    How much tax do you have to pay for renting a commercial property in Turkey?

    When you are registering your business in Turkey, you need an office space. When you rent an office space, you have to pay tax on top of its rent too! why? no clue. But the rational is that since your landlord is not working in the property, their tax on the property is transferred to you.

    The number of your employees does not exempt you from paying this tax! it only affects the frequency of tax paying.

    IF you have under 10 employees, you have to pay commercial tax every 3 months.
    IF you have more than 10 employees, you have to pay it every month. That is your reward for creating jobs

    How much do you have to pay? The amount of tax is 20% on net, and 23% on gross. Which roughly equals to the amount of the rent itself every 3 months. so, if you are renting a place for 10K liras for example, you have to pay 10K as tax on the 3rd month on top of the rent too.

    Can you not pay this tax?
    Well, no! you will be prosecuted for tax evasion. BUT!!! there are some ways around it.
    1- You can either buy the property, Or
    2- Rent a virtual working space: If you register a virtual working space as the address of your business while registering your business, you are exempted from paying this tax.
