Flexibility of Investment Atmosphere
As an OECD member, Turkey has progressively removed barriers to foreign investment. The country offers a streamlined company formation process and ensures equal treatment between domestic and foreign investors. Turkey hosts over 80,000 foreign-capital companies, reflecting strong international confidence. International arbitration is available for dispute resolution, further increasing Turkey’s attractiveness to foreign investors.

Perfect Geographical Location
Turkey's central location connecting Asia and Europe has historically made it a natural bridge between the two continents. Through its location, Turkey has embraced many commercial routes connecting the East and the West. Today, Turkey enjoys a strategically sensitive location that provides access to over 1.5 billion people in Asia, Europe, and Africa, making it the most reliable transit point in trade relations.

Turkey’s corporate income tax rate is 25%, competitive within the region. In some cases, foreign investors can benefit from full or partial tax exemptions. The government provides additional incentives in designated investment zones, including land allocation, reduced social security contributions, and other support measures to encourage investment.
