Has there been any further news regarding the law of selling/buying cars without residency permit?
-
I'll take that as a 'no' then :D
-
Dont know anything about a stupid law but you have always needed residence permits up here to buy a car.
-
Anyone tried to sell their car without residency lately. Is it still a no no?
Don't know about Istanbul, Starman, but here one minute you can buy a car without residency (like I and loads of others did) next thing we know it's all changed. No buying, no selling until you fork out for residency. someone said it was an glitch/oversight in the new Notary software but haven't heard anything else since.
-
We have sold our car this week with no residency never even mentioned it.
-
Can I ask which notary you went to, Sooty?
-
past the fish market (towards the mosque) over the road up a scruffy corridor and up to the 1st floor sorry I cant be more specific Peecee but it did say notary on the outside but if you didnt know it was there you would miss it.
-
thank you Sooty

I am in the process of purchasing a scooter - used the notary behind Kent Vet - the translator there asked me if I had residency and when I had taken it out? They need to be able to get the Turkish Kimlik number off the computer - once you have residency this can take 4-6 weeks to appear on the system - so they say even if you have residency you have to wait until you have this number to buy or sell. The asked for Residency Permit, Passport and my Tax Number.

I have been today looking at new cars in the Fiat dealers, the first question I was asked is, do you have residency, she said you can not buy a car without it

I was speaking to Koray of ATAK translations the other day and he explained that the fault lies with the software used for this transaction which was created to take a Kimlik number.No other number allowed the sale or purchase to ahead as it was a required field item.But if anyone has an old,expired residency,by following the turkish government formula you can still get the yabanci kimlik number even though you may now be using a 90 day visa.
-
Like Mark I went to Fiat dealers (Su Otomotiv)and although I had residency did not have Kimlik Number,however the sales staff were really helpful.
The Girl who looked after us was called Banu and cheerfully accompanied us to the usual 4/5 offices that the scurrilously dodgy notary had done previously and it didn't cost us any extra!!
