Notarization Requirements
"When is notarization required for legal documents in Turkey?"
Quick Answer
Notarization is required for powers of attorney, real estate transactions, corporate resolutions, and certain contracts. Foreign documents need apostille or legalization.
Scope and Legal Distinctions
Notarial certification may authenticate a signature or create a formal instrument, depending on the act. It does not by itself confirm every legal or commercial statement in the document.
What to Check in Practice
Ask the receiving authority which notarial form is required; check signatory authority, original documents and any apostille or translation requirement separately.
