Twenty years. Zero tax on foreign income.

Türkiye's Law No. 7582 grants new tax residents a 20-year exemption on qualifying foreign income and a flat 1% inheritance rate. Turkey20 pairs that opportunity with the finest homes on the Turkish Riviera, from the Bodrum peninsula to Kalkan.

Why Turkey20

A new tax regime deserves a serious guide

In June 2026 Türkiye enacted Law No. 7582, the most generous personal tax regime in the Mediterranean: two decades without Turkish income tax on qualifying foreign earnings, provided you become a tax resident and had no Turkish tax ties in the three years before. No annual lump sum, no minimum investment for the regime itself.

Most agencies sell you a villa. Turkey20 was built around the full decision: the right home, the residency that makes the exemption work and everything your property needs after the keys change hands. James Chapman has spent 30 years in international property. This is the market he chose to commit his name to.

The comparison

No other regime comes close

Italy charges a EUR 300,000 annual flat tax. Greece asks EUR 100,000 a year. Portugal closed its NHR scheme. Türkiye asks no lump sum at all: become a tax resident, meet the conditions and qualifying foreign income is exempt for twenty years.

Who we work with

Built for three kinds of buyer

Every client is different, but after thirty years the patterns are clear. Most of the people we help fit one of three profiles.

The entrepreneur

You have sold a business or run one that travels with you. You want a marina on your doorstep, a base within reach of your markets and a residency structure that makes the 20-year exemption work from day one.

The crypto-wealthy

Your wealth is liquid and digital. You want tax efficiency, a new-build home and a purchase route that converts digital assets into a Turkish title deed, cleanly and compliantly.

The retired business owner

The work is done. You want sea views, low maintenance, good healthcare within reach and a home that is looked after when you are away. Aftercare weighs as heavily as the address.

What clients value

Discretion first, results throughout

We came for the tax exemption and stayed for the way the whole move was handled. One conversation with James replaced months of our own research.

Family office principal, Northern Europe

The villa was never publicly listed. That is exactly the level of discretion we needed.

Entrepreneur, relocated from the Netherlands

The house was furnished, the pool serviced and the fridge full when we landed. That is what aftercare should mean.

Private investor, Germany

Client remarks paraphrased and anonymised for privacy.

After completion

The purchase is the beginning

Design, furnishing, pools, gardens, guests and rentals: one team keeps your property cared for and your season effortless.
