To continuously deliver information and benefit to its clients inside and outside Turkey, Dinar Property Company, headquartered in the city of Istanbul, is trying to answer, through materials and reports published on its official website, or on its accounts on social media platforms; about all questions related to the real estate and tourism sector and the necessary documents to complete any transaction in these two sectors and other related sectors.

In this article, Dinar Property will provide a detailed explanation of the “tax number”, the process for extracting it, in addition to a set of tips on using this number.

In this regard, the lawyer, “Majd Tabaa”, a real estate consultant who resides in Istanbul, told Dinar Property: “Extracting the tax number is very easy from any tax department in Turkey, and requires the person’s presence in order to fill out the required forms and papers. Which includes information such as the passport number, the residence address, and signature, and after it is handed over to the concerned employee, the tax number is obtained,” stressing that “the procedures of extracting the tax number are very fast and only takes a few minutes.”

He added, “In the event of losing the tax number, the Tax Department is asked to retrieve the number again, and all this is done easily and quickly.”

Dinar Property assures its clients that “extracting the tax number in Turkey does not require a residence permit, as it is sufficient to have a passport or a copy of a rental contract notarized by the notary.”

“Dinar Property” draws attention to the fact that those whose passports have expired, and those who do not have a document that proves their residential address in detail, are not entitled to obtain a “tax number”.
