  •  in writing;
  •  in an audio form;
  •  on online channels;
  •  in a visual form.

 

Advertising and marketing agencies must also comply with the Consumer Protection Law which can be explained by our Turkish lawyers.
 

Registering an advertising and marketing business in Turkey

 
Both local and foreign businessmen are allowed to open companies that provide marketing and advertising services in Turkey. The company registration procedure is the same as for any type of business, however, it does not require any special license.
 
Advertising and marketing agencies in Turkey must, however, make sure that:
 
  • the ads they create and broadcast are not misleading, meaning the information about the products or services they promote is true;
  • the products or services they promote does not fall under the category of comparative advertising, meaning that the ad must focus on the targeted product or service only;
  • if an information about clients is collected, the company respects the Privacy Data Law;
  • the use of trademarks, commercial names or logos for advertisement purposes must be presented as such in order to not be considered covert advertisement.
