A preliminary due diligence check helps identify rejection risks and find solutions in advance.
The preliminary check is entirely confidential. An investor provides only their passport. Certified professionals conduct the check with their own Compliance Department. Clients' documents are checked by certified Anti Money Laundering Officers. The preliminary due diligence lowers the risk of citizenship denial to 1%.
Pass a quick test and learn the nuances that can prevent you from obtaining a second citizenship.
Professional lawyers provide the investor with a list of documents required to participate in the program. When the documents are received, the lawyers prepare them for application: the documents are translated, copies are certified, and government forms are filled out.
Professional real estate advisors select properties that meet the investor's requirements. For example, it can be an apartment for rent or purchase of property under construction. Lawyers check the clean title to a property and the contract terms.
The investor chooses a property and makes an advance payment of $1,000—5,000. Then, the sale and purchase contract is signed and paid: it includes the total property cost minus the advance payment.
The investor gets a Turkiye residence permit as a citizenship program participant after they buy a qualifying property.
The investor must be present at the migration service in Turkiye when the citizenship application is submitted. If the investor's family obtain citizenship, the spouse's presence is also required. Children may not attend the application procedure. The investor and their spouse pass fingerprinting and take photos for their passports at the migration service.
The program department conducts Due Diligence, which takes 3—4 months. Specialists examine the investors' documents and check information about them and their families in international databases.
Due Diligence is the decisive stage of the program. The results of the check define whether the applicants will receive citizenship.
After the approval of the application, the investor receives a passport. It is unnecessary to come to Turkiye to get a passport: the document can be obtained at a Turkish embassy or a consulate in another country.
If the investor wants an ID card, they must submit biometrics in Turkiye or at the Turkish embassy. The ID card will be ready in 2—3 weeks after fingerprinting.
