Company Formation
GlobalB Law guides founders and investors through entity formation in Türkiye, the US, and across the EU, selecting the right jurisdiction and structure from day one.
Choosing where and how to incorporate shapes everything that follows, fundraising capacity, tax exposure, regulatory obligations, and exit options. GlobalB Law advises on the full spectrum of entity types, from Turkish limited liability companies (limited şirket) and joint-stock companies (anonim şirket) to Delaware C-Corps, LLCs, and EU-based holding structures. We analyse the client's business model, investor profile, and target markets before recommending a jurisdiction.
For cross-border ventures, particularly technology companies that operate in Türkiye while targeting US investors or EU markets, we design dual-entity or multi-entity structures that optimise for both capital formation and operational reality. This includes advising on the timing and mechanics of a flip to a Delaware holding company, a common path for Turkish startups seeking US venture capital.
Beyond registration formalities, our setup work covers founding shareholder arrangements, initial articles of association, board composition, authorised capital structures, and the regulatory notifications that accompany formation in each jurisdiction. Clients receive a formation package that is investor-ready from the outset.

常见问题
常见问题解答
Should I incorporate in Türkiye or the US if I plan to raise from US investors?
Most US institutional investors prefer a Delaware C-Corp as the top entity. A common structure pairs a Delaware parent with a Turkish operating subsidiary, allowing you to issue US-standard equity instruments while keeping operations and talent in Türkiye. We assess your specific situation before recommending a structure.
What is a 'flip' and when should a Turkish startup do it?
A flip re-domiciles the company so that a newly formed Delaware corporation becomes the parent and the Turkish entity becomes its wholly owned subsidiary. It is typically done before a Series A when US investors require it. Timing matters, flipping after significant IP or value has accrued in Türkiye can trigger Turkish tax consequences that need to be planned around.
How long does it take to incorporate a company in Türkiye?
A Turkish limited or joint-stock company can typically be incorporated within two to five business days once all documents are prepared and notarised. We handle the full process, including Trade Registry filings and tax registration.
What documents do founders need to provide to incorporate?
Requirements vary by jurisdiction, but typically include passport copies, proof of address, and decisions on share allocation, management structure, and registered capital. We provide a tailored checklist at the outset of every engagement.
