Opening a bank account in Turkey

Turkey is a center of tourism in Asia, due to which opening of bank accounts in Turkey is of particular interest not only for large corporations, but also for natural persons. If the main advantage of the Turkish financial system for companies is the absence of double taxation, the most important benefit for private investors is considered to be the free payment of goods and services in the territory of the Asian country without additional fees, since the payment by a bank card of any state of the CIS, the USA or Europe provides for high interests for carrying out of transactions.
