As immigration becomes increasingly common, the number of countries available for selection is also growing. When choosing an ideal immigration destination, experts from SuiMaoTong indicate that national welfare will be one of the core criteria considered by immigrants. Today, our focus is on Turkey, which stands out in the immigration sector due to its welfare benefits that can rival those of the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Turkey is a country that spans two continents, Europe and Asia, and implements a European model in political, economic, and cultural fields. It is a candidate country for the European Union, a member of NATO, as well as a founding member of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and a G20 member. Turkey has been a member of the EU Customs Union since December 31, 1995. With a robust industrial base, Turkey has emerged as one of the world's new emerging economies and is among the fastest-growing countries globally.
According to the World Bank, Turkey was classified as an upper-middle-income country in 2007 based on its per capita GDP. The Central Intelligence Agency categorizes Turkey as a developed country, while economists and political scientists recognize it as an emerging industrialized country. Merrill Lynch, the World Bank, and The Economist classify it as an emerging market.
SuiMaoTong Group has learned that Turkey's transportation system is highly developed, making full use of its advanced infrastructure. Turkey boasts more than 100 airports, including six international airports, with the third international airport (the new Istanbul Airport) being the world's largest. From Istanbul, direct flights are available to over 110 countries and regions. Travel between China and Turkey is also very convenient, with regular direct flights from cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Chengdu, Hong Kong, and Taiwan to Istanbul, taking approximately 10 hours. A broad dual-lane and highway network makes it extremely convenient to drive from home to any major city.
It is important to note that immigrating to Turkey means you can immediately enjoy free medical expenses at public hospitals, with the government covering 75% of costs at private hospitals, as well as free education from kindergarten to university. This is one of the reasons why investors are eager to find ways to immigrate to Turkey.
Just how good are the welfare benefits in Turkey? Let’s take a look further.
Benefit One: Free medical expenses at public hospitals, with the government covering 75% at private hospitals.
Turkey has good health and medical conditions, with well-equipped hospitals, clinics, and emergency facilities in every city, primarily using Western medicine for treatment. According to the World Health Organization, Turkey's total healthcare expenditure in 2014 accounted for 5.4% of its GDP. Based on purchasing power parity, per capita health expenditure is $1,036. Most hospitals in Turkey, whether public or private, meet or exceed international standards in equipment quality and professional level.
Benefit Two: Free education from kindergarten to university, along with a monthly subsidy of 400 Turkish Lira for university students.
The new education system implemented in 2012 established a 4-4-4 system for education in Turkey, comprising 4 years of primary school, 4 years of middle school, and 4 years of high school. There are over 60,000 educational institutions in Turkey, including nearly 200 universities. Notable institutions include Ankara University, Hacettepe University, Middle East Technical University, Bilkent University, Istanbul University, the University of the Bosphorus, and Aegean University.
Benefit Three: Low taxes and incentive measures.
Currently, corporate income tax rates are relatively low, and tax incentives and benefits in technology development zones, industrial zones, and free trade zones include full or partial exemptions from corporate income tax, subsidies for the employers’ contributions to social security, and land allocation.
Benefit Four: Visa-free travel and visa-on-arrival to 111 countries and regions, with expedited processing for the U.S. E2 visa.
Turkey is currently the only geographical, demographic, and economic power from the Eurasian continent that has opened a fast-track citizenship program. Holding a Turkish passport allows visa-free and visa-on-arrival access to 111 countries and regions worldwide, and facilitates expedited processing for U.S. E1 and E2 visas, providing multiple benefits for quick relocation to the United States!
