My family is from Egypt and we want to invest in the Turkish real estate market in exchange for citizenship. My daughter is 19 years old and just graduated from high school in my home country. I understand that she is not eligible to get citizenship together with me and my wife. But are there any other types of visas or resident permits that she can apply for in order to live and attend college in the country?
Yes, your understanding is correct. It is not possible to obtain citizenship for your daughter under the umbrella of your application. However, it is possible to obtain a student visa and residence permit for your daughter if she will study in Turkey.
In general, all students from countries outside of Turkey need to have a residence permit to study in Turkey if they are planning on staying for more than three months. All international students who completed their registration process at the university must apply for the student's residence permit within 10 days. Within 30 days, the documents must be completed and submitted to the International Student and Staff Affairs (ISSA-OFFICE). Those who have missing documents will be given 7 days to complete them. Those who do not complete the documents within the time period must submit their documents to the Provincial Directorate of Migration Management.
The age of majority is 21 years old for Egyptians. Therefore, you can apply the citizenship for your daughter.
Your daughter may apply to a university in Turkey to study and obtain a student visa following the admission.
