Turkey expands e-Devlet services and digital tax oversight
Overview
Following the 5 September 2026 expansion of tax oversight to digital economic activities, new measures have been implemented to target the unregistered economy and real estate sector. In Muğla, the Ministry of Finance introduced a mandatory monthly reporting system for digital platforms and social media hosting short-term rental advertisements, such as luxury villas and yachts. These platforms must now transmit advertiser identification, addresses, and pricing data to ensure tax compliance. In the broader real estate market, the Ministry of Trade has expanded the Electronic Real Estate Information System (EİDS) to combat fraudulent listings and speculative price fluctuations. Under these rules, property owners must upload authorization contracts to the e-Devlet system. A significant change includes the transition to a single-agent system, where any contract cancellation via e-Devlet triggers the automatic removal of digital advertisements. To ensure market transparency, social media information must now strictly match verified EİDS listings, with discrepancies potentially resulting in administrative sanctions. To combat fraud and forgery, the Ministry of Trade is implementing a ‘Safe Payment System’ to manage transactions through a designated technical infrastructure. Although originally expected to launch earlier, the mandatory implementation date has been officially rescheduled to 1 December 2026. This delay is intended to allow for technical improvements and the establishment of necessary infrastructure between banks and land registry offices. The system will apply to the sale of houses, land, fields, shops, and offices where payments are made via cash, wire transfer, or electronic fund transfer. It is designed to protect parties by ensuring funds are held in a secure, blocked account and only transferred once the title deed transfer is officially completed. Additionally, authorities are intensifying efforts to prevent tax evasion.
