Step-by-Step Guide: Turkish ID Card & Passport Appointment After Citizenship Approval

Obtaining Turkish citizenship by investment is an exciting milestone. Upon receiving your Citizenship Approval Letter, you may book your Turkish ID card & Turkish passport appointment at the nearest Turkish Consulate General. These documents are essential to fully exercise your rights as a Turkish citizen.

Use the official consular portal to find the competent mission and its current appointment and document instructions.

At IGA Law Firm, we guide our clients through each stage of the process. Below is a simplified overview of how to book your Turkish ID card appointment and passport application via the Consulate system.
