Guides on Turkish company structures — from the popular Ltd. Şti. to the more complex A.Ş. Understand which legal form suits your business before you incorporate.
Turkey's Turkish Commercial Code (TTK, Law No. 6102) offers several company structures, but the two dominant forms for foreign investors are the Limited Liability Company (Ltd. Şti., TTK Art. 573–644) and the Joint Stock Company (A.Ş., TTK Art. 329–563). Choosing the right structure affects your minimum capital requirement, shareholder liability exposure, governance obligations, and ability to raise external capital.
