About Us

Deep legal knowledge. Always reachable.

SetupTurkiye is a specialist Turkish commercial law firm. We combine genuine expertise in TTK, DYYK, and notarial practice with the responsiveness and transparency that complex legal matters demand. You'll always know what's happening — and why.

Built for founders, not just lawyers.

We started SetupTurkiye because we saw the same problem repeat itself: talented entrepreneurs and established international companies hitting unnecessary delays, unexpected costs, and compliance missteps when trying to operate in Turkey — often because their legal adviser didn't communicate clearly or proactively.

Turkish commercial law is sophisticated and well-structured — but it isn't self-explanatory. The process involves multiple government systems, notarial requirements, bilingual documentation, and regulatory registrations that interact in ways that aren't obvious without deep experience.

SetupTurkiye exists to provide that expertise — and to deliver it in a way that keeps you informed at every step. We handle the filings, the translations, and the registry interactions. And we tell you exactly what we're doing, and why, throughout.

Our Values

How we work.

Three core commitments — and three supporting practices that make them real in every engagement.

💬

Always reachable

We respond the same day and proactively update you at every milestone — you'll never have to chase us to find out where things stand. Fast communication isn't a perk; it's how we work.

🔍

Full transparency

No hidden steps, no unexplained fees, no surprise requirements. We tell you exactly what we're doing, why each document is needed, and what the next milestone looks like — before it happens.

⚖️

Grounded in legal expertise

Our team has deep knowledge of TTK No. 6102, DYYK No. 4875, notarial procedure, and foreign investment law. You get substantive legal advice — not just process management.

🌐

Genuinely bilingual

Bilingual doesn't just mean we translate. It means we draft, advise, and explain in both Turkish and English at the same level of precision — so nothing is lost in translation.

🗺

One point of contact

You work with a single dedicated legal advisor from start to finish — no handoffs, no re-explanations, no gaps between teams.

🤝

Long-term relationship

Formation is the beginning, not the end. We stay available as your business grows — for amendments, new registrations, compliance questions, and eventual exits.

What We Do

Three services. End-to-end.

We cover the full lifecycle of a commercial entity in Turkey — from initial registration to international expansion and eventual closure.

01

Register a new Turkish LLC or Joint Stock Company. We handle name reservation, Articles of Association, Trade Registry filing, tax registration, and bank account support.

03

Our Approach

What working with us looks like.

Every engagement follows the same structured process — clear milestones, proactive updates, and no surprises.

💬

Initial consultation

We respond to every new enquiry within one business day. We start by understanding your situation — entity type, shareholder structure, timeline, and any cross-border considerations. No generic advice; everything is tailored.

📋

Custom checklist

You receive a precise document checklist based on your shareholders' nationalities and legal structure — with clear explanations for each item. No unnecessary requests, no missing items.

⚙️

We handle the filings

Once we have your documents, we take over entirely. We keep you updated at each stage — you'll know when documents are submitted, when approvals come through, and what's still pending.

Handover and beyond

When your entity is operational, you receive a complete file with all certificates, registration numbers, and a compliance calendar for your first year. We remain available for questions long after handover.
