According to your rental contract, you can fill in the contact details in Turkey, if you face difficulty filling the address, for example, the district, main road I highly recommend you to open Adres Kayıt Sistemi

https://adres.nvi.gov.tr/Home

1 – Province is Istanbul, Ankara any other province you live,

2 – District is İlçe in Turkish, for example, Kartal/Istanbul,  Bakirkoy/Istanbul,  Mamak/Ankara etc.

3 – District or Village is the area you live in, after district, there is always another name used for the area, for example; Beyoğlu/Cihangir Mah.

4 – Main Road, it’s the road name next to your apartment even if you open Google map you can find small road names if you choose the wrong main road name the building and your apartment will not appear in the next section 5

5 – In this section, if you choose the correct Main Road you can find the apartment number it means the building number, not the unit number keep in mind.

NOTE: I highly recommend first open your address in Adres Kayıt Sistemi and check in the map if shows the correct coordination.

6 – Select the unite number in this section, once you did it will be shown like this;

Now Enter a phone number with your email and click on the Next

11 – Work Information

On this page, you are declaring your income but keep in mind you should always select your income at least equal to the amount minimum wage in Turkey.

You can write a source income for example retirement, home rental, remote job, etc, and also your income amount, it’s just a simple declaration immigration office will not ask you for further documents.

13 – Information on Insurance

 

The type of Health Insurance is usually private.

Write the Insurance company name with Turkish Latin alphabet

Enter the Policy number >

Renewal Number, if it’s your first application and it means you did not renew your insurance so you can write 0

After that, an insurance signed forum will be added in the bottom of the page automatically like in the photo, you can press Next!

    Hi, if I’m trying to verify the apartment’s unit number but the Adres Kayıt Sistemi doesn’t have it (it has most of the building’s other unit numbers but is missing a few), what does this mean? Thanks.

    Hello, I’m applying for short-term residency for tourism purposes and bringing my wife with me to Turkey. Would I need to fill out an Application for Short-Term Residence or the Application for Family Residence? Also, do I just need to fill out the application for myself or do a 2nd one for my wife (she does not work and I will show proof of sufficient funds for both) Thanks!
