Annual Property Taxes in Turkey

The property tax on duplexes and villas, which are defined as luxurious goods are calculated differently and in effect, we can expect that the tax rate will be double compared to one-level-flats of the same metric area. The yearly tax is paid in two installments i.e. the first installment is paid between March and May, the second before the end of November but of course you are allowed to pay all tax at once in the first half of the year.
Retired Turkish citizens who own just one property in Turkey, are registered in the area where the property is situated and stay there permanently are exempted from the payment.
