HOW TO APPLY FOR EXTENDED RESIDENCE PERMIT?

According to the Law on Foreigners and International Protection (YUKK) numbered 6458, residence permit refers to the permit issued to stay in Turkey. This permit, issued by the competent authorities, gives the foreigner the right to live in our country for a certain period of time and in a certain place.

You have received your residence permit and need to extend it as it expires. What should you do in this situation?

Applications for extension are made sixty days before the expiration of the residence permit and in any case before the expiry of the residence permit . An application document is given to those who apply to extend their residence permit. Even if their residence permit period has expired, these foreigners can reside in Turkey with this document until a decision is made about them.

APPLICATIONS FOR EXTENDED RESIDENCE MUST BE MADE WITHIN THE LAST 60 DAYS BEFORE YOUR RESIDENCY ENDS.

For example; Anyone whose residence permit has expired on 30.05.2021 can apply for an extension after 30.03.2021, that is, within the last 60 days.
