A&M supports businesses throughout the lifecycle of establishing and maintaining a company in Turkey.
Its services may cover:
The firm’s experience extends across sectors including energy, construction, real estate, logistics, hospitality, information technology and professional services.
This cross-sector experience enables A&M to consider the specific operational, accounting, tax and compliance requirements that may apply to different types of businesses entering or operating in the Turkish market.
A&M Consulting Co. follows an integrated, single-point service model designed to reduce the administrative complexity of establishing and operating a business in Turkey.
Rather than requiring foreign investors to coordinate multiple service providers for separate administrative and financial processes, A&M can coordinate key areas including company registration, tax registration, accounting, payroll, social security compliance and banking-related procedures.
For international clients, the firm also provides practical guidance on documentation, powers of attorney, notarisation and translation requirements, Trade Registry procedures and post-incorporation compliance.
Where appropriate, incorporation and certain administrative procedures can be coordinated remotely through properly executed powers of attorney, helping international founders manage the Turkish establishment process without unnecessary travel.

The firm’s work includes assisting foreign-owned businesses with company establishment, regulatory onboarding, accounting and tax registration, banking-related processes and ongoing compliance requirements.
A&M also publishes practical guidance covering company registration in Turkey, company formation, corporate changes, tax compliance, accounting, payroll, social security and business banking.
These publications are designed to help foreign investors understand the practical requirements of entering the Turkish market and to identify common issues that may arise during incorporation and subsequent operations.
A&M Consulting Co. places significant emphasis on client education and practical regulatory guidance.
Through its website publications and professional communications, the firm provides step-by-step information on subjects including company registration in Turkey, corporate amendments, tax registration, accounting requirements, payroll, Social Security (SGK), electronic tax applications and banking procedures.
These resources are particularly relevant to foreign investors who may be unfamiliar with Turkish administrative procedures and compliance requirements.
The firm’s educational approach focuses on explaining not only the steps involved in establishing a business but also the ongoing obligations that arise after incorporation. This helps clients make informed decisions and prepare the documentation and processes required to operate their businesses in compliance with Turkish regulations.
Turkey provides a range of options for foreign investors establishing businesses, with 100% foreign ownership generally permitted, subject to applicable legislation and sector-specific requirements.
Common structures include limited liability companies and joint stock companies, while branch and liaison office structures may also be appropriate depending on the nature and objectives of the business.
However, establishing a company involves more than completing Trade Registry registration. Businesses may also need to address tax registration, accounting systems, VAT and withholding tax obligations, electronic tax applications, payroll and Social Security compliance, corporate banking and other post-incorporation requirements.
Requirements can vary depending on the company’s activities, structure, employees, transactions and sector. Proper coordination of these processes can therefore help foreign investors avoid unnecessary delays and establish an effective compliance framework from the beginning.
A&M Consulting Co. combines company registration support with accounting and tax expertise to help businesses manage these interconnected requirements through a coordinated advisory approach.
Foreign investors and international businesses often require more than basic company registration when entering the Turkish market. They need a professional partner who understands how incorporation connects with tax, accounting, payroll, social security and ongoing compliance.

The firm’s experience with international clients, combined with its accounting and tax expertise, enables A&M to provide practical support from the initial company formation stage through to ongoing business operations.
