Understanding Foreign Law

Foreign law encompasses the legal framework designed to protect the rights of individuals seeking legal status and entitlements in foreign jurisdictions. It primarily governs the legal status of individuals residing or temporarily staying in a country where they lack citizenship. Within this domain, consultancy services are offered to individuals seeking residency permits or intending to reside in a foreign country. Seeking guidance from proficient legal counsel during this process can significantly streamline the application procedure and mitigate the risk of rights forfeiture.

Distinguishing Residency and Residency Consultancy Services

Residency permits confer upon foreigners the right to reside in Turkey for specified durations, while residency consultancy services assist individuals in navigating the legal intricacies of residing and working in Turkey. While residency permits are typically issued for extended periods, they may be either short or long-term, unlike residency permits. While residency permits are usually granted for reasons such as employment, education, or family reunification, residency permits have a broader scope. While a residency permit holder can reside in Turkey for a predetermined period, a residency permit holder has the right to stay and work in the country.
