Most demand for company formation in Antalya comes from tourism, health tourism and greenhouse agriculture investment. The international health tourism authorisation certificate and the Ministry of Trade's health tourism supports are the questions investors here ask most often.
Registration is handled by the Antalya Ticaret Sicili Müdürlüğü within Antalya Ticaret ve Sanayi Odası (ATSO). The application is prepared through MERSİS, and with a power of attorney the shareholders need not travel to Türkiye.

Frequently asked questions
Where is a company registered in Antalya?
Registration is carried out by the Antalya Ticaret Sicili Müdürlüğü within Antalya Ticaret ve Sanayi Odası (ATSO). The application is prepared electronically through MERSİS, followed by notarisation and registry entry. The company acquires legal personality once announced in the Trade Registry Gazette.
Do I need to travel to set up a company in Antalya?
No. The entire incorporation can be completed remotely with an apostilled power of attorney issued at the Turkish consulate in your country. Only for bank account opening do some banks require a one-off in-person visit; we clarify that requirement at the outset.
Can I set up a company in a free zone in Antalya?
The free zone section on this page lists the zones in this province. A company established in a free zone benefits from corporate tax exemption on manufacturing income and from customs exemption; in return it must obtain an operating licence and the approval of the zone operator. The advantage narrows for business models aimed at the domestic market.
