Scope

Immigration law practice is primarily carried out within the framework of Law No. 6458 on Foreigners and International Protection and the regulations issued under it. Procedures are followed before Provincial Directorates of Migration Management and other relevant administrative authorities.

Legal follow-up may cover the entire file, from document preparation prior to application to objections and litigation against administrative decisions.

Common Situations

Residence Permit Refusal or Extension Issues

In the event of refusal of short-term, family, or student residence permit applications, or unresolved extension requests, administrative objection remedies are assessed.

Deportation Decision

For individuals subject to a deportation decision, the notification of the decision, administrative custody, and judicial appeal periods are of critical importance.

International Protection Application

Applications by individuals claiming a risk of serious harm upon return to their country require legal follow-up during the interview and assessment stages.

Acquisition of Turkish Citizenship

Citizenship applications, whether through exceptional means or the standard route based on residence duration, require assessment of document and procedural compliance.

How the Process Works

  1. Case Assessment

    The current residence/application status and any notified decisions are reviewed.

  2. Deadline Tracking

    Objection and litigation deadlines are identified, and priorities are set to avoid missing them.

  3. Application or Objection

    The necessary application, objection, or lawsuit petition is submitted to the relevant administrative authority or court.

  4. Follow-up and Conclusion

    The file is followed until the process concludes, with regular updates shared throughout.
