Migration lawyer in Turkey
Turkey attracts Ukrainians not only as a tourist destination, but also as a country for long-term stay or immigration. Thanks to its comfortable climate, developed infrastructure and loyal migration rules, it has become a popular choice for many. The law firm “Prikhodko & Partners”, which specializes in migration issues, will help you understand the intricacies of obtaining a residence permit in Turkey, providing professional support at every stage.
Why choose Turkey for migration?
Turkey remains one of the key destinations for Ukrainians looking for relocation opportunities. According to the Turkish Migration Service, as of 2025, there are about 150,000 Ukrainian citizens living in Turkey, some of whom have received a residence permit. Of these, about 70,000 people have obtained a short-term residence permit, mainly for tourist or humanitarian reasons, while others have chosen long-term reasons, such as buying real estate or employment. These statistics reflect the growing interest of Ukrainians in Turkey as a country for long-term residence.
Turkey attracts not only with its geographical location on the border of Europe and Asia, but also with its economic opportunities. Large cities such as Istanbul, Ankara or Antalya offer comfortable conditions for living, working and doing business. Our company will help you assess the prospects of immigration and choose the best way for legal residence in Turkey.
What are the entry rules to Turkey for Ukrainians?
Ukrainian citizens can enter Turkey without a visa, which significantly simplifies the initial stage of their stay. According to the visa-free regime, Ukrainians have the right to stay in the country for up to 90 days within 180 days if they have a valid passport. The passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry, which is carefully checked by the Turkish border service.
After the 90-day period is over, it is necessary to determine the grounds for further stay. This may be obtaining a residence permit on the basis of tourism, humanitarian or other grounds. Without the appropriate permission, staying in Turkey after the specified period may result in fines or other administrative sanctions. Our company’s lawyers will help you prepare for this stage in a timely manner to avoid complications.
What are the grounds for obtaining a residence permit?
Obtaining a residence permit in Turkey is possible on several grounds that correspond to different life situations. Among the most common are:
- Renting a property. A tourist residence permit is often issued on the basis of a rental agreement. This is one of the easiest ways to legally stay for those who plan to live in Turkey temporarily. It is important to note that for renting, it is necessary to choose a property in those areas where there is no significant number of foreign citizens, according to the lists published on the Turkish state portal.
- Buying a property. Purchasing a property in Turkey is a popular way to obtain a residence permit. Property owners can apply for a permit for a period of one year with the possibility of extension. For registration, documents confirming the right of ownership and an extract from the land registry are required.
- Guardianship from a Turkish citizen. If you are under the guardianship of a Turkish citizen (for example, as part of a family relationship), this may be the basis for obtaining a residence permit. In this case, you must provide documents confirming the relationship, and also contact a notary before visiting the migration service.
- Employment. For those planning to work in Turkey, you need to obtain a work visa and a work permit. This process requires agreements with the employer in Turkey, as well as his participation at the stage of drawing up the necessary documents.
Each of these grounds has its own characteristics and requirements for documents. Our lawyers will help you choose the best ground and prepare all the necessary documents for successful registration.
