Is this investment officially approved for Turkish citizenship?
▼
Yes.
The investment is made into a government-approved and regulated fund that fully complies with Turkish Citizenship by Investment regulations.
Once completed, an official eligibility certificate is issued, allowing the citizenship application to proceed.
Do I need to travel to Turkey during the process?
▼
Only once.
A short visit (typically 1–2 days) is required for biometric data submission.
All other steps — including bank account opening, investment, and legal procedures — can be handled remotely via Power of Attorney.
How long does the entire process take?
▼
Typically 6 to 8 months.
Timeline:
• Bank account & investment setup: 1–2 weeks
• Residence permit: 1–2 weeks
• Citizenship processing: 6–8 months
The process is structured for efficiency and speed.
Can my family also obtain citizenship?
▼
Yes.
The investment covers:
• Spouse
• Children under 18
All family members receive full Turkish citizenship rights.
What happens to my money during the 3-year period?
▼
Your capital is invested into a professionally managed gold-focused fund.
It remains fully allocated and actively managed throughout the mandatory 3-year holding period.
Can I withdraw my investment earlier?
▼
No.
The 3-year holding period is a strict legal requirement.
Early withdrawal would result in loss of eligibility for citizenship.
What happens after 3 years?
▼
After the holding period:
• You can exit the investment
• Withdraw your capital
• Realize any profits
The structure is designed with a clear and defined exit strategy.
What taxes apply to this investment?
▼
• Approximately 15% capital gains tax
• Applied only on profit
• No tax on initial capital
Tax is paid at the time of exit.
Is the return guaranteed?
▼
No.
This is an investment, not a fixed-income product.
However:
• Gold has historically performed strongly
• The fund has delivered solid USD-based returns in past cycles
The strategy focuses on capital preservation and upside potential.
Can I lose money?
▼
Yes, like any financial investment.
Risks include:
• Gold price fluctuations
• Market volatility
• Fund performance variation
Compared to real estate, risks are more transparent and measurable.
Why is gold used in this structure?
▼
Gold acts as:
• An inflation hedge
• A store of value
• A globally recognized monetary asset
It is widely used by central banks and institutional investors.
Is currency conversion (USD → TRY) a risk?
▼
A temporary conversion step is required by regulation.
However, the investment reflects USD-based performance.
Returns are aligned with global market dynamics rather than Turkish Lira.
How does this compare to real estate investment?
▼
Real Estate:
• Illiquid
• Requires management
• Location-dependent
Gold Fund:
• Liquid (after 3 years)
• Fully managed
• Globally priced asset
More efficient for many investors.
Who is this investment suitable for?
▼
Ideal for:
• High-net-worth individuals
• Investors seeking diversification
• Clients preferring financial instruments
• Those targeting both citizenship and investment returns
Is this option widely available?
▼
No.
This is not a mass-market product.
It is limited in access and typically introduced through private channels.
Why is this a strategic opportunity right now?
▼
• Strong gold positioning in current macro cycle
• Ongoing global inflation
• Central bank gold accumulation
Combined with low market awareness, this creates a first-mover advantage.
