A residence permit is an official document issued by a country's government that authorizes foreign nationals to legally reside within its territory for a specified period. It is typically required for stays exceeding the duration allowed by a standard visa or visa-exempt entry and is necessary for purposes such as work, study, or long-term residency.

To obtain a residence permit, submit your application to the local immigration office or through the government’s official online portal (if available). Required documents typically include a valid passport, proof of financial stability, accommodation details, and a completed application form. Processing times and specific requirements may vary by country—contact your nearest immigration office or visit the government’s official immigration website for up-to-date guidelines.

Yes, refugees and subsidiary protection status holders in Turkey can legally work without a separate work permit.

This applies to both dependent (employee) and independent (self-employed) work arrangements. Ensure your identity document is valid and up-to-date to confirm your eligibility.
