Inheritance Tax in Turkey

Tax declaration and clearance for estate assets. Prepare the tax route required before banks and land registry offices release inherited assets.

What this service covers

This service is designed for heirs, estate representatives and families abroad who need a Turkish inheritance matter handled in a structured way. We first identify the practical goal: proving heirship, transferring title, releasing bank assets, completing tax steps, selling property, resolving a dispute or implementing a foreign will.

Once the goal is clear, we prepare the legal route and the document strategy. This prevents unnecessary translations, incomplete powers of attorney and repeated requests from Turkish institutions.

Typical work steps

• Initial legal review of heirs, documents and Turkish assets.
• Selection of the correct authority or institution in Turkey.
• Preparation of document and power of attorney requirements for heirs abroad.
• Coordination of translations, apostilles, tax and registry steps where needed.
• Follow-up toward transfer, bank release, sale, settlement or litigation.

When legal representation is especially useful

Legal representation is particularly useful where heirs live outside Turkey, documents were issued abroad, several heirs must act together, a foreign will or probate file exists, a property is occupied by one heir, or a Turkish bank or land registry office refuses to proceed without further documents.

Next step

For a first review, send a short summary and the documents already available. We will respond with the likely route and the items that should be prepared next.
