Overview
Property currently uses a USD 400,000 threshold and a three-year resale restriction.
Most alternative capital routes use USD 500,000 with the defined three-year holding requirement; job creation is a separate option.
Certification by the responsible authority establishes eligibility to apply, not guaranteed citizenship.

The route is investment-based, but residence and citizenship filings remain separate procedural stages.
PR & naturalization
The qualifying investment supports an exceptional citizenship application rather than an ordinary residence-to-naturalization period.
Tax note
Investment, residence, citizenship and Turkish tax residence require separate analysis. Tax advice is given only by a qualified tax professional.
Documents note
