Calis Beach Questions and Information / Re: Renters/Subletters be aware

No, we're 9 months into our 3rd 2 year residency term, just a completely random knock on the door with no explanation other than Address Check so I guess I'm only assuming it is related to the new rules?

Out of interest , have you recently applied for residency ?
Police will check all residents and addresses after residency card is issued, but I don't think they have been tasked with anything to do with the Short Term Letting licence applications (yet).

Hi All

An update.

Been in conversation with the apartment today, and the reply was that they had been with the Tourism Ministry this morning at 8.30 and were told applications will take as long as they take and as a result they were cancelling all bookings  up to 31/8.

So I am looking for alternatives in Calis in June

Can't say I am not disappointed as  the Ministry said they would conclude the process within 3 months.

Oh well back to the search once we've had our refund.

Nearly 3 weeks since my last post, and the apartment contact, said yesterday that he expects things to move 'soon' but he is till advising me to decide on whether I cancel to get a full refund. Is there anyone else still in this situation? He told me that he made the initial application in January.

I read on the Ministry of Culture and Tourism website that -

"The Ministry ensures that the license issuance process concludes within 3 months of the application date"

We are due to travel to Turkey in less that 6 weeks, but we have until 30th May to get the full refund, so as they say, the clock is ticking.......

Any reassurance would be welcome

Thanks

Steve, this gives a bit of clarity to this issue, especially when the rules seem a bit vague Thanks for your replies.

Thank you Steve A. I messaged the landlord yesterday on this and we have agreed that we will monitor up to the end of April and review then, he has had his application in since the beginning of January, But from what you say on your reply, if he was renting last year and is registered in the 'edevlet' and his application is in, it sounds as if it is OK to rent until otherwise told. Am I correct in assuming that?
