Middle East

Turkey's Law 7582 now exempts new residents from tax on foreign income for 20 years, and citizenship by investment starts at USD 400,000 with dual nationality allowed. Immigration tightened sharply in 2026 though, with 1,169 closed neighbourhoods and tourism-ground residence renewals effectively shut.
