A new regulation gives joint-stock and limited companies until December 31, 2027, to meet the revised minimum capital requirements.

Key takeaways

  • Companies have until December 31, 2027, to meet the revised minimum capital requirements.
  • The previous deadline was December 31, 2026.

Turkish joint-stock and limited companies now have until December 31, 2027, to raise their capital to the revised legal minimums. The deadline was extended from December 31, 2026, under a Trade Ministry regulation published in the Official Gazette.

The extension covers limited companies below the legal minimum and joint-stock companies that do not meet the new thresholds. It also applies to non-public joint-stock companies using the registered capital system when their initial or issued capital is below the legal limits.

The minimum capital requirements had previously been raised to 250 thousand lira for joint-stock companies and 50 thousand lira for limited companies. For non-public joint-stock companies in the registered capital system, the minimum initial capital was increased to 500 thousand lira.
