Foreigners Law
Foreigners law covers residence permits, work authorization, deportation, and Turkish citizenship acquisition. Alanya hosts one of Turkey’s largest foreign populations; investment-based citizenship and long-term residence permits constitute significant legal practice areas.
If your residence permit application in Turkey has been refused, you have just 10 days to act before a deportation order becomes possible. This guide explains cancellation lawsuits, suspension of enforcement, the 6-month rule, and key defences for Alanya property owners.
If the property you rent in Alanya is sold, your tenancy agreement does not end automatically. Under the Turkish Code of Obligations (TBK), the new owner steps into the existing contract and cannot evict you immediately, raise the rent arbitrarily or ignore your deposit. Foreign tenants should also be aware of residence permit, translation and formal notice requirements.
