Debtors living in Turkey:
Notes for foreign creditors seeking Judgment enforcement in Turkey:
1) A foreign creditor has the right to initiate a lawsuit or an
enforcement proceeding against a debtor in Turkey even if
there is no reciprocal agreement between Turkey and the
creditor's own jurisdiction. However, in such a case the
foreign creditor will have to provide "security" to the
court to guarantee the payment of the relevant court
expenses and potential damages the debtor may sustain if the
creditor fails in proving its case. The amount of such
security is usually determined by the court to be a certain
percentage of the disputed amount. If a reciprocal agreement
exists between Turkey and the foreign creditor's own
jurisdiction, the foreign creditor may not be required to
provide security when initiating a lawsuit or an enforcement
proceeding against the debtor in Turkey.
2) Legal proceedings for a creditor that has neither security
over assets of the debtor nor any negotiable instrument
issued or endorsed by the debtor to secure the amount:
If a creditor has neither security (e.g. mortgage, movable
pledge, share pledge, bank account pledge) over assets of
the debtor nor any negotiable instrument (e.g. check,
promissory note, bill of exchange) issued or endorsed by the
debtor to secure the debt, the creditor has two choices: (i)
the creditor may directly initiate a lawsuit and after
obtaining a binding court decision initiate "binding"
enforcement proceedings against the debtor or (ii) the
creditor may immediately initiate "ordinary" enforcement
owed proceedings against the debtor. If there is any
objection from the debtor, the creditor must initiate a
lawsuit for cancellation of such objection. The enforcement
proceedings against the debtor will only continue after the
debtor's objection has been cancelled by a binding court
decision. If the court decides that the objection is
unjustified, the court may order the debtor to pay the
creditor an additional penalty of up to 40% of the disputed
amount.
3) Legal proceedings for a creditor that has security over
assets of the debtor or a negotiable instrument issued or
endorsed by the debtor to secure the amount owed:
If a creditor has security (e.g. mortgage, movable pledge,
share pledge, bank account pledge) over assets of the debtor
or a negotiable instrument (e.g. check, promissory note,
bill of exchange) issued or endorsed by the debtor to secure
the debt, the creditor may initiate "special" enforcement
proceedings against the debtor. If there is an objection
from the debtor to the enforcement proceedings, the creditor
or in some cases the debtor must initiate a lawsuit for the
continuance or, as the case may be, cancellation of the
enforcement proceedings.
4) Court fees: 5.4% of the disputed amount for a lawsuit and
0.5% of the disputed amount for enforcement proceedings:
In order to initiate a lawsuit the creditor is required to
pay 5.4% of the disputed amount to the competent court of
which one-quarter (1.35%) must be paid at the outset and the
balance (4.05%) after the judgment becomes available. For
initiating enforcement proceedings, 0.5% of the disputed
amount must be paid to the enforcement office. If the debtor
objects during the enforcement proceedings and the creditor
initiates a lawsuit for the cancellation of the objection
the above mentioned court fee (5.4%) must be paid by the
creditor. In such a case, the amount which has already been
paid to the enforcement office (0.5%) will be deducted from
the initial payment made to the court (1.35%). These court
charges are recoverable from the debtor if the creditor
obtains a favorable binding court decision.
5) Consider the timing:
If the debtor does not object, the enforcement proceedings
will usually conclude more quickly than a lawsuit. If a
lawsuit is initiated for the cancellation of an objection to
enforcement proceedings or if a lawsuit is initiated against
the debtor directly without initiating any enforcement
proceedings, court proceedings could take between 18 and 30
months but if the debtor continues to be uncooperative, in
some cases 3 to 4 years.
6) If the preferred approach of the creditor is to initiate
enforcement proceedings, then determine which type of
enforcement proceedings:
If the debt is secured by security (e.g. mortgage, moveable
pledge, share pledge, bank account pledge) the creditor will
need to initiate "Enforcement by Foreclosure of Collateral"
proceedings. If the debt is not secured, then enforcement by
way of "Ordinary Attachment" proceedings or "Ordinary
Bankruptcy" proceedings may be initiated by the creditor. If
the debt arises out of a negotiable instrument then consider
initiating "Special Proceedings for Negotiable Instruments".
7) The favorite enforcement proceedings for secured
creditors:
Due to its ease and haste compared to the other enforcement
proceedings in Turkey the "Enforcement by Foreclosure of
Collateral" proceedings is usually the preferred choice of
creditors enforcing in Turkey. The prerequisite for such
proceedings is that the creditor has been granted security
to secure the sum outstanding. The disadvantage of this
enforcement proceeding is that if it is available to a
creditor, the creditor may not resort to other enforcement
or court proceedings before it enforces its security. If the
sale proceeds of the security does not satisfy the claim of
the creditor, only then can the creditor initiate other
proceedings against the debtor.
8) Determine whether the debtor has sufficiently valuable
assets to attach before initiating attachment proceedings:
A creditor should always be mindful of the nature of the
assets of the debtor, the whereabouts of such assets and
whether such assets are already the subject of other court
proceedings, attachments or encumbrances:
In order to attach any assets in Turkey enforcement
proceedings must be initiated before the competent
enforcement office. After finalization of such enforcement
proceedings the assets of the debtor may only be attached
through the enforcement office. Foreclosure of such assets
may only be made by the enforcement office by way of public
and not private sales. However, if the enforcement
proceedings are initiated further to a binding court
decision, then the attachment proceeding will be implemented
directly without waiting for finalization of enforcement
proceedings before the enforcement office.
9) Be wary of the debtor applying for protection in
bankruptcy proceedings:
Under certain circumstances, if bankruptcy proceedings are
initiated against a debtor, the debtor may seek protection
through (i) Reorganization, (ii) Postponement of Bankruptcy
or (iii) Restructuring of Capital Stock Companies by Way of
Conciliation. The debtor may apply for protection from a
court to prevent any enforcement proceedings and lawsuits
being filed against the debtor by seeking protection from
creditors through any of (i), (ii) or (iii) mentioned above.
10) Obtaining a preliminary injunction decision from a
Turkish court against the debtor:
Under Turkish law it is possible to obtain a preliminary
injunction decision before or during an enforcement
proceeding or a lawsuit in relation to the assets of the
debtor to obtain rights against such assets for amounts owed
that are not secured by way of a security. Obtaining a
preliminary injunction from the court will depend on the
nature of the debt and the evidence provided by the
applicant to persuade the court that in the circumstances
injunctive relief is appropriate.
For example, if the applicant holds a negotiable instrument
(e.g. check, promissory note, bill of exchange) issued or
endorsed by the debtor, a Turkish court is likely to require
the applicant to provide security to the court of between
15% and 100% of the disputed amount. If the preliminary
injunction has been granted before initiating an enforcement
proceeding or a lawsuit against the debtor, the creditor is
obliged to initiate either enforcement proceedings or a
lawsuit against the debtor no later than 10 days after the
preliminary injunction has been granted. Otherwise, the
preliminary injunction decision becomes invalid.
11) Recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments
and foreign arbitral awards in Turkey:
Pursuant to Turkish International Private Law, a foreign
court judgment must fulfil the following conditions to be
enforced in Turkey: (i) reciprocity, (ii) the judgment must
have become final and binding, (iii) the dispute must not
fall within the exclusive jurisdiction of Turkish courts,
(vi) compliance with Turkish public policy rules and (v) the
judgment debtor's rights must have been respected during the
trial.
Turkey has signed the New York Convention on the Recognition
and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (NY Convention).
Therefore, arbitral awards obtained from a contracting state
of the NY Convention, will be recognized and enforced in
Turkey under the NY Convention.
The bankruptcy of a Turkish individual or corporation,
however, falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the
Turkish courts. Therefore, the bankruptcy of a Turkish
individual or corporation may not be the subject of either a
foreign court decision or an arbitral award."
To enforce a judgment where the debtor absconded to Turkey, one needs:
1. Certified copy of the judgment (cannot be a "default")
2. Certified copy of the writ of execution
3. Certified copy of the assignment
4. Supporting documents that would provide verification that the JD fled
the country to avoid the debt.
All being enforced at this time.
