 Details about capital

 

 The most important aspect of starting a business in Turkey is capital

 Turkish law stipulates that the minimum capital is 10,000 TL, but this amount does not give any additional powers

 Turkish law is treated differently with companies in Turkey according to the value of capital, so it is always advised that the capital should be at least 100,000 TL

 The following shall be required to sign a contract of incorporation in Turkey:

 

 Chartered accountant

 His job is different from that of the company's internal accountant

 At the end of each month, the chartered accountant receives invoices, expenses and purchases of the company and registers them with the Turkish state departments.

 It is noteworthy that the Turkish law considers the presence of a chartered accountant a prerequisite and in the absence of it is considered a violation that may be punished up to the closure of the company

 In addition, the cost of a chartered accountant is at least 400 TL per month, and the amount given to the accountant varies depending on the nature and size of the company.

 

 Company books

 

 Are the books that are registered all the accounts of the company in Turkey

 They are handed over to the competent State departments periodically at the end of each year

 The company in Turkey is a legal entity and has a tax number

 Companies in Turkey have quarterly and annual taxes, in addition to rent taxes totaling on average between 1,500 and 3,000 TL.

 After the completion of the incorporation of the company and ratification and completion of all procedures in cooperation with the agent or mediator, go to the Tax Department in order to register the company in Turkey and obtain a tax number for the company

 Thereafter, the company's taxes may be paid periodically at the competent tax departments.
