Evacuation in Turkey: Processes and Your Rights

As Karanfiloğlu Law and Mediation, we have prepared this article, which aims to provide information about house eviction processes and the rights of tenants and landlords in Turkey. Evacuation is a common occurrence in rental properties, and having the right information will help you complete the process quickly and hassle-free.

Evacuation Process

The house eviction process in Turkey begins when the lease agreement expires or is terminated. Tenants must give written notice to the landlord if they want to vacate before the contract expires. Landlords, on the other hand, must act according to legal terms and conditions when they want to evict tenants.

Justified Reasons for Eviction

The justifiable reasons for house evacuation in Turkey are:

  • Tenant’s persistent failure to pay rent
  • Tenant’s use of the property in violation of the contract
  • The owner needs housing for himself, his spouse, descendants or superiors
  • Owner wants to rebuild or substantially repair the property

Warning and Litigation

If the tenant does not comply with the landlord’s eviction request, the landlord can issue a warning to the tenant. The notice must include the time period for the tenant’s eviction and the reason for the eviction. If the tenant is not evicted at the end of the warning period, the landlord can file an eviction lawsuit by applying to the Enforcement Office.

Enforcement Office and Evacuation Decision

The Enforcement Office, after considering the eviction case, announces its decision. If the Enforcement Office finds the landlord’s claim justified, it decides to evacuate and the tenant must be evicted within the specified time. If the tenant is not evicted within this period, the Enforcement Office carries out a forced eviction.
