How it is calculated

The person who inherits or receives the asset pays the tax. Each heir files for their own share, and the tax is paid in 6 equal instalments over 3 years, each May and November. Allowances and bracket limits rise every January with the revaluation rate, announced in a Revenue Administration communiqué at the end of each year.

FormulaMatrah = Pay değeri − Borç ve masraflar − İstisna; Vergi = Σ (dilimdeki matrah × dilim oranı)Inheritance rates are 1%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 10%; gift rates 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%. Brackets: the first ₺3,000,000, up to ₺10,000,000, up to ₺25,000,000, up to ₺55,000,000, and above. Gifts from a parent, spouse or child pay half the gift rates.
  1. Value your share: property at its property-tax value, other assets at market value.
  2. Deduct documented debts and funeral costs.
  3. Deduct the allowance: ₺2,907,136 for each child, grandchild and the spouse; ₺5,817,845 for a spouse with no descendants; ₺66,935 for gifts.
  4. Split what is left into the brackets and tax each slice at its own rate.

Example

A child inherits a ₺5,000,000 share: after the ₺2,907,136 allowance the base is ₺2,092,864. All of it falls in the first bracket, so the tax is 1%, ₺20,928.64, or ₺3,488.11 per instalment.
