Doing Business in Turkey: Company Setup, Tax and Compliance

Foreign companies can operate in Türkiye through a subsidiary, a branch or a liaison office, and each option is taxed differently. Corporate income tax follows a territorial principle for non-residents, digital compliance is strict, with e-invoicing and e-ledger rules covering most businesses, and the way a Turkish entity is financed changes its tax bill.

These guides cover the questions finance and legal teams ask before entering the market: how foreign companies are taxed, which e-invoicing thresholds apply, how debt and equity financing are treated and how to restructure tax-efficiently.
