Frequently Asked Questions on Turkish Lease Law

Is the 25% rent increase ceiling still in effect in Turkey?

No. The temporary statutory cap that limited residential rent increases to 25% expired on July 2, 2024. For all renewals after July 2, 2024, the statutory maximum cap for both residential and commercial leases is the 12-Month Average CPI (TÜFE).

What happens if our rental agreement specifies a rate higher than CPI?

Under Article 344 and 346 of the Turkish Code of Obligations, any contractual clause imposing a rate higher than the 12-month average CPI is legally void to the extent of the excess. The tenant is only legally required to pay up to the 12-month average CPI.

When can a landlord file a rent determination lawsuit for market rate?

Pursuant to Article 344/3, once 5 years have elapsed from the commencement of the lease, either party can initiate a rent determination lawsuit (Kira Tespit Davası) to reset the rent to current market comparables.

How can a landlord evict a long-term tenant under the 10-year rule?

Under Article 347, upon the completion of 1 initial year plus 10 extension years (11 years total), the landlord may terminate the lease without demonstrating any specific reason, provided they serve a formal notarized notice at least 3 months prior to the end of the renewal year.
