Company & Compliance
A Turkish company, limited (LTD) or joint-stock (A.Ş.), incorporated remotely via power of attorney in two to four weeks.
What it is
We incorporate a Turkish operating company under your ownership, fully remotely. Most foreign-owned studios run on a Limited Şirket (LTD), the cheaper and faster vehicle that fits a single founder or a small group. Studios planning to raise external capital or run a clean cap-table for a future exit usually pick an Anonim Şirket (A.Ş.), the joint-stock equivalent with freely transferable registered shares and a board structure. We pick the right one on the discovery call, then handle every signature and filing on your side of the wire.
Vehicle choice
Both vehicles qualify for the 100% service-export exemption, the Tech Development Zone, and the R&D Centre regime. The choice is about governance, capital, and how cleanly your shares move on a raise.
Best for
Most foreign-owned studios. Single founder or a small group, no near-term raise.
Best for
Studios raising external capital or planning an exit. Investor-friendly cap-table mechanics.
How we do it
The only step that needs you is the apostilled power of attorney. Everything else happens in Istanbul under that one authorisation.
Structure and KYC call
On the discovery call we confirm LTD versus A.Ş., share allocation, and any KYC blockers, so the engagement letter is exact.
Power of attorney drafted
Our partner law firm drafts a bilingual POA scoped to incorporation, banking, and tax registration. You notarise and apostille it in your country and ship the original to Istanbul.
Articles of association
Articles are tuned for IP licensing, service exports, and downstream incentive eligibility. You review and approve in writing before filing.
MERSIS submission and trade-registry filing
The articles go through MERSIS, the electronic trade-registry system. The Trade Registry registers the company and issues the registration number.
Tax registration and activity certificate
Tax number issued by the Istanbul tax office, chamber of commerce registration completed, activity certificate produced for downstream use in banking, App Store, and counterparty contracts.
