Turkey

Turkey’s citizenship by investment program is one of the most popular ones among investors.

Cosmopolitans can obtain second citizenship by investing $400,000+ in the country’s economy. Five options are available: purchase of real estate or units of an investment fund or bonds, participation in the share capital of a Turkish company, and opening of a deposit in a Turkish bank.

The purchase of real estate is the most demanded option. Real estate prices grow by 15 to 25% per year in Turkey.

Family members such as spouses and children can get second citizenship in Turkey with the investor.
