Turkish authorities in every way support foreign investors and strive to actively involve them in a variety of industries, particularly in tourism, agriculture and power generation and distribution.

International cooperation. Today, quite a number of international agreements facilitate the work of foreign companies in Turkey. These agreements relate to free trade zones, investment (the country succeeded in reaching agreements with 80 countries), as well as tax incentives (68 countries agreed to bilateral concessions).
Special Economic Zones. To stimulate the economy in Turkey, they created a number of special zones.
Technological Development Zones (TDZ) are located throughout the country, and their number is constantly growing.
Organized Industrial Zones (OIZ) are designed for large industrial groups. Companies operating there receive significant tax exemptions and benefits when obtaining loans, and they can also expect reduced charges when paying for energy.
Free Zones (SZ) for export-oriented companies that are not within the customs area. Today, there are 19 of those in Turkey, they are located close to major ports, which ensures for companies operating in these zones access to international trade routes.
High profitability. Doing business in Turkey is not only convenient, but also profitable. This is confirmed by the fact that today about 15 thousand enterprises in Turkey are created with the help of foreign investments. Large companies such as Honda, Ford, Renault, Bosch, Toyota, and many others have opened their branches in this country.
Bypassing difficulties with imports. Turkish authorities strongly support local producers, actively protecting the domestic market from imports. Imported goods often become uncompetitive as they are subjected to a variety of taxes, which adversely affects the price. That is why many companies prefer to open branches in Turkey and export their products to other countries from here.
