What is covered

• Reports on foreign markets, regulation, competitors, customers or consumer behaviour used to build your market strategy
• Membership of databases on the Ministry's supported databases list (EK-19)

How claiming works

Pre-approval first, then claim after the activity or payment.

1. Pay from the Turkish company's bank account or company card, and keep the invoice, contract and payment record together.
2. We assemble the evidence pack and file the claim in DYS to the Services Exporters' Association (HİB) as the examining body.
3. If anything is missing, the reviewer gives three months to complete it (extendable by three more).
4. Support is paid in Turkish lira into the company account, typically one to three months after filing.

Rules worth knowing

• Reports need pre-approval before you pay; database memberships are claimed after the membership period

Documents you will need

• The report itself or proof of access
• Invoice and proof of payment
• Invoice issued to the Turkish company
• Proof of payment from the company account or company card (bank statement, SWIFT, or card statement)
• Contract, order confirmation or platform agreement
• Evidence that the activity is aimed at foreign markets

Frequently asked

How long do I have to file?

Six months from the payment date. Multiple payments for the same activity are filed together, each within its own six-month window.

Is VAT reimbursed too?

Yes. Support is calculated on the invoice amount including indirect taxes, and foreign-currency invoices are converted at the Central Bank rate on the payment date.
