What is the property tax rate in Türkiye?
Short answer
The annual property tax rate is 0.1% for homes, 0.2% for workplaces, 0.3% for building plots and 0.1% for land. Within metropolitan municipality boundaries these rates are doubled.
Details
- The tax is calculated on the property's tax value recorded by the municipality, not on the sale price.
- It is paid in two equal instalments: the first in March, April or May, the second in November.
- The owner pays the tax; the tenant does not.
Example
A home in a metropolitan municipality with a tax value of 2,000,000 TL pays 4,000 TL a year at 0.2%.
Legal basis
- Property Tax Law No. 1319, Articles 8, 18 and 30
