Foreigners who have been living regularly in Turkey for 8 years (or more) have the opportunity to apply for a “long-term Ikamet” at the responsible “Göç İdaresi”. A long term ikamet is also known as a perpetual ikamet.
Which requirements have to be met?
The requirements for a “long-term Ikamet” are regulated by law. Anyone who has lived with Ikamets in Turkey for at least eight years can apply for a permanent Ikamet. The website of the migration management (Göç İdaresi) is available in different languages and offers you useful information and news. You can find the official German version at: https://de.goc.gov.tr
