Why Türkiye for Syrian investors
A neighbour you already know
Aleppo and Gaziantep have traded, cooked and celebrated together for centuries. Syrian families find familiar flavours, markets and a shared rhythm of life in cities like Gaziantep, Hatay, Mersin and Istanbul, so visiting or settling in feels natural from the very first day.
A community close to you
Many Syrian families and business owners already live and work across Türkiye. Arabic is heard in shops, clinics and neighbourhoods, and Syrian entrepreneurs run restaurants, trading firms and workshops, giving newcomers a warm network for daily life and for business.
A clear financial route
Your route is a USD 500,000 investment in eligible funds, a deposit at a Turkish bank or Turkish government bonds. You hold it for 3 years, and our investor relations team helps you prepare the documents, open the account and follow the application from start to finish.
Freedom for the whole family
Your spouse and children under 18 can be included in one application. Türkiye does not ask you to live in the country, to speak Turkish or to give up your current nationality, so your family plans stay flexible and everyone keeps their own life.
Your investment route to Turkish citizenship
Fund, deposit or bonds: USD 500,000
Invest USD 500,000 in eligible real estate or venture capital funds, a deposit at a bank in Türkiye or government bonds, and keep the investment for 3 years.
The process for Syrian applicants
A first call in your language: goals, fund, deposit or bond option, budget and family composition.
Document preparation at home: legalisation and translation.
Bank account in Türkiye and traceable transfer of the investment amount.
Investment execution: purchase of fund units, a bank deposit or government bonds, with the holding commitment recorded.
Conformity certificate, investor residence permit and the citizenship application.
Decision and passport issuance; family members included in the same file.
Practical notes for Syrian applicants
Syria uses consular legalisation for official documents: the issuing authority, the Syria ministry of foreign affairs and then the Turkish consulate. Our investor relations team coordinates these steps with you.
The investment is sent from Syria by traceable bank transfer to your account in Türkiye. Keep the bank records and the exchange certificate, because they are part of the application file.
Syria allows its citizens to hold another citizenship alongside their own.

Frequently asked
Can my wife and children become Turkish citizens too?
Yes. Your spouse and your children under 18 can be added to the same application. Our team prepares the family documents together with yours, so everyone moves forward in one file and through one process.
Which investment option suits a Syrian investor best?
