Turkish Citizenship Compared

Hey guys! Here's a brief on Turkish citizenship by investment program, by route of real estate investment, and a comparison with similar CIB programs across the globe. Why are we discussing Turkey?! Well, firstly because it's my area of specialty. Secondly, almost all citizenship by investment programs require you to buy real estate that has been pre-approved by the government, except for Turkey. Here is where the questions arise, don't they? Take a look for more detail.

Hello Aladdin, thanks for your videos. As usual they are very informative and I enjoy very much watching them! Have you considered Bulgaria as an option for acquiring citizenship by investment? It not only gives you an excellent entry point for the whole EU and Schengen zone, it’s the hidden tax haven for Europe with the lowest tax rates across Europe, but it also provides an updated fast-track option for citizenship which is one of the best in Europe, after Turkey of course. I think that it’s definitely worth considering it!

Can you elaborate on the health issues.

However, on the negative side 5 years ago $1 was equal to 2.93 Turkish Lira and today $1 equals 8.29 Turkish Lira. That is a devaluation of Turkish Lira by nearly 3 times or 300%. So unless if someone bought Turkish Real Estate 5 years ago and the property appreciated 3 times the purchasing price, they would end up with a loss.

[@waseemn8393]

That's a very good point. If you sell the real estate before 5 year then including the capital gain taxes you the property need to appreciate for 322% just to breakeven.

[@guerreirodaliberdade7800]

Numbers prove this is an amazing citizenship by investment deal, perhaps the best in the world today. It’s not only the Passport. Turkish real estate by itself is amazing and offers real VALUE FOR MONEY because of the exchange rate, unlike EU countries. Türkiye is a big country with a large, diversified, growing GDP with great export potential, unlike other buy-passport options such as Bulgaria, Greece that are small, stagnant economies with limited potential. All in all it’s probably the best such deal in the world now. Hope the threshold amount doesn’t go up too much.

Not true. I live in Australia and considering getting my second citizenship. Aussies are not that nice, there are many idiots here. Good ones are exceptionally good, maybe 2% of the population, but the horrible ones are many, like 20-30%. The rest of them are predisposed to being bad. What I mean by bad is they perceive (and treat) the natives as though they're sub-humans. If you live there long enough you will be able to know that's true. This negative perception is also towards non-white Aussies who were born there (or migrated there).

Obtaining a Schengen or US visa is not guaranteed, and most Turkish people cannot get it at all. If you can get it, it means you could get it with a Pakistani passport as well. It's not about your passport, it's about you. As for the UK, the UK is not part to the Ankara Agreement any longer, so forget about it.
