Country packs
Türkiye
A business set up in Türkiye gets the Türkiye pack automatically: e-documents, tax, the Tekdüzen chart, SGK, KVKK and the compliance calendar.
e-Documents
- A sent invoice becomes e-Fatura when both sides are registered, otherwise e-Arşiv; the draft shows which one and what is missing
- e-Fatura, e-Arşiv and credit notes download as UBL-TR 1.2 XML named by ETTN, with a separate subtotal per KDV rate
- A delivery between two registered parties goes as e-İrsaliye: a GİB-format number, plate and driver TCKN checked, UBL-TR XML to download
- Upload a supplier's e-İrsaliye XML: it is matched by tax number, kept once per ETTN, and its lines fill the goods receipt
- A self-employed business issues e-SMM; for a customer in Türkiye, income tax withholding of 20% by default is taken off the net
Tax
- KDV is set per line at 0, 1, 10 or 20%, 20% by default; one invoice can carry several rates
- VKN and TCKN are checked by their check digits; employee ID numbers are validated as TCKN too
- 52 KDV withholding codes (601–627, 801–825) and 79 exemption codes from GİB's lists; a customer's code carries to new invoices
- GVK 94 withholding at 20, 17 or 5%: what you withhold and what customers withhold from you, in one report
- Stamp duty on agreements at 2026 rates: 9.48‰ for contracts, 1.89‰ for leases, capped per copy and shared between the parties
- TCMB rates are fetched daily; a foreign-currency invoice's rate is fixed when it is sent, from the previous bulletin by default
Accounting
- The accountant's package proposes the journal on Tekdüzen Hesap Planı codes by default; your own codes take precedence
- The package lists the Tekdüzen chart's 9 classes and 260 main accounts; each bank account gets its own sub-account (102.01, 102.02…)
- An e-Defter draft of a closed month: XBRL-GL journal and general ledger in TRY, every entry balanced, as a ZIP for your accountant
- Once a period is closed, its invoices, payments, expenses and bank entries cannot change; the database enforces it too
People and SGK
- Annual leave of 14, 20 or 26 days by years of service; at least 20 days at 18 or under and 50 or over
- Statutory leave with its limits: marriage and bereavement 3, paternity 10, adoption 3 days; maternity and sick leave unpaid, no day limit
- Probation is at most 2 months; up to 4 is saved only with a collective agreement warning
- SGK occupation and exit codes are kept and go to the payroll input package; an exit notice not given within 10 days shows as late
- Severance and notice pay suggested: severance with its ceiling, notice 2–8 weeks; amounts go to the payroll input
- R&D centre report: approved hours of R&D, design and support staff inside and outside the zone, checked against the legal shares
KVKK
- Versioned privacy notices for 6 audiences; explicit consent only through the person's own one-time link, and it can be withdrawn
- Data subject requests are due in 30 days by default; erasure removes personal data except the records the business must keep
- A 72-hour countdown to notify the Kurul of a breach; reminders at 24 hours left and at the deadline
- A processing inventory with 26 data categories in VERBİS form order, 11 special categories and art. 5's 8 legal grounds; CSV export
- The Kurul guide's 17 technical and administrative measures load in one step, each tracked as its own control
- Transfers abroad need an art. 9 basis; a standard contract not notified to the Kurul within 5 working days is flagged
Compliance calendar
- The ready Türkiye compliance calendar loads in one step as 10 recurring obligations; loading again adds only the missing items
- Monthly: KDV return on the 28th, withholding and premium return and stamp duty on the 26th, SGK premiums and e-Defter berat on the last day
- Provisional tax on 17 May, August and November; corporate tax by 30 April, general assembly by 31 March; yearly reviews of VERBİS and KVKK notices
Legal deadlines
- Deadlines follow the HMK: in day periods the service day is not counted; week and month periods end on the matching day
- A court deadline falling in the judicial recess (20 July–31 August) moves to 7 September; enforcement deadlines do not
- A last day on a weekend or holiday moves to the next working day; on a half-day eve it ends at noon
- 8 ready deadline rules: answer and appeal 2 weeks, cassation 1 month, administrative action 60 days, payment order objection 7 days
- Matter types include consumer arbitration, enforcement, administrative and criminal cases
Debt and cards
- A restructured tax or SGK debt breaks after more than two late instalments in a calendar year or an unpaid last one; you are warned at the limit
- A credit card statement's minimum payment is taken as 30% unless the card has its own rate
