Client experiences

Those who built a life abroad

5.0average rating · 5 Reviews
They compared three programmes in writing and recommended not the one with the highest commission but the one best suited to my family's needs. Thanks to the source-of-funds report, due diligence went smoothly.
Mehmet Ali SarıkayaBusinessman, Caribbean citizenship
They had the valuation done independently when choosing the property, and handled the title deed and tax number procedures without trouble. Following every step in the panel was very reassuring.
Gizem ve Onur KalaycıFamily, Greek residence
They calculated my points and drew up a plan to close the missing points through a language exam. I prepared in 14 months and got the card; I now work for a company in Munich.
Ece YıldıztekinSoftware engineer, Germany Opportunity Card
They spoke frankly about tax residency; I saw my tax obligations in two countries in writing from the start. There were no surprises.
Cengiz AydınlıRetired, Spanish residence
The process was completed in two months. My adviser gave no guarantee but explained clearly what would happen at each stage; that honesty convinced me.

FAQ

Investment and residence FAQs

Have a question?Write to us
Do you guarantee approval?
No. A residence, citizenship or work permit decision belongs to the relevant state body alone. No advisory company can guarantee approval. We provide profile analysis, document and source-of-funds preparation, compliance and process management.
Is the investment amount included in your advisory fee?
No. The investment amount is paid directly to the government fund, the property seller or the investment fund; we do not collect cash on behalf of clients. Our advisory (file management) fee is written fixed and separately in the contract.
What is the difference between citizenship and residence?
Citizenship gives you that country's passport and all rights of citizenship; residence gives the right to live and often work in the country but no passport. Residence often depends on holding the investment and must be renewed.
Is dual citizenship allowed in Türkiye?
Turkish nationality law permits dual citizenship; however, you need to notify Türkiye of your second citizenship and assess obligations such as tax and military service separately. Confirm the current legislation with your legal adviser.
Why is the source of funds so important?
States and banks examine the legitimate source of invested money under anti-money-laundering rules. An undocumented or inconsistent source is the most common reason for refusal. The SoF report should therefore be prepared before the investment decision.
Can my family members be included in the programme?
In most programmes the spouse and dependent children, and in many the parents, are covered. Age limits and extra fees vary by programme; Caribbean programmes offer a fixed amount up to a certain family size.
