Thank you so much for the information, Bery! I've been to Turkey four times as a tourist and would love to live there, maybe for a while, maybe for the whole life. Since last year I've been studying Turkish to really get involved in the culture. Salaries are not high as in some other countries but the quality of life is very good and the experience of living there is priceless. I'm a Brazilian who has already lived in Germany, have Spanish citizenship but the country that really captured my heart is Turkey. Greetings from Brazil!
Have you visited Greece? Its very close in culture (if not identical) and the economy is better with EU citizenship. If you buy properties worth 200.000€, you get instant citizenship.
Turkey is much better. Turkish is easier to learn (it uses similar alphabet as English), cost of living is lower, people are friendlier, there's more variety, and more growth in future (unlike Greece).
@@aliasgharkhoyee8911 I agree with you... altough turkish leanguage seems to be a hell to learn!... another advantage is that they are not so dependant from EU like Greece... they are more free... if you see what I mean...
@@questmarq7901 sorry buddy, been in Greece once, and can say for sure that these two countries are incomparable... you can see/do/experience soooo much more in Turkey than in Greece... and people in Turkey are much more warm and friendlier as well... so... Turkey for sure!
During August of 2019 I travelled to Istanbul and Bodrum with my wife for 14 days total. I liked Istanbul, but absolutely fell in love with Bodrum. The people, culture, history and food left such an impression that I returned to Bodrum during October of 2020, by myself, for 21 days to study the town so that I can make a move and live there. Living in California is great but Bodrum is so much nicer. I am now in the process of getting everything ready to actually make the move. Can't wait! Thank you for this video and the information provided. çok teşekkür ederim
Thats awesome. If u dont mind sharing how u verified the agents u bought through and any useful property or agent links other than the government website.
wow, I am a “poor” American citizen living in New York / California for most of my life. After seeing this video and costs you listed, I am now convinced that I would be a very wealthy Turkish citizen if I convert my USD to TL 😂😭. Thankyou for the information! I have a new positive outlook on life. time to move and live like a king in Istanbul 💰😎💰📈
Wow! But NY and CA are very expensive to live even in the USA living standards 😀 I love CA btw! If you are convinced that Turkey would be a great place to start over again, try it! Just make sure not to have any debts in your home country’s currency because then exchanging TL into USD to pay them will be a big pain 😬 But I don’t know, if you already own a house/flat there, rent it and that money you can have it monthly in USD to use here! Wowww that would be amazing! In my case, I’m also renting my home in Mexico and after paying my loan to the Mexican bank I still get good money to use here.
You would be rich here. I am amazed at how well you can live here for. I was born in California, most of my adult life in AZ which is cheaper, and I was stunned at the prices here. Not to mention the people and how nice some of them can be. And when I work, I make more than avg household income in the U.S. and CA or NY I would never live in due to the cost.
You would enjoy every luxurious life in Turkey. I would suggest that you visit Turkey to get a "feel for it"... Travel a bit. Go south and see Fethiye, Antalya, Analya, Bodrum... you could live in a beautiful apartment overlooking the Aegean sea or the Mediterranean, and these places are even cheaper than Istanbul.
Hi Bery: I congratulate you for your videos and for all the work that you do to make and publish them, together with your husband. This is a valuable contribution to get to know Turkey and to help travelers who are going to visit that interesting and beautiful country. Carry on with enthusiasm and dedication. You are doing very well.
Not all are happy 🤣🤷🏻♀️ They will always find a “reason” to dislike something, as far the video is useful for most of you I feel happy and successful 💪🏻
Depending on the channel, either a bot will dislike or it's simply someone saying not interested in the content that is in their main feed. UA-cam needs to change that.
Thank you so much for this really well done video! I appreciate how open you were about your own costs and that you listed everything so transparent. This video is very very helpful! It’s gold! Thank you!!
This is one of the best and most comprehensive video you were brutal honest with the explanation. I'll be there in September looking forward to see this country and meet new good people like you Stay blessed
Took me months. Started in August and just got my card last month. I was going to do everything myself, but I went through a third party just to make my fiancee happy and less worried, which wasn't smart. My plan was to apply at the end of Sept since I moved here in July since you had 90 days on your visa and once you file, you are not here illegally. I just didn't know it would take so long.
Yeah, this info is pretty accurate, and the prices are all the same as I have faced here in Istanbul (Sisli) too. With the low currency it's a good time to buy/invest here (with foreign currency), but not so good for selling. If the currency goes back to where it was even a year or two ago (not to mention five years ago) then you'd make some good profit (or some significant gains with your salary in Turkish lira). The thing is, we don't know what will happen! But at the moment, foreign retirees here are at a big win.
UPDATE DECEMBER 2021: 1 USD was 7.5 lira when we recorded this video. Right now 1 USD is 13 lira. Prices for rents are doubled in Turkish Liras. When you consider in USD, it is almost the same price in USD. Hey guys! I Hope this general guide about living in Turkey helps you.

this is a very good, thorough video! I appreciate it. I wanted to live in Turkey at one time, but I feel like there are too many people moving there now. I've been to Istanbul and absolutely loved it. Not sure I'd like to live there with so many people moving there now lol
Hey I hope you answer my questions ?? Is turkey really a safe country to move and work and start a new life as because I hear about civil unrest and all ? What about the constant earthquakes how’s it like ??? What is approx cost of living according to you experience ?? Really looking forward for answers
@@BeryIstanbulTips thanks very good information I’m thinking to move Istanbul from uk by the way what is your native language you speak very well English
A lot of necessary information. I think it could be the most difficult to find job for me. Now I work as customer service specialist with Polish and English languages. I think can be more difficult find such of the job in Turkey. However I am not plan to moving but I wish to visit this country again and of course lovely Istanbul. All the best for you Bery. Greetings and thanks for this video 😍😊
Interesting tips and Information (bilgi).. Useful for those who r interested in settling at Turkey. Please do little information on Izmir particularly Cesme area and jobs around those place for English speaking expats.🙏 Turkey is a very beautiful country. I have seen coastal Izmir through many dizis that I watched.
New subscriber because you do an excellent job at explaining essential information. You are also very beautiful! The salary vs. cost of living for expats is great. The US and Canada are extremely expensive countries to live in and most people are drowning in debt. Nobody has health insurance in the US at their jobs, either.
Thank you bery for this video, however if you have a chance to do a presentation about (US citizens planning to retire in turkey). Some tricks & tips about collecting the money there (ATMs, Banks...) also if you can recommend good places for american expats that would be very helpful. Thanks a lot
Great video. Very informative! I am thinking of buying a flat in Istanbul since I am now retired and would like to spend more time in Turkey. Can you please shed some light on prices (in general terms) in Istanbul? Location/area is important since I will be using mostly public transportation for getting around the city. Teşükkür ederim
@@930tube 25 yrs ago or so if u marry a Turkish citizen you get ur citizenship on the spot But once Turkey became known and flooded I don't know what the law is nowadays. I m out of Turkey 38 yrs
Hi Bery how are you doing,we are freezing and cold in Boston and living with travel restrictions........your information is very helpful and looking forward to visit Turkey sometimes this year.....take care.
Many thanks for this really informative video. Can you please also advise if there is a Turkish Government website, where we can check if a particular estate agent is registered or not?
@@BeryIstanbulTips Yes, please kindly keep us posted, as we are seriously exploring a move to Turkey. And, once again thanks for all the information supplied to date through your channel.
@@BeryIstanbulTips Great video! How is the current real estate? Can one survive in Istanbul with rental income if purchased a flat in areas such as Kadikoy, Atasehir, Kartal, or Beylikduzu? How much rent can be expected from a 1+1 or 2+1 in these areas and is there demand post covid?
Great information, thank you so much. One question on the rental agreement for the tourist residence permit. Does it need to be for the whole time you plan to be there or can it be for the time of the tourist visa in case you don't get approved?
Thank you or the information and the time you put into making the video. I am wondering if you could shed light on if it is really difficult for expats to obtain jobs outside of teaching? I read on a website that foreigners are seldom hired and was wondering if this is really true. If so, it may take longer for us to immigrate because we will need to be employed before arriving.
@@BeryIstanbulTips it was really verrrryyyy useful hope will be more videooosss like that Specially in today's video i like where to stay if ever we move to Turkey n where to process the TRC
Thank you so much for the information! You mentioned that we will have to fill out a declaration form ( for obtaining residency) to show that we have enough income to live in Turkey. Will they ask us to show bank records? If so, can you give an idea of how much money will we be required to have in our account? For myself, I intend to go there with 3 young children, ages 12 and under.. Thank you for any info you are able to offer me.
Hi Marisa, have you made the move yet? I'm also considering it. I'll check out their immigration website and let you know if I find any info regarding that. All the very best
How hard is it to get citizenship in Turkey? How long do you need to to stay in the country per year if you get residency? How many years need to hold residency visa? Langiage requirements? Dual citizenship allowed? Will 2.5k usd per month enough for a family of 4 to live off in Turkey? No intention to work ever again.
2.5k would make u live like an emperor there. U only need 250 USD per month to live. Then u could increase or decrease it based on whether u own ur place or paying rent and what kind of outside expenses u do.
My husband and I are entering with our tourist visa to find a fertility doctor then changing to a medical visa. We also want residency and possibly to buy a permanent place. Our city of interest in Antalya Alanya. Any advice you can give? I am so afraid of being taken advantage of specially with finding a place to rent.
Helpful info. I've a question. If i buy a new cell phone from Turkcell along with monthly user package & return to my home country & keep settling the bills through internet banking. Do U think my Turkcell number going to be Active & Valid throughout the year ?
Yes you can keep phone number active if you continue to pay it. If you use mounthly bill agreement you can define your credit card to auto pay from company page. If you use cash loading credits max once in each 3 months you have to load money to your account to keep active your phone.
Hola Bery! Muy buen video. Te quería preguntar, el requisito de la prueba de fondos suficientes, de qué se trata? Una copia de tu cuenta bancaria en México? Hay un mínimo de dinero que hay que tener allí? Gracias!
I speak three languages and I am interpreter , working health tourism do I have to speak Turkish in order to interpreter .I love your channel. Thank you
Thank you for watching! Yes! Is possible doing that, is a special process for that purpose but it is possible, many also have opened businesses here :) I don’t know the process but I know it can be done 🤗
Basically a foreigner could earn enough to pay rent and groceries. If he has no expenses back in home home country and some investment income or liquid savings it can be a good economic decision.
We have some new friends who live in turkey. We're learning about the culture. The residency permits, are they for everyone even permanent and natural born residents? You noted needing a rental agreement. Does everyone rent? Does anyone own their property?
Izmir big city and most developed and good climate Antalya big city and developed and touristy but very muggy summers Bodrum small party city of welloffs Fethiye small lovely city on the Mediterranean perfect for retirement
Very informative, thank you! Are there any other cities you reccomend to get the residency permit faster? And do you have to be renting in that city? Would AirbnB qualify?
Hi! You can get the residence permit faster in smaller cities BUT you must live there and have a flat rental contract. You cannot live for example in Istanbul and apply for the ikamet (residence permit) in Izmir. Not sure if airbnb is suitable to qualify as before since also they ask some papers from the owners such as TAPU and other things, those things changed some years ago.
Hi! For the turist ikamat - what document exactly is the one to provide stating financial capacity? Can I apply through a Airbnb contract? Is the process faster during winter season?
May I ask you about the situation of therapists? I am searching a psychotherapy network in Turkey esp. in Istanbul. As a Therapist I would love to travel to Istanbul several times in a year to work there with German speaking people. Do you think there is a possibility? Can you recommend me a contact?

Yes you can keep phone number active if you continue to pay it. If you use mounthly bill agreement you can define your credit card to auto pay from company page. If you use cash loading credits max once in each 3 months you have to load money to your account to keep active your phone.
Bery!we love your info. From Pak.
Realmente me gustó mucho tu video, muy informativo 👏🏻👏🏻
Hola Bery! Muy buen video. Te quería preguntar, el requisito de la prueba de fondos suficientes, de qué se trata? Una copia de tu cuenta bancaria en México? Hay un mínimo de dinero que hay que tener allí? Gracias!

Прекрасний Стамбул 🇹🇷😍🙏

Best video available on this topic. Is it possible for expats to start a business in Turkey?
Thank you for watching! Yes! Is possible doing that, is a special process for that purpose but it is possible, many also have opened businesses here :)
I don’t know the process but I know it can be done 🤗
Good information
Very informative , Good job 👍
Thank you!
Basically a foreigner could earn enough to pay rent and groceries. If he has no expenses back in home home country and some investment income or liquid savings it can be a good economic decision.
Thanks for your hard work
My pleasure!
Your video is excellent.
Thank you!😊
Nice informative vlog. Pls make video on buying property from genuine parties.
We have some new friends who live in turkey. We're learning about the culture. The residency permits, are they for everyone even permanent and natural born residents? You noted needing a rental agreement. Does everyone rent? Does anyone own their property?
My wife and I are travelling to Turkey soon. Which 3 of these 4 cities (Antalya, Bodrum, Fethiye and Izmir) are the nicest to live?
Bodrum ,Izmir
Izmir big city and most developed and good climate
Antalya big city and developed and touristy but very muggy summers
Bodrum small party city of welloffs
Fethiye small lovely city on the Mediterranean perfect for retirement
Hello berry. Does turkish language is compulsory before moving to turkey. And from where we can learn this?
Very informative, thank you! Are there any other cities you reccomend to get the residency permit faster? And do you have to be renting in that city? Would AirbnB qualify?
This is a good question. It should be answered
Hi! You can get the residence permit faster in smaller cities BUT you must live there and have a flat rental contract. You cannot live for example in Istanbul and apply for the ikamet (residence permit) in Izmir.
Not sure if airbnb is suitable to qualify as before since also they ask some papers from the owners such as TAPU and other things, those things changed some years ago.
Hi! For the turist ikamat - what document exactly is the one to provide stating financial capacity? Can I apply through a Airbnb contract? Is the process faster during winter season?
best video!
May I ask you about the situation of therapists? I am searching a psychotherapy network in Turkey esp. in Istanbul. As a Therapist I would love to travel to Istanbul several times in a year to work there with German speaking people. Do you think there is a possibility? Can you recommend me a contact?
U should contact therapy clinics and mention your German specialty
