Great video really informative. But I have two questions, can't I shop online with an ATM card( not credit card)? Second, how do I get a proof of address if I'm living in a university dorm?
No you cannot use the ATM card for online shopping. It will not work. As for the proof, then it would be very difficult. Do you have any from agreement with your uni ?
I am unable to provide a utility bill as proof of address as I am only a tenant in the house and not the owner - if I cannot provide a utility bill as proof of address what should I do?
Can you please do a video on Turkish taxation ? I want to open a offshore bank account in Turkey ( won’t be living there however do have a residence permit which will be used for opening the bank account). The account will only be used for transferring money from my homeland to the bank account in Turkey and checking account ( mostly online shopping). Do I have to pay tax for transferring the money into the Turkish bank account? If yes, how much is the tax percentage ?
Thanks a lot for sharing the information. I am non resident and plan to open a bank account in turkey while visiting as a tourist. Any idea if the utility bill has to be in English? Or translated at a certified translator. I am coming from Germany.
Mine was in Arabic and I presented my Arabic ID that showed my name in english and Arabic and they accepted it. If your bills have the same name as your passport then you would not need it translated or certified, I guess. But if you don't want to take a chance then just translate it for peace of mind.
man, you probably use gold ETF and not gold, they're different things. Not every branch will open an account for a foreigner. In what branch did you open an account?
Maybe you are right. But because I saw some many ATMs that you can buy a real gold in that bank I assumed it was a real Gold. The bank I am referring to is KuveytTurk Bank and I opened it in the Mall of Istanbul Branch.
If you want to open a bank account in Turkey without being here then the only way is to give a Power of Attorney to a person in Turkey with Turkish ID to do that for you. If you are here already then it depends if you have a residency permit or not. If you don't and you just want to buy a property then I can recommend 2 banks: KuveytTurk Bank or AlBaraka Bank. You will need you passport and any utility bills on your name (gas, electric, water, Internet or mobile bill). But you should be very confidence and persuasive and tell them that you want to make an investment in Turkey and will be putting a lot of money into your account to buy a property. Just whatsapp me on +90 552 313 7483 and I will share all other information with you. Otherwise my comment will become huge! LOL.
Thank you for this valuable information. I have been doing research and have learned that before you can get utilities you first must get residency and that this can take up to 6 weeks. Is this correct? We will rent before we purchase so we have time to get to know the area. Since it takes so long to be able to get utilities it is advised that we remain in our hotel or air b&b until we get out residency permit.
Hi Jenny, Thanks for the comment. I am not sure who told you that but that's not entirely true. Yes some banks ask for residency permit but there are some that don't. If you just need a bank account and you don't need a residency visa at all then you can go to KuveytTurk Bank and they only ask for your passport, Turkish TaxID and utility bills on your name (from your own country, where you came from) and that's it.
I cannot rent an apartment and have a utility under my name as a foreigner. Hence, I cannot open a bank account. I visited different banks and non of them allowed me to open a bank account.
Sir my non resident account accept the Turkish bank but I forgot my account password so how to get my password and website plz response me sir plz help me how to contact Turkish Istanbul bank in website plz response me I am waiting for your msg sir
Did you get appointment for opening a bank account or you went directly to the bank and they opened ac at the same day? Beacuse i went other branch in esenyurt they gave me appointment for ac opening on 11 nov its too long
Yes it was in the same day and took about 2 hours to finish and get my bank card too. Just go to Mall of Istanbul Branch and try there. Let me know how it goes.
I'm in Istanbul, have been to almost 6 banks to open an account as a nonresident after registering my tax number and also carrying my back home Toronto hydro bills, but everyone has refused before even looking over the documents and finding the reason. Wondering if there are specific branches that entertain foreigners?
Same problem. They do not let you open an account unless you rent a place. The issue is Turkey has scrapped 1-year tourist visas, so you won't be able to rent a place to have an address. One bank employee asked for a bribe to do it for me and I refused.
The utility bill is required to open a bank account in Turkey. If you are coming to Turkey just to live and you don't need a bank account then you don't need to worry about it. To get a residency visa you are not required to have a bank account or have a utility bill in your name.
Hello. Thank you for your information about banking. When you say buy gold. Is that .9999 or 28 carrot gold that Turkey cannot revaluate? Do you get it in bars, or is it an input on your bank statement? If the Turkish economy goes bad for some reason, will the gold be devalued to the customer in order to protect the gov?
Hello there. Yes of course you can! Please make sure you bring the mentioned documents with you, mainly your passport and Utility bill o your name and address. The Turkish Tax ID can be acquired once you are in Turkey.
Hello thank u for the information 🙏🏻 i have a question. Is there a fee we have to pay to open a bank account or an amount of money we need to put in the account to activate it?
Some do and some don't. For example, I heard that AlBarakah charges $100 to open a bank account. In Kuveit Turk bank I paid 1000TL as a deposit for them to open a Credit Card account with the spending limit of 1000 TL. But if you don't want Credit Card account then you don;t pay anything.
Thank you for your response. If I may ask 1 more, where can I obtain or get a Tax Number? I’m here in Istanbul now maybe you can direct me where the office is located to obtain a tax number. Thank you
Hi @Ricardo Tuazon ! No problem at all. First you can try getting the TaxId online. I've made a how to video on that too. You can check it out here: th-cam.com/video/BFJMqXQ2YLE/w-d-xo.html Make sure you read the comments section as well. There are some valuable notes. If that does not work you can go to Vergi Dairesi (Tax House) located just outside the Metro station called Emniyet Fatih. It is in Fatih area basically. If they tell you that you should do it online just show them any error you are getting (the screenshot) and they will give you one there and then. I hope it helps. Share with us your experience after you've got your tax ID :-)
With some of the banks yes you do need to reside but with KuveytTurk and Al Baraka Bank you don't need to. As for the documents, yes it should be from the country you live in
Hi, Having followed your recommendation of KuveytTürk and also a recommendation of a friend I went today to open a bank account as a foreign national in Turkey at KuveytTürk Konya. I obtained my Tax ID using the information given in your other video. However, I was disappointed when the clerk informed me he was not able to open an account using the Tax ID. When the Tax ID is fed into the bank's system all your details (address, mother's name, father's name etc.) should automatically be filled in. In my case, many of the details were missing, some were not, for example 'Father's name' had been automatically filled whereas 'Mother's name' was missing, yet all the details are on the Tax ID form. I obtained the Tax ID on Monday and today is Wednesday. Is there an explanation for this, is there a lag time? Many thanks in advance. AK
I am sorry to hear about your bad experience. It is strange that half of the info was saved and the half was not saved. So they could not open the bank account for you at the end? What did they tell you to do at the end? Most probably you will need to go to Tax House (Vergi Dairesi) in Konya and get it updated from there, after explaining your situation.
@@TurkeyPropertyBeys KuveytTürk initially asked for a Foreigner Identification Number which I didn't have. They said they would try opening an account using my Tax ID. This, as previously discussed, failed, after which they suggested I try one of the government banks. The next day I went to the Il Göç Idaresi and managed to obtain (although a lot of convincing was needed) a Foreigner Identification Number. I returned to KuveytTürk, however, they were once again unable to open an account; they required a Turkish address; I live in the UK. Today, Halk bank requested I present a work permit and informed me the only they could open an account for a foreigner was by communication with an employer who would facilitate in the opening of an account. Yapı Kredi require managerial approval before a foreigner may open an account. They directed me to one of the Government banks. The government banks are recommending I visit the private banks and the private government. 😁 I am in Istanbul for a few days next week. Which KuveytTürk branch did you use to open your account, I will give them a try? Look forward to your reply. AK

I am interested to open A/C in time deposit account. I 've read that the interest rate varies some where around 16%-17% per year. I want to ask that is this information correct? Is it possible to invest amount for the term agreed, lets say for one year, but get interest amount on monthly basis? and what deduction will occur to interest payable?
@@TurkeyPropertyBeys Is it possible for you to visit any commercial bank and ask them and then post it here? If you have time? The information is important if its real cause no other bank offer such rate for time deposits. I am sure that will benefit many.
to open bank you need Tax number , to get tax number you need Turkish mobile number, how can i get a phone number ? how can i do this from overseas before coming to turkey to save time? if i can get the tax number ready would be great.
Hi there. All of what you said is correct. But you will need to be here in Turkey in order to get a tax Id. You can get it while being abroad. It takes only few minutes online or you can get it by going to the nearest Tax Office. Turkish number is also easy to get one you are in Turkey. I can assist you with that once you are here.
It is needed fo sure as I personally experienced it myself and they did ask for it and they said they won't be able to do it without it. That was Kuveyt Turk Bank.
@@TurkeyPropertyBeys I also open my bank account in Ziraat Bank ... Just registered my address and no bill on my name... This is dusra Pakistan ...😀 Every person have own rules

You are giving wrong information here. I did visit 3 banks (Ziraat, Iş and Garanti) here in Izmir to open an account. They all asked for an address in Turkey. I had my US Passport, Turkish Tax Id number and 3 copies of my US home utility bills with me. They did not even look at those, when they heard I don't have an address in Turkey. Please, stop spreading wrong information. Thanks.
Hello Reza. Thank you for your message. I am sorry to hear about your bad experience with mentioned banks. I am not giving any wrong information at all and just shared my personal experience. with opening a bank account in Istanbul with KuveytTurk bank. And it is not just me who opened the same way with the same information. There are plenty of foreigner friends and clients I know who did in the same fashion and got their banks accounts opened. Maybe it works differently in Izmir and/or with those 3 banks you mentioned (maybe their requirement consists of all documents mentioned plus tenancy contract). Or maybe you were unlucky with the person who served you that day. Whatever it is it wasn't so nice of you to accuse me of spreading the wrong information. How would I benefit from it? Anyway, all the best and I hope you will eventually open your bank account in Izmir. If you can't then please feel free to come to Istanbul, go to the Mall of Istanbul branch of KuveytTurk Bank (this is where I opened mine without any problem talking to an English speaking person) and hopefully you will be fine.
I thik you should say how to open a KuveitTurkey bank account in the big mall of Istanbul branch for people who are from Kuveit with a Kuveit passport. Otherwise, the title of your video and the content of your video is misinformation.
@@Reza16888 LOL. It is not for Kuwaitis. It is for anyone in Turkey. Just try it. Just the name has the word Kuvait. :-) Just ask any Turk if you like.
The fact that you use your Kuveiti passport and open up an account in a KuveitTurkey bank means as if a Kuveiti citizen opened a bank account in a Kuveit bank that has a branch in Istanbul. Again, you say ask any Turks. Of course, a Turk with a Turkish Kimlik can open an account in a KuveitTurkey bank account. The name says it all... KuveitTurkey. That means only Kuveiti people and Turkish people. Because, their Ids are tied to an address either in Kuveit or Turkey. For example, a tourist from the USA who is staying at a hotel for just a few weeks cannot open a bank account in any banks in Turkey, including the KuveitTurkey bank. Have you seen a tourist from any other country open a bank account in KuveitTurkey bank in Turkey? Again, your video is misleading and misinformational. You might want to be a little more exact and clear.
the info was really helpful. thank you for your time and effort.

Please, stop spreading wrong information. Thanks.
Hello Reza. Thank you for your message. I am sorry to hear about your bad experience with mentioned banks. I am not giving any wrong information at all and just shared my personal experience. with opening a bank account in Istanbul with KuveytTurk bank. And it is not just me who opened the same way with the same information. There are plenty of foreigner friends and clients I know who did in the same fashion and got their banks accounts opened. Maybe it works differently in Izmir and/or with those 3 banks you mentioned (maybe their requirement consists of all documents mentioned plus tenancy contract). Or maybe you were unlucky with the person who served you that day. Whatever it is it wasn't so nice of you to accuse me of spreading the wrong information. How would I benefit from it?
Anyway, all the best and I hope you will eventually open your bank account in Izmir. If you can't then please feel free to come to Istanbul, go to the Mall of Istanbul branch of KuveytTurk Bank (this is where I opened mine without any problem talking to an English speaking person) and hopefully you will be fine.
I thik you should say how to open a KuveitTurkey bank account in the big mall of Istanbul branch for people who are from Kuveit with a Kuveit passport. Otherwise, the title of your video and the content of your video is misinformation.
@@Reza16888 LOL. It is not for Kuwaitis. It is for anyone in Turkey. Just try it. Just the name has the word Kuvait. :-) Just ask any Turk if you like.
The fact that you use your Kuveiti passport and open up an account in a KuveitTurkey bank means as if a Kuveiti citizen opened a bank account in a Kuveit bank that has a branch in Istanbul. Again, you say ask any Turks. Of course, a Turk with a Turkish Kimlik can open an account in a KuveitTurkey bank account. The name says it all... KuveitTurkey. That means only Kuveiti people and Turkish people. Because, their Ids are tied to an address either in Kuveit or Turkey. For example, a tourist from the USA who is staying at a hotel for just a few weeks cannot open a bank account in any banks in Turkey, including the KuveitTurkey bank. Have you seen a tourist from any other country open a bank account in KuveitTurkey bank in Turkey?
Again, your video is misleading and misinformational. You might want to be a little more exact and clear.
Chill is not that deep lol.
