Who can apply for Turkish citizenship?
The migration policy in the Republic of Turkey is now quite loyal. However, the competent services pay special attention to the verification of documents and their identity submitted by applicants for a new passport. Be prepared for any information, signatures and seals that require careful verification. However, such a thorough verification process does not depend on the reasons for providing information about citizenship.
