What we handle in the Tanıma process
Recognise a German divorce
We conduct the Tanıma procedure so your German divorce becomes legally effective in Turkey.
Tenfiz for maintenance and custody
If maintenance, custody or asset provisions must be enforced, we assess and conduct the Tenfiz procedure.
Prepare the documents
We check the divorce decision, finality note, apostille, translation and power of attorney in a structured way.
No travel to Turkey
With a suitable power of attorney, we represent you before Turkish courts and coordinate the follow-up steps.
Update marital status
After recognition, we support the steps needed to update your marital status in Turkish registers.
Clarify timing and costs
You receive an early, realistic assessment of documents, timing, costs and possible risks.
Important to know
Without Tanıma, Turkey may still treat you as married.
This can create real problems with remarriage, inheritance, property transfers, banking or maintenance. Recognition is therefore not just paperwork, but often the necessary next step after a German divorce.
