Birth, Death, Marriage Certificates
The process when a British national dies in Turkey including registering the death, funerals and cremations, and bringing the person’s body to the UK.

Criminal Record Certificates
Turkish Criminal Record Certificates (Arsiv Kayitli Adli Sicil Kaydi) can be obtained online (digital ID required). Otherwise, applications can be submitted to a branch of the General Prosecutor’s Office in Turkey or submitted to a Turkish embassy or consulate.
Most overseas authorities will require records that show both current and archived records be shown on the document (this must be specifically requested when applying). Certificates applied for online through the Turkish government website are issued digitally (with QR code) and are available in different languages.
