of Migration Management (İl Göç İdaresi Müdürlüğü) once an application is submitted through the e-residence system. (e-ikamet.goc.gov.tr), short-term residence permits are issued for a maximum of two years as a principle. However, foreigners who intend to invest in Türkiye in amounts and scopes attested by the Council of Ministers, along with their spouse and children, may be granted a five-year short-term residence permit. Furthermore, these investors may apply for acquisition of Turkish citizenship or a long-term residence permit.
2. Long-Term Residence Permit for Foreigners
For long-term residence permits, foreigners who have continuously resided in Türkiye for at least eight years must submit the following documents to the relevant Provincial Directorate of Migration Management (İl Göç İdaresi Müdürlüğü). Long-term residence permits are issued indefinitely; therefore, no extension application is required.
