About Independent Accountants & Advisors (IA)

Serving clients since 2004 from Ankara, with further offices in Istanbul and Sakarya, this accounting and advisory company works in English and Turkish and has a strong focus on foreign direct investment companies. Its English-speaking accountants, tax and legal advisers guide foreign investors on the most suitable company type, prepare draft articles of association and other documents, and complete the incorporation before the trade registry, tax office and social security institution, a process the firm says can take about four working days. It also establishes branch, liaison and project offices, handles municipal and fire department registrations, files the annual activity reports and foreign direct investment information forms required by the ministry, and applies for liaison office extensions. A registered office address can be provided for new entities. Ongoing services cover bookkeeping and reporting, tax returns, payroll and trade registry changes, while a dedicated team prepares and follows up work and residence permit applications for expatriate staff.
