Unlimited Money Transfers to Turkey: Easy, Fast, and Investor-Friendly (What Foreigners Need to Know)

Turkey is an increasingly popular destination for foreign investors who want to buy property, open businesses, or obtain citizenship through investment. One of the most attractive facts for international buyers is that there is no legal upper limit on how much an individual may transfer into Turkey for legitimate investment purposes — and when transfers are done through proper channels, the process can be fast and straightforward.

This guide explains why moving offshore funds to Turkey is practical and investor-friendly, how Majesty Turkey helps make the process seamless, and what minimal documentation you should expect so there are no surprises.

Why Transfers to Turkey Are Straightforward for Investors

Turkey actively encourages foreign direct investment. For real estate purchases and citizenship-by-investment, Turkish banks and authorities expect officially wired funds, foreign currency conversion certificates, and clear transaction records — but they do not impose arbitrary caps that block large transfers.

For most legitimate buyers, the experience is:

• Wire funds from your overseas account (USD, EUR, GBP)
• Bank receives funds and issues a currency purchase certificate
• Funds are applied to the property purchase or investment
• Title deed and other legal steps proceed smoothly

This makes Turkey attractive for property buyers, entrepreneurs, and families seeking residency or citizenship via investment.

About KYC and “Questions” — What to Expect

While the process is generally smooth, banks do perform standard KYC. That means they will verify:

• Your identity (passport, contact details)
• Ownership of the sending account
• Purpose of the transfer (e.g., real estate purchase)
• Source of funds — typically via bank statements, sale documents, corporate records, or investment proceeds

Important: KYC is a routine compliance requirement worldwide. It is not a punitive barrier — it’s a transparency step that protects buyers and sellers and ensures transfers clear quickly. For most well-documented transfers, these checks are rapid and non-intrusive.

How Majesty Turkey Makes Transfers Easier (No Stress, No Surprises)

Majesty Turkey specializes in handling every detail so transfers are accepted quickly and without friction:

1. Pre-Transfer Checklist — We prepare the exact documents your bank and the Turkish bank will want (proof of offshore account ownership, recent bank statements, proof of sale or investment purpose).
2. Preferred Banking Channels — We coordinate with Turkish banks experienced in international transfers and citizenship cases to speed clearance.
3. Currency Purchase Certificates — We ensure your transfer is properly converted and documented (required for citizenship and property records).
4. Title & Tax Coordination — We manage payment receipts and deed processes so the property purchase flows immediately after funds arrive.
5. Discreet Handling — Your privacy is protected; we work through legal, confidential channels and trusted partners.

Typical Documents You’ll Need

• Valid passport (and copies for co-buyers/family)
• Offshore bank statements (3–6 months)
• Proof of account ownership (bank letter or statement)
• Sales contract or investment agreement in Turkey
• Purpose of funds declaration (standard form provided by Majesty Turkey)

If funds come from corporate or trust structures, we prepare corporate documents and beneficial-owner declarations to satisfy banks’ compliance checks.

Tips to Speed Up Approval

• Use SWIFT bank transfer to a Turkish IBAN (USD/EUR/GBP)
• Label the transfer purpose clearly (e.g., “Property purchase – [Property Address]”)
• Send complete docs in advance so banks do not request additional items
• Avoid cash deposits at arrival — wired funds show a clean audit trail

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Will Turkish banks block large transfers?
