Understanding the subject
The topic of moving to Istanbul must be approached methodically. In Turkey, a decision that appears simple may touch residence, tax, banking, healthcare, property, family and confidentiality. Bosphoras starts from the client’s real profile before activating any contact.
Why it matters for foreigners
International clients look at Turkey because of its position between Europe, Central Asia and the Middle East, but also because of Istanbul, Bodrum and Antalya. Istanbul is the most complete base for business and international profiles.
What to verify before deciding
Before any decision, verify applicable rules, tax consistency, documents, timeline, real costs, banking obligations and regulatory limits.
- residence and personal status
- tax impact across several countries
- documents and translations
- quality of involved professionals
- confidentiality and data handling
Istanbul, Bodrum or Antalya
Istanbul often fits business, banking, legal, private healthcare and office needs. Bodrum attracts villa, yacht, marina and discreet second-residence profiles. Antalya may be more rational for families, healthcare, climate and stable year-round living.
