  1. Good day! I am a Filipino and planning to work in a hotel in bodrum turkey for 6months. How can I obtain a working permit ? What are the documents. Pls help

    1. Hello, the work permit can be obtained by the company that will work, not by the foreign person.

  2. Hello, I am a UK citizen. If I apply for a 1 year residency permit must I have $12,000USD in my bank account? I read applicants should have $1000USD for each month of their stay.

    I would like to stay in Turkey for about 8 months. Should I have $8,000 or $12,000?

    Also, for the accommodation, can I use an airbnb accommodation or should I find something more official?

    Thank you very much for considering my questions.

    1. Hello,

      For the residence permit application you should have a rental contract on your name, if the owner of airbnb accommodation could conclude a rental contract with you, there is no obstacles to apply for the process then. In regards of bank account statement, for 8 months of residence permit application, 8000 USD will be sufficient.

  4. Merhaba/Salam,

    I have a couple of very quick questions about 1-2 year residence permit. 

    I understand the rules for myself. The $12000 usd and renting an apartment in Antalya, I shouldn’t have any issues. My question is for my girlfriend. We are not officially married, but have been together for multiple years. 

     
    1) Do I have to put her name on the rental agreement for our apartment or is this not necessary?
    2) Does she also need $12000 usd in another account or can we both use my account for the $12000 usd? So, do we need $24000 or can we use $12000 together?

    Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. 

    Respectfully,

    Ali

    1. Hello,

      As you are not officially married, that is why her name should be also added to the rental contract. In regards of bank statement, in case if immigration officer will request for it, it should be on your girlfriend’s name.

      Thank you,

While leaving Turkey you will need to pay a fine, which for citizens of Albania is 28 USD for first month and 7 USD for every following month of overstay. Please, be informed that final decision on the amount of fine will be taken by customs at the airport and it can differ from official amounts.
