We spend 6 months in Fethiye 1 Nov until 30 April. :)
I've just renewed my UK passport and I'm wondering if they will except my new passport with my residency permit which still has 3 months to run.
I know the passport number is not on the residency permit but being 80 I don't need any hassle at all when I arrive in Dalaman.
Any advice will be most welcome.

Take both passports wıth you as the old one has your old vısa stamp ın ıt.

He has residency Quackers so there won't be a visa stamp.
But, still take both passports.

I was informed if you applied for residency the end date must be before the expiry date of your current passport. Is this wrong?

No......................and Yes!
It depends on the day of the week.
Burasi Turkiye.

Thanks for the replies.
I applied for 2 years residency in Dec 2011 it was not until later I realised my passport expired in September 2013, I still got the 2 years but that's Turkey for you. ;D ;D

Normally there is six months required on the passport after a visa and in this case residency permit expires; this is the same for any visa anywhere in the world.
Interesting though that yours went through and useful to know this might be a possibility for someone considering how to bring their passport renewal in line with a new residency application :)

I would not rely on it as I think mine was an oversight.
