Turkish citizens living abroad cannot closely follow their legal transactions in Turkey. At this point, one of the most difficult legal issues for citizens living abroad is the tracking of all kinds of receivables in Turkey, enforcement actions, investigating and determining the debtor’s assets. The follow-up of receivables of citizens living abroad is one of the most important legal issues arising because of a party living abroad.
There are sometimes situations where Turkish citizens living abroad have significant problems in the follow-up of receivables and execution or the collection of debt and receivables. Having a creditor abroad is also one of the factors affecting the situation. For the collection of receivables, it is necessary to determine the assets and liabilities of the debtor.
There are millions of citizens living abroad, and these citizens still have their property, investments, and family relationships in Turkey. It is quite natural that in such cases there are some issues related to debt and receivable relationships. If a citizen lives abroad, they may not be able to collect their receivables from a debtor located in Turkey.
Millions of Turkish citizens abroad want to be able to follow the legal issues that are happening in Turkey. The fact that a borrower is a person living abroad does not prevent him from sending a payment order or conducting enforcement proceedings. Still, it is extremely important to seek legal assistance in such cases. In particular, there should be legal support in matters of enforcement proceedings, questioning, and determination of the debtor’s assets.
Receivables and Execution Follow-Up in Turkish Law
In the Turkish legal system, there are judicial proceedings and proceedings without judgment regarding the collection of receivables. Judgment proceeding is a legal follow-up method that the creditor performs by first applying to the court. As a result of the trial, a judgment is decided. Later, upon applying to an enforcement office, the execution of this judgment is requested. Follow-up of enforcement without judgment is the enforcement follow-up carried out by the creditor by contacting the enforcement office.
There is no need to have a court decision, a document, or proof of receipt in proceeding without judgment. There are only receivables arising from money and assurance in enforcement proceedings without judgment. In judgment proceedings, it is possible that the receiver not only will receive money or assurance, but also the delivery and evacuation of real estate. To apply for compulsory enforcement proceedings, there should be a court decision.
