Housing that qualifies for a residence permit

A category no portal offers, because it takes knowledge of the law rather than of inventory. The address must sit in an open mahalle, the contract must be notarised, the registration must be real. Any one of the three failing brings down the other two.

Law that applies to this segment
Göç İdaresiNeighbourhood status
In neighbourhoods closed to registration no residence permit is issued at that address — whether the housing is rented or bought, and at any price. The status is checked against the ministry file and changes without notice, so it always carries a verification date.
Checked 2026-08-16
NVİAddress registration
Address registration conditions both residence permit renewal and a place in a state school. It requires a notarised lease, not a hand-signed one.
Checked 2026-08-17
Göç İdaresiResidence permit on a $200,000 purchase
The price threshold alone is not enough: the address must sit in a mahalle open for registration. Both conditions are checked independently and either one failing ends the matter.

10Antalya neighbourhoods closed to registration

Alanya 4 (Kargıcak, Mahmutlar, Kestel, Avsallar), Konyaaltı 3, Döşemealtı 2, Muratpaşa 1. No residence permit is issued at these addresses regardless of the transaction amount.

Contradicted by publications. Agency publications claim Alanya reopened on 4 June 2026. Checks against the Official Gazette and the ministry file do not confirm this: no act exists and the file is dated 31 August 2022.

What to check here specifically
  • The mahalle status of the address — before the viewing, not after the deposit
  • Notarisation of the contract: without it there is no address registration
  • Whether the building holds an iskan
  • The owner’s consent to register the occupant — required separately
  • The address in the contract matching the tapu down to the flat number
Common mistakes and schemes
  • Taking the agent’s word on the mahalle. The status changes without notice and is confirmed only by the dated ministry file
  • Assuming the purchase price is enough. A closed mahalle ends the matter at any price
  • Relying on the “rental” ikamet — a lease plus a bank balance no longer qualifies as grounds
Who this suits and who it does not
+
  • those for whom the permit is the goal and the housing is the means
  • citizens of countries barred from buying property in Türkiye: this route is closed to them too
