If You Sell Your Real Estates Within 1 Year, You Will Pay VAT!

30.08.2017

Built offices and real estates will be exempted from VAT,
1- When they are sold to a company which do not gain income in Turkey for the first time,
2- On condition that its sale value should be paid as foreign currency brought from abroad!!!
3- By means of foreign real persons who do not reside in Turkey, an office whose registered office and headquarter are not in Turkey or a permanent representative,

The ones, who bought an office or a real estate by taking advantage of VAT exemption in Turkey previously, will not be able to sell their real estates 1 year.

If they sell their office or real estate within 1 year, the tax (VAT), which was not paid when it was bought, will be received.

The properties, which are transferred to the Treasury ownership because of a suit brought by the Treasury, among the ones zoned for construction and then sold by the municipalities,  will be again transferred to persons as free of charge.
