Title Deed – TAPU in Turkey
Everything You Need to Know About Property Ownership Documents
When purchasing real estate in Turkey, the most important document you’ll receive is the Title Deed, known locally as the TAPU. This official document proves legal ownership of the property and is issued by the Land Registry Office. At True Property, we ensure a smooth and secure process from property selection to TAPU delivery.
What is a TAPU?
A TAPU is an official government document that includes:
- Name of the property owner
- Property location and plot details
- Property type and size
- Registration and parcel number
- Stamp and signature from the Land Registry Office
This document is required for any legal transaction involving the property—such as resale, inheritance, or rental agreements.
Types of Title Deeds
- Blue TAPU: Generally used for shared or land ownership
- Red TAPU: Used for completed apartments or independent units
