The yıllık gelir vergisi beyannamesi
Individuals file the annual income tax return (yıllık gelir vergisi beyannamesi) for the previous calendar year in March, through the Revenue Administration's (GİB) Digital Tax Office or e-Devlet. People whose income is only wages, rent or securities can use the pre-filled system (Hazır Beyan Sistemi); business and professional income goes on the full return. The tax is paid in two instalments, in March and July, and the tax assessed on each return is recorded on an accrual slip (tahakkuk fişi).
Turkish citizens use their eleven-digit identity number (T.C. kimlik numarası) as their tax number; companies and foreigners have a ten-digit tax number (vergi kimlik numarası, VKN). The return and the accrual slip are printed from the online tax office, and we translate both together so the amounts can be matched. Figures use a decimal comma, and we copy every number and code exactly as printed.
Vergi levhası and the no-tax-debt letter
Business taxpayers obtain a tax plate (vergi levhası) each year from the online tax office. It identifies the taxpayer and the tax office, and its approval code (onay kodu) replaces a stamp: anyone can check the plate on GİB's site or through e-Devlet. It is a quick way to show that a business is registered with a tax office and filing returns.
For proof that no tax is owed, the tax office issues a no-tax-debt letter (borcu yoktur yazısı) or a debt status letter (borç durum yazısı), requested through e-Devlet and verified on GİB's site with the petition number and the tax number. Other e-Devlet documents carry a barcode checked through the e-Devlet document verification service. We translate the verification lines in full.
Why US offices ask for them
8 CFR 204.6(j)(3) lists personal and corporate tax returns filed within five years with any taxing jurisdiction among the evidence of an EB-5 investor's lawful source of funds. Consular officers deciding an E-2 case, a visa open to Turkish nationals, may ask for whatever documentation they need on the source of the investment, and US banks and lenders reviewing Turkish income may ask for the same returns.
The translation keeps every figure in lira as printed, with the same rows, columns and boxes as the original, and identity and tax numbers copied digit by digit. We do not convert to dollars, adjust for inflation, compute US-equivalent income or check the arithmetic; that is the work of your accountant. See also Turkish financial statements, bank statements, tax documents and our Turkish page.
What USCIS requires
Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.
State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.
How it works
Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.
A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.
Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.
Certified vs. standard translation
A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.
A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
Frequently asked questions
I used Hazır Beyan. Is that a real tax return?
Yes. It is the annual return, filed through GİB's pre-filled system. We translate it with its accrual slip.
My vergi levhası has no stamp, only an onay kodu.
That is the official form; the code replaces the stamp. We translate it in full, code included.
Should I send the tahakkuk fişi too?
Yes, if you have it. It shows the tax assessed on the return, and we translate them together.
My return is from before 2005.
We translate the amounts as printed, in old lira, without converting them to today's lira or to dollars.
