WHAT İS AN PERMANENT WORK PERMİT

It is a work permit that is issued on behalf of a foreigner without being affiliated to an employer and gives the foreigner the right to work and reside in Turkey indefinitely. Foreigners who have a long-term residence permit or a legal work permit for at least eight years in Turkey may apply for an permanent work permit. However, the foreigner's fulfilment of the application conditions does not provide the foreigner with an absolute right to be granted an permanent work permit. Permanent work permit documents are renewed at the end of every five years as of the start date of the work permit. The application for renewal shall be made within six months before the expiry of the five-year period from the start date of the permanent work permit and in any case before the expiry date.
