About This Guide

Turkey 20-Year Tax Guide is an independent, English-language resource explaining Türkiye's 2026 tax package — Law No. 7582, published in the Official Gazette on 4 June 2026. It exists to give foreign investors, expatriates and returning professionals a clear, accurate account of three complex measures: the 20-year foreign income exemption, the Asset Peace amnesty, and the Qualified Service Centre regime.

Who operates this site

This project is operated by Bayraktar Attorneys, a law firm based in Istanbul, Türkiye, whose international tax and corporate team advises foreign clients on Turkish residency, corporate structuring, citizenship and cross-border tax. We publish this guide because the 2026 reform is widely misunderstood, and because good decisions here depend on getting the detail right.

We are transparent about this: the site is educational, and it refers readers who need representation to Bayraktar Attorneys. It is not a directory, a lead-broker, or an anonymous blog.

How we handle accuracy

Everything here is anchored to the primary legal sources — Law No. 7582 and the specific articles it introduced (Income Tax Law Mükerrer Madde 20/D; Corporate Tax Law Geçici Madde 19; Foreign Direct Investment Law No. 4875) — and cross-checked against professional commentary from major advisory firms. Where the law leaves mechanics to secondary legislation still being issued, we say so rather than guessing. See our editorial standards for how we source and review content.

What this site is not

It is general information, not legal, tax or financial advice, and reading it does not create a lawyer-client relationship. Tax outcomes depend on your specific facts and on regulations that continue to evolve. Before acting, take advice on your own position.
