Expertise in Recognition and Enforcement Between Germany and Türkiye

At Zeugma Tax & Law, we specialize in recognition and enforcement of court judgments between Germany and Türkiye.

Our bilingual legal team — with in-depth knowledge of both German and Turkish legal systems — provides professional and efficient legal services for the recognition (tanıma) and enforcement (tenfiz) of German court decisions in Türkiye.

We help individuals and businesses ensure that judgments obtained in Germany are legally valid and enforceable in Türkiye, guaranteeing continuity and legal certainty across both jurisdictions.

What Is Recognition and Enforcement?

Recognition (Tanıma) means that a foreign court decision — such as a divorce, inheritance, or commercial ruling — is officially acknowledged as valid under Turkish law.

Enforcement (Tenfiz) allows that same decision to be executed or enforced in Türkiye, for example through debt collection or asset seizure.

Without recognition or enforcement, German court decisions have no legal effect in Türkiye.

Zeugma Tax & Law ensures that every procedural, linguistic, and legal requirement is met for seamless recognition of your foreign judgment.
