How EU (European Union) laws effect debt collection in Turkey? 

Although there are many European legislations, we can work with our national laws. 
 
Turkey signed a free trade agreement (FTA) with the European Union (EU) in 1995 and this has been enforced since 1995. Turkey is also part of The European Union Customs Union (EUCU), which is a customs union that consists of all the member states of the European Union (EU) as well as a few other countries like Andorra through separate bilateral agreements. Turkey has been an applicant to accede to the EU since 1987 but since 2016 accession negotiations have stalled. Turkey borders two EU member states: Bulgaria and Greece.

What is the debt collection process in Turkey? 

In Turkey, our judicial system is part of civil law, so many of our laws are very similar with the law systems of Germany, Switzerland and Italy. So there is no jury system, one or three judges conclude lawsuits in case of dispute. 
Our main way to solve disputes between private persons is to file a lawsuit. However, we have to apply mediation phase first before filing a lawsuit in labour issues and commercial disputes. 
For debt collection, main way is to send execution order to counter party via execution offices. If your receivable is not derived from the court order or cheque and promissory note and thecounter party objects the execution order, 
then the execution proceeding will be stopped and we need to file lawsuit for the cancellation of their objection. But if they don’t object, the execution order will be finalized and we have a right to seize their bank accounts, movable and immovables until we collect the all receivables. 

Average length of time to collect a debt? 

The average time taken to recover a Turkey B2B debt collection case varies from case to case but typically takes 1 month in Turkey. 

Can late payment fees / interest to be added to claims? 

You need to pay fees first when you want to enter judicial process. In case the court order ends up in your favor, counter party has to pay the fees and you can also add the interest of your claims when you push into default counter party with warning letter or/claim/execution order. 

Details on legal service / process in Turkey? 

The judicial system in Turkey is working slow (i.e. the finalization of lawsuits takes approx. 2-3 years) due to the quantity of lawsuits especially in metropolitan regions and number of officially qualified staff. 
 
There are many obstacles, legal gaps and frequent law amendments in Turkish Legislation, so when you need to take any legal action, you should retain a lawyer to handle the whole process..
