Commercial Lease Termination
"How can a commercial lease be terminated in Turkey?"
Quick Answer
Termination of a roofed commercial lease depends on the party and legal ground. A landlord cannot generally terminate solely because a fixed term ends; statutory need, default and extension-period routes have separate conditions. Check notices, service dates and mandatory mediation before proceedings.
Scope and Legal Distinctions
For roofed commercial premises, a landlord cannot generally end the lease solely because a fixed term expired. Statutory grounds such as need, default or specified extension-period rules have distinct conditions; the tenant's notice route is different.
What to Check in Practice
Review the original lease and extensions, rent history, notices and service dates. Assess any mandatory mediation before proceedings; do not assume one notice period fits every ground.
