Frequently asked questions
What happens if I miss the VAT Return Filing deadline?
Late registration attracts a fixed penalty, and late filings add further penalties. If you are already late, GoldenKey can register you and advise on penalty reconsideration where grounds exist.
Can GoldenKey act as my tax agent?
Yes — GoldenKey can prepare and submit filings on your behalf and handle FTA correspondence, so you have one point of contact for licence, visa and tax matters.
Does VAT Return Filing apply to a new company with no revenue yet?
Crucially, filing starts from the first tax period after registration, even if the return is nil.
Can a Turkish citizen own 100% of a company in VAT Return Filing?
Yes. Turkish nationals can own the full share capital of a VAT Return Filing company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Can my family from Türkiye join me?
To be clear, once your investor visa is issued you can sponsor your spouse and children, and GoldenKey processes their visas alongside yours.
