Kalkan Turkish Local News has published a useful guide for people with assets in Turkey - The KTLN Kalkan guide to making a will.

The Turkish word for a will is 'Vasiyet'.  Making a will is 'Vasiyet hazırlamak'.

In our new guide, which was prepared with the assistance of Kalkan lawyer, Kader Güneş, we provide a step by step guide for foreigners.

• the reasons why you should have a Turkish will;
• how to go about making one;
• choosing an executor;
• what happens upon death, and
• something about inheritance tax.

If you have any assets in Turkey, e.g. property or money in a Turkish bank, we recommend reading our guide.

It is a lengthy article, however we believe it is useful to explain the detail.  We hope you will find it of interest.

A link, (Kalkan Inheritance), can also be found in the list of useful articles shown on the KTLN home page.

KTLN would like to thank Kalkan solicitor, Kader Güneş, for her valuable advice on this subject.
