About Us
Otuken Consulting provides legal and financial consultancy to foreign nationals going through settlement, investment, and company processes in Turkey.
Otuken Consulting provides legal and financial consultancy to foreign nationals who want to settle, invest, or set up a company in Turkey, covering citizenship, residence permits, company formation, real estate, and investment processes. We have been working from our office in Istanbul since {{KURULUS_YILI}}.
How We Work
- Process transparency: We clearly share what stage your case is at, what comes next, and how long it will take, at every step.
- Written updates: What is discussed in meetings and the next steps are also communicated in writing; the process does not rely on verbal explanation alone.
- Multilingual communication: We can communicate in Turkish, English, and Persian, so you can follow your case in your own language.
- Handled by lawyers and financial advisors: Processes with a legal or financial dimension are followed jointly by a specialist lawyer and a financial advisor.
Our Service Areas
Turkish Citizenship
There’s more than one route to Turkish citizenship: exceptional acquisition through investment, citizenship by marriage, or — for those who’ve previously renounced citizenship — the Blue Card.
Residence and Work Permit
The permit a foreign national needs to stay in Turkey depends on why they’re here.
Company Formation
Setting up a company in Turkey as a foreign national follows largely the same rules as for a Turkish citizen — the law on foreign direct investment treats both equally.
Real Estate and Title Deed Transactions
Since 2012, foreign nationals no longer need to show that their home country grants Turkish citizens the same right before buying property in Turkey — the reciprocity requirement was removed.
Investment Consultancy
What we mean by investment advisory here is legal, financial, and administrative support for foreign investors setting up a business, building a facility, starting production, or acquiring a company in Turkey — not licensed advisory on capital markets instruments.
