Legal Tools and Document Checklists
Use practical document, deadline and remote-instruction checklists before requesting an assessment of a legal matter in Turkey.
These practical checklists help international clients organise documents before contacting the office. They are informational and do not calculate a final deadline or legal entitlement.
Document preparation checklist
Prepare a clear timeline, contracts, invoices, payment records, court or enforcement documents, correspondence and the identity details of the parties.
Remote instruction checklist
State where you are located, whether an original document is available and whether notarisation, apostille, sworn translation or a power of attorney may be required.
Urgent deadline check
If a notice, judgment, payment order, detention or removal decision has been served, include the exact service date. Do not rely on this page to calculate a procedural deadline.

Tax
VAT Calculator
This tool uses the working calculation module maintained for Turkish law. Results are indicative; current rates, limits, dates and file-specific facts must be verified.
VAT Calculation
Select whether the amount is excluding or including VAT; view the tax base, calculated VAT, and total amount separately.
How to calculate including and excluding VAT?
For the price excluding VAT, the tax is found by multiplying the tax base by the selected rate and added to the total price. For the price including VAT, the tax base is separated by dividing the total amount by the value "1 + rate".
The price excluding VAT on which the tax is calculated.
It is the product of the tax base and the selected tax rate.
It is the sum of the tax base and the calculated VAT.
Why is the rate selection left to the user?
In Turkey, in addition to the general rate, there may be reduced rates, exceptions, and procedure-specific provisions. Therefore, the tool performs a mathematical separation; it does not legally determine which rate will be applied.
Frequently asked questions
How is tax deducted from the VAT-inclusive amount?
The tax base is found by dividing the total amount by 1 + VAT rate; the difference between the total and the tax base is VAT.
Does the vehicle invoice count?
No. The result is only a preliminary calculation; current tax legislation should be used when preparing the document.
