Why trust a third party to help you set up a company in Turkey?

 

To set up a company in Turkey, whether it be a joint stock company, a limited liability company, a new branch for your business, a liaison service or to set up independent audit services, the administrative obligations that come with all new business ventures are far from insignificant. Azkan Group can provide foreign investors with all the necessary support to ensure all legal requirements are met and their new structure fully complies with Turkish legal standards.

Setting up a company in Turkey becomes much simpler when you can receive all the assistance necessary to help you pick the appropriate official status, which would of course vary based on the industry, the tax advantages you are looking to secure, the share capital, etc. Our aim is not only to help you set up a company in Turkey, but also to make sure your operational efficiency is enhanced.

Proper finance and accounting management is a pre-requisite if you wish to set up a company in Turkey, which we, at Azkan Group, include in the set of services we provide to foreigners who wish to outsource certain aspects of their activities. VAT, balance sheets, taxes, annual reports, payroll… every aspect of your financial obligations is covered so you can focus on developing your business without worrying about these technical matters.
