Guides on the ongoing legal and tax obligations of Turkish companies — what you must do after incorporation to stay in good standing with the Trade Registry, Tax Office, and Social Security Institution.
Incorporation is the beginning, not the end. Turkish companies — both Ltd. Şti. and A.Ş. — carry recurring legal and tax obligations from the moment they are registered. These include corporate income tax filings, VAT returns, SGK employer registrations, annual general assemblies, statutory book maintenance, and Trade Registry update requirements under TTK Art. 33.
Articles in this category break down each obligation in plain English — who it applies to, when it is due, and what happens if it's missed.
