Explore the Full Company Setup Process

We’ve outlined each key step in the company formation process — from paperwork to post-registration services — to make your journey smooth, fast, and transparent.

Step 1: Company Registration in Turkey

Register Your Business with Confidence

Starting your business in Turkey begins with selecting the appropriate legal entity type, such as a Limited Liability Company (Ltd. Şti.) or a Joint Stock Company (A.Ş.), depending on your business structure, partners, and long-term goals. Our team assists you in determining the most suitable form and helps you prepare all the necessary documents, including Articles of Association, shareholder declarations, and notarized signatures. We also ensure that your desired company name complies with the registry rules and is available for use.

Once everything is ready, we handle the submission process with the Trade Registry Office, managing communication with official institutions and ensuring all legal requirements are met. The registration process typically takes a few business days, after which your company becomes officially recognized under Turkish law. From start to finish, we offer full guidance and transparency — giving you a solid foundation to launch and grow your business with confidence.

  • Legal entity type selection and name check
  • Preparation of required forms and notarized signatures
  • Registration submission to the Chamber of Commerce

Step 2: Obtaining Tax Number

Secure Your Company’s Legal Identity

After your company is officially registered, obtaining a tax number is the next crucial step to becoming operational in Turkey. The tax number acts as your business’s legal identity in all financial and governmental transactions — including opening a corporate bank account, issuing invoices, and hiring employees. Our team prepares and submits all required documents to the relevant tax office on your behalf, ensuring compliance with Turkish tax regulations.

This process also includes registering your company with the local tax authority and arranging the initial inspection at your registered office address (if required). Once the tax number is issued, it becomes the foundation for all your financial operations in Turkey. With our support, the process is quick, accurate, and stress-free — so you can move forward without unnecessary delays.

  • Preparation and submission of required documents
  • Registration with the local tax office
  • Coordination of tax office inspection (if applicable)
  • Issuance of your company’s official tax number
  • Enabling eligibility for invoicing and payroll
  • Full compliance with Turkish tax regulations

Step 3: Preparing Articles of Association

Drafting the Legal Blueprint of Your Company

The Articles of Association (AoA) serve as the legal foundation of your business in Turkey. This document outlines your company’s structure, scope of operations, shareholding details, management model, and internal rules — all in compliance with Turkish Commercial Law. It is a mandatory requirement for company registration and must be drafted with precision.

Our legal experts prepare your AoA by closely considering your business goals, industry requirements, and ownership structure. We ensure that all mandatory clauses are included, while also tailoring the document to suit your specific operational needs. Once finalized, it becomes the key reference for legal, financial, and administrative matters as your company grows.

  • Drafting a legally compliant Articles of Association
  • Defining company structure, purpose, and shareholding
  • Including special clauses based on business needs
  • Ensuring compatibility with Turkish Commercial Code
  • Legal review and approval before submission
  • Translation and notarization support when needed

Step 4: Company Registration at the Chamber of Commerce

Making Your Business Official in Turkey

Registering your company with the Chamber of Commerce is the most critical legal step to establish your presence in Turkey. This process confirms your company’s legal status and allows it to operate officially under Turkish law. Without this step, your business cannot be recognized by local authorities or enter into contracts.

We handle the entire registration process on your behalf — from preparing your application documents to coordinating with the local Chamber of Commerce. We ensure that your Articles of Association, shareholder details, and company information are submitted correctly and on time. Once the registration is complete, you receive your official registration certificate, signaling the legal launch of your business in Turkey.

  • Preparing and submitting all necessary documents
  • Coordinating with the local Chamber of Commerce
  • Handling registration application and approvals
  • Obtaining official company registration certificate
  • Recording your business in the trade registry
  • Ensuring timely and error-free processing

Step 5: Company Signature Circular Application at the Notary

Authorizing Legal Signatories in Turkey

The Signature Circular is a legally binding document that defines who can represent your company in official transactions, sign contracts, and manage financial responsibilities. It’s a critical requirement for opening a corporate bank account, signing commercial agreements, and engaging with governmental institutions. At this stage, we carefully prepare the Signature Circular, arrange your notary appointment, and ensure your company representatives are properly authorized in line with Turkish legal standards. This step helps establish your company’s official voice in Turkey’s legal and commercial ecosystem.

  • Drafting and translating the Signature Circular according to legal requirements
  • Arranging the notary appointment and guiding you through the signing process
  • Ensuring authorized representatives are officially registered and documented

Step 6: Opening Corporate Bank Account

Secure, Compliant, and Ready for Transactions

Opening a corporate bank account in Turkey is a key step to begin your company’s financial operations. This account is essential for handling payments, receiving invoices, and operating within legal financial frameworks. Turkish banks often require specific documentation, including your company registration, tax ID, and signature circular — all of which we ensure are in place.

We assist you in selecting a bank that aligns with your business needs, schedule appointments, and guide you through KYC (Know Your Customer) and compliance procedures. Our close cooperation with local banking institutions helps streamline the entire process and get your account activated swiftly.

  • Selection of the right bank tailored to your business goals
  • Preparation and submission of required documents for account opening
  • On-site or remote assistance during the application and verification process
