What is e-Devlet in Turkey and How Can Foreigners Use It in 2025?

If you're planning to buy property, obtain a residence permit, or apply for Turkish citizenship — you’ll definitely need to use e-Devlet, Turkey’s official online government services portal.

This article covers:

  • What e-Devlet is and how it works
  • How to register and log in as a foreigner
  • The most useful services for property buyers

 What is e-Devlet?

e-Devlet is Turkey’s centralized e-government platform that allows both citizens and legal residents to:

  • Access official documents and certificates online
  • Submit applications to government agencies
  • Track residence permit (ikamet) status
  • View tax, insurance, and property records
  • Pay property tax, utility fees, and government charges

📌 Think of it as Turkey’s version of a digital "Government Services" portal — but more integrated and efficient.

Why Foreigners Need e-Devlet

As a foreigner, you’ll need e-Devlet to:

  • Extend your residence permit (ikamet)
  • Verify your property ownership (Tapu)
  • Register with UETS (mandatory digital mailbox)
  • Access health insurance and social security info
  • Register your address
  • Pay property and rental income taxes
  • Connect utilities: water, electricity, internet

📌 In short, if you want to live or invest in Turkey — e-Devlet is essential.
