Türkiye CANCELS Additional Increase in Residence Permit Fees; 2026 Tariff Schedule Remains in Force
Türkiye has officially withdrawn the additional increase in residence permit fees that was expected to take effect after May 1.
Following a comprehensive review by the Ministry of Interior, the higher tariff was reversed. Accordingly, the fee schedule published in the Official Gazette dated Dec. 31, 2025 (Issue No. 33124), effective Jan. 1, 2026, remains fully in force.
Residence permit fees continue to be calculated based on nationality in line with reciprocity principles and bilateral arrangements.
For the majority of world countries not subject to special arrangements, the applicable structure remains:
• First month: USD 25
• Each additional month: USD 5
(Click the link to see the full list of countries and detailed breakdown.)
All application and card issuance fees remain unchanged under the January 2026 framework.
Applicants are advised to calculate total payable amounts based on their nationality and intended duration of stay.

Notarized Sponsorship (Taahütname) Letters Banned in Istanbul – 51 Detained, 441 Permits Cancelled
After 51 people were detained over an alleged fake residence permit network, Istanbul authorities stopped accepting notarized sponsorship letters for address registration and residence permit applications. This method, once widely used to prove accommodation, is no longer valid in Istanbul.
Meanwhile, the Directorate of Migration Management has already cancelled 441 residence permits of individuals found not living at their registered addresses. Authorities are now reviewing applications submitted across Türkiye in the last six months, putting thousands of permits at potential risk.
