Why Apostille Documents for Turkey
If you need to use a UK document in Turkey for residency, marriage, property purchase or business setup, it will need an Apostille certificate. DWP State Pension letters, birth and marriage certificates, Companies House documents and ACRO checks are the most commonly apostilled UK documents for Turkish use, especially among British retirees and expat investors.
Turkey is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, with the Convention having entered into force in 1985. Once your UK document has been apostilled by the FCDO, no further attestation at the Turkish Embassy or Consulate is needed for the document to be accepted by Turkish authorities.
