When asked how to open a legal entity, I will explain using the example of a medium-sized enterprise for business purposes.

 

STEP 1you need to talk to businessmen in your area to find a good accountant. By district, I mean the place of residence, city, region, region, so that it is not so far from you.

Accountant is the main person you will need to start and run your business. You may be able to find him through newspaper ads and websites, but I would advise you to find him through the recommendations of current businessmen.

In fact, you can hire one accountant to open a company, and hire another accountant to run the business. But I wouldn't advise you to do that. In the process of opening a company, you will see the competence of an accountant, and if he does not suit you, you can move on to another. I was lucky - I did not change the accountant.

 

Accountant in Turkey must be licensed. As a rule, an accountant is not one person, as is customary with us, but a whole team. They will leadONLY tax accounting, for accounting and management accounting, as is customary with us, it is necessary to hire individual employees, or to conduct it remotely. In my practice, I will say that our turnover is not so large, so you manage internal accounting on your own. I think those who will work on a grand scale, there is no need to read my notes, because these are completely different questions, problems and solutions.

In general, you understand that an accountant must be a professional in his field, with a license and it is desirable that he impress you as a person. All this is necessary for you to be comfortable. Agree, it’s not very pleasant to do business with an unpleasant person 😊

Each accountant must have, in addition to a license, their own office and staff. Keep this in mind and be sure to check the presence of these components. Be sure to meet with them in their office, based on personal experience, prepare questions to test his competence and understand how he will act in a given situation. Immediately ask how much his services will cost to open and maintain your company.

As a rule, for opening a company, you will pay a one-time fee only for this service, but for doing business you will pay under the contract monthly, quarterly or immediately for the year, how to agree.

Prices may vary significantly. Well, as is customary in Turkey - bargain, there is nothing shameful in this.

As soon as you talked to several accountants, checked their licenses, visited their office, chose a suitable one for yourself, start acting. Do not put off indefinitely, because remember - the road will be mastered by the walking one.
