According to the diplomatic mission, dishonest individuals are using personal connections to offer high-paying jobs. In reality, however, many citizens fall victim to fraud and face serious difficulties upon arrival.
Scammers typically promise assistance with employment, housing, and documentation. Yet once in Türkiye, many find themselves without the promised conditions, support, or salary. Furthermore, the absence of official documents and employment contracts makes it nearly impossible to hold the perpetrators legally accountable.
The consulate reminds citizens that, in order to work legally in Türkiye, foreign nationals must obtain an official work permit (Çalışma İzni). Citizens are strongly advised to use only licensed agencies and to avoid suspicious job offers.
