Property Ownership title in Turkey

Turkey's title deed is called Tapu, which is very similar to that of other countries. It is a formal and legal document proving property rights for real estate. The title deeds are issued in Turkey, registered and archived by the employees of the Directorate General of the Land Registry and the Directorate General of Survey.

The title deed includes information such as the owner's name, photograph, and property details. And be sure to have a seal on the property deed in Turkey at the bottom and middle of the bond to be legal. The presence of the image is not mandatory and is in the upper right hand corner.

More than one person can own the same property. In this case, the relevant shares are displayed on the title deed.
