We help individuals and freelancers understand what Turkey's new 20-year tax exemption means for them — and connect them with the right people to act on it.
On 21 May 2026, Turkey's Grand National Assembly passed one of the most significant tax residency packages in the world. A 20-year exemption from Turkish income tax on all foreign-source earnings for new qualifying residents. It was major news — and deeply confusing for most people.
Tax Free Turkey exists to cut through the noise. We translate the legislation into clear, honest language so that individuals and freelancers can understand what it actually means for their situation — before they spend a penny on professional advice.
We are not a law firm, an accounting practice, or a financial advisor. We are an information service. We do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice and nothing on this site should be relied upon as a substitute for independent professional advice.
Good decisions require good information. Too many people either miss out on legitimate opportunities or make costly mistakes because the information available is either too technical, too vague, or written to sell them something.
We believe everyone who might benefit from Turkey's new law deserves a clear, honest explanation of what it offers — and what it doesn't. No hype, no pressure, no hidden agenda.
Only when you're informed and ready do we make any introductions — and only to partners we have personally reviewed.
We keep our scope deliberately narrow so we can do each of these three things properly.
We break down Turkey's 20-year tax exemption into plain language — what's covered, what's not, who qualifies, how to apply, and what the timeline looks like. All content is based on the legislation passed on 21 May 2026 and updated as official gazette guidance is published.
When you're ready to act, we introduce you to professionals in our network in Turkey — tax advisors, immigration lawyers, bankers, and relocation specialists. We do not endorse or guarantee the services of any professional. You choose who to engage, on your own timeline, with no obligation.
As people successfully complete the residency process, our goal is to bring them together into a community — so that newcomers can learn from those who have already made the move. This is something we are building over time, not a promise we make today.
Whether you're a private individual or a remote professional, we tailor what we share to your specific situation.
For private individuals — retirees, investors, and families looking to relocate — we explain exactly how the 20-year personal tax exemption applies to your foreign income and assets.
For digital professionals earning foreign income — consultants, developers, designers, creators — Turkey's exemption means your entire client revenue could be tax-free for 20 years.
One of our longer-term goals is to bring together people who have successfully relocated to Turkey under the new law — so that future movers can learn from those who've already done it.
This is not something we offer today. But as individuals and freelancers complete the process with our help, we plan to build a community where they can share their real experiences — and where newcomers can ask honest questions before committing to a major decision.
If you're interested in being part of this community once it's ready, register your interest and we'll reach out when it launches.
Planned: Istanbul, Bodrum, Antalya and more — connect with people in the city you're considering.
Planned: Honest answers from people with firsthand experience — not marketing copy.
Planned: Connect with families who have moved children and navigated Turkish schools and healthcare.
Planned: Founders and executives who have set up companies and accounts in Turkey.
We believe in being upfront about our scope and our limitations.
An independent information service dedicated to explaining Turkey's 2026 tax law accurately and accessibly.
We want to be equally clear about what falls outside our scope, so you know when to seek qualified professional help.
Access to our information and briefings is currently free. In the future, we plan to offer optional paid service packages — for example, if you need us to connect you with a tax advisor, lawyer, or banking contact, we may charge a small coordination fee for that introduction. Any charges will always be disclosed clearly in advance.
Register your interest in under two minutes. Tell us about your situation and we'll send you a tailored briefing once the law is published in the Official Gazette.
