What Is a Certificate of Inheritance in Turkey?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A certificate of inheritance, known in Turkish as a <em>miras\u00e7\u0131l\u0131k belgesi<\/em> or <em>veraset ilam\u0131<\/em>, is an official document identifying the legal heirs of a deceased person and their respective <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/how-to-transfer-inherited-property-in-turkey\/\">inheritance shares<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It is commonly required when dealing with inherited assets in Turkey, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Real estate and land registered in Turkey.<\/li>\n<li>Bank accounts and deposits.<\/li>\n<li>Shares and other financial assets.<\/li>\n<li>Other rights and assets forming part of the estate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The certificate establishes who is entitled to inherit and in what proportions. However, it does not automatically transfer ownership of a property or release money held in a bank account. Separate procedures must be completed with the relevant authorities and institutions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Can_Foreign_Citizens_Obtain_a_Certificate_of_Inheritance_in_Turkey\"><\/span>2. Can Foreign Citizens Obtain a Certificate of Inheritance in Turkey?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Yes. Foreign nationality does not, by itself, prevent a person from <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/how-to-transfer-inherited-property-in-turkey\/\">inheriting assets<\/a> in Turkey or applying for a certificate of inheritance.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign heirs may apply to the competent Turkish Civil Court of Peace (<em>Sulh Hukuk Mahkemesi<\/em>) to establish their inheritance rights.<\/p>\n<p>Under Turkish legislation, notaries do not have authority to issue certificates of inheritance in cases involving foreign nationals within the scope of the relevant statutory restrictions. Therefore, foreign heirs generally need to follow the court procedure.<\/p>\n<p>The court examines the deceased&#8217;s identity, family relationships, supporting documents and the applicable inheritance law before determining the heirs and their shares.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Which_Countrys_Inheritance_Law_Applies\"><\/span>3. Which Country&#8217;s Inheritance Law Applies?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the most important issues in international inheritance cases is determining which country&#8217;s law governs the succession.<\/p>\n<p>Under Article 20 of Turkish Private International and Procedural Law No. 5718 (M\u00d6HUK), succession is generally governed by the national law of the deceased.<\/p>\n<p>However, Turkish law applies to immovable property located in Turkey, regardless of the deceased person&#8217;s nationality.<\/p>\n<p>This distinction can be important where a foreign national dies owning an apartment, house or land in Turkey.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if a German citizen dies leaving an apartment in Izmir, the applicable foreign <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/how-to-transfer-inherited-property-in-turkey\/\">inheritance law<\/a> may need to be examined when determining succession rights. However, Turkish law governs the immovable property situated in Turkey and the relevant land registry procedures.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, an international <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/how-to-transfer-inherited-property-in-turkey\/\">inheritance matter<\/a> may require the examination of both Turkish law and the law of the deceased person&#8217;s country of nationality.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_What_Documents_Are_Required_from_Foreign_Heirs\"><\/span>4. What Documents Are Required from Foreign Heirs?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The documents required depend on the deceased person&#8217;s nationality, the heirs&#8217; family relationships, the country where the documents were issued and the assets involved.<\/p>\n<p>Commonly requested documents include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Death certificate of the deceased.<\/li>\n<li>Birth certificates establishing the relationship between the deceased and the heirs.<\/li>\n<li>Marriage certificate, where the surviving spouse is an heir.<\/li>\n<li>Divorce or adoption records, where relevant.<\/li>\n<li>Passports or identity documents of the heirs.<\/li>\n<li>Family register or other official records identifying family relationships.<\/li>\n<li>Will or inheritance agreement, if applicable.<\/li>\n<li>Documents establishing the applicable foreign inheritance law, where necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The court may request additional evidence depending on the circumstances.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apostille_and_Certified_Turkish_Translation\"><\/span>Apostille and Certified Turkish Translation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Documents issued by foreign authorities generally need to be authenticated before they can be used in Turkish <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/foreigner-dies-owning-property-in-turkey\/\">legal proceedings<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the issuing country and applicable international agreements, this may involve:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An apostille under the Hague Apostille Convention; or<\/li>\n<li>Consular legalisation or another applicable authentication procedure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The documents must also be translated into Turkish in accordance with the requirements of the relevant Turkish authority or court.<\/p>\n<p>It is particularly important to ensure that names, dates of birth, family relationships and other personal details are consistent across all documents. Differences in spelling, transliteration or surname changes can cause delays and lead to requests for additional evidence.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Can_You_Use_a_Foreign_Certificate_of_Inheritance_in_Turkey\"><\/span>5. Can You Use a Foreign Certificate of Inheritance in Turkey?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/foreigner-dies-owning-property-in-turkey\/\">certificate of inheritance<\/a> or probate document issued by a foreign authority is not automatically sufficient to transfer assets in Turkey.<\/p>\n<p>For Turkish land registry transactions, foreign heirs will generally need a Turkish certificate of inheritance or another legally sufficient Turkish court decision, depending on the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign probate documents and inheritance records can nevertheless be important evidence. They may help establish the family relationships, the deceased person&#8217;s legal status and the applicable foreign inheritance rules.<\/p>\n<p>Whether a particular foreign document can be used directly, or whether a separate Turkish court procedure is necessary, must be assessed according to the nature of the document and the asset concerned.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Can_You_Obtain_a_Certificate_of_Inheritance_Without_Travelling_to_Turkey\"><\/span>6. Can You Obtain a Certificate of Inheritance Without Travelling to Turkey?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In many cases, yes.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign heirs do not necessarily need to travel to Turkey personally to initiate and conduct inheritance proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>They may appoint a Turkish lawyer through a properly issued power of attorney. The power of attorney can generally be arranged through a Turkish consulate abroad or before a competent foreign notary, subject to the applicable authentication and translation requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The authority granted should cover the specific <a href=\"https:\/\/eglegal.net\/en\/foreigner-dies-owning-property-in-turkey\/\">legal procedures<\/a> required, including applying for a certificate of inheritance and representing the heir before the relevant Turkish authorities.<\/p>\n<p>This arrangement can be particularly useful for heirs living in the United Kingdom, Germany, the United States and other countries who need to deal with assets in Turkey.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_What_Happens_After_Obtaining_the_Certificate_of_Inheritance\"><\/span>7. What Happens After Obtaining the Certificate of Inheritance?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Obtaining the certificate is often only the first stage of the inheritance process.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the assets forming part of the estate, further procedures may be required.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Transferring_inherited_real_estate\"><\/span>Transferring inherited real estate<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Where the deceased owned property in Turkey, the heirs generally need to complete the inheritance registration procedures before the relevant Land Registry Directorate (<em>Tapu M\u00fcd\u00fcrl\u00fc\u011f\u00fc<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>The title deed records must be updated to reflect the heirs&#8217; ownership rights and shares.<\/p>\n<p>Foreign heirs should also be aware that inheritance rights and the ability to retain a particular property are separate legal questions. Restrictions applicable to foreign ownership of real estate may need to be examined in certain cases.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Claiming_inherited_bank_accounts\"><\/span>Claiming inherited bank accounts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Where the deceased held bank accounts or deposits in Turkey, the heirs must submit the required inheritance documents to the relevant bank.<\/p>\n<p>The bank may request the Turkish certificate of inheritance, identity documents, tax-related documents and other supporting information before releasing the funds.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Selling_inherited_property\"><\/span>Selling inherited property<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Once the necessary inheritance and title deed procedures have been completed, the heirs may consider selling the inherited property.<\/p>\n<p>Where several heirs own the property jointly, their respective rights and the legal requirements for the sale must be examined.
