About Plato Accounting & Tax Advisory

Founded by an accountant with some 25 years of experience in Turkey, Dubai and Canada, this Istanbul chartered accounting firm in Beylikdüzü runs an English-language site aimed largely at foreign entrepreneurs and companies entering Turkey. Its company formation page describes managing the whole process for limited liability companies, normally within seven working days: handling documents sent from abroad, explaining the apostille procedure, arranging translation and notarisation, drafting the articles, registering with the chamber of commerce, preparing the statutory books and obtaining the tax number. It also sets up joint stock and holding companies, branches and liaison offices of foreign companies, including the foreign capital directorate permit, as well as free zone companies and non-profit entities. Bookkeeping is supervised by staff who speak foreign languages, and the firm prepares VAT, withholding, stamp duty and corporate tax returns, offers tax advice for foreigners, outsources payroll and provides audit and financial consultancy.
