Grounds for revocation may include the termination of the employment relationship, the foreigner working outside the scope of the permit, the subsequent realization that forged or misleading documents were used in the application, the failure to extend passport validity, adverse institutional opinions regarding public order or security, and the foreigner remaining outside Turkey for periods longer than those specified in the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Work cannot be continued based on a revoked work permit. The employer or the self-employed foreigner is obliged to notify the Ministry within 15 days of the circumstances requiring the revocation of the permit. An objection may be filed with the Ministry against the revocation decision within 30 days from the date of notification; in the event of the rejection of the objection, recourse to administrative judicial review is available. However, the revocation of a work permit does not in every case mean an automatic deportation decision. Whether the foreigner has a separate valid residence permit, protection status, or another legal right to stay must be evaluated separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the general legal structure of a work permit, <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/yabanci-calisma-izni\/\">our foreign work permit guide<\/a> you may review. This article does not discuss the rejection of a pending application, <strong>but rather the subsequent revocation of an already granted work permit<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Reddi_ile_Calisma_Izninin_Iptali_Arasindaki_Fark\"><\/span>The Difference Between Work Permit Rejection and Work Permit Revocation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rejection and revocation are not the same administrative action. <strong>In the rejection of a work permit application,<\/strong> no valid permit has yet been established on behalf of the foreigner. The Ministry reviews the initial application or extension request and denies the issuance of a permit. <strong>In the revocation of a work permit,<\/strong> however, a permit has previously been issued for the foreigner; yet, this permit loses its validity due to a subsequently arising or subsequently discovered ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Comparison<\/th><th>Rejection of a work permit application<\/th><th>The revocation of a work permit<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Timing of the action<\/td><td>Before the permit is issued<\/td><td>After the permit has been issued<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Existing permit<\/td><td>There is no work permit generated based on the application<\/td><td>There is a previously granted valid permit<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Legal basis<\/td><td>Law No. 6735 art. 9<\/td><td>Law No. 6735 art. 15<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Typical ground<\/td><td>Lack of criteria, document, fee, qualification, or employment justification<\/td><td>Termination of employment, unauthorized work, subsequent discovery of fraudulent documents, or security notification<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Impact on the right to work<\/td><td>The application does not confer the requested right to work<\/td><td>The existing right to work is terminated upon the cancellation procedure<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>New application<\/td><td>A re-application may be submitted after rectifying the ground for rejection.<\/td><td>The outcome of a new application cannot be predicted without examining the grounds for revocation and the foreign national's current status.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Recourse method<\/td><td>30-day administrative appeal and administrative judiciary<\/td><td>30-day administrative appeal and administrative judiciary<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For detailed information regarding the grounds for rejection, 2026 evaluation criteria, and re-application, <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/calisma-izni-basvurusunun-reddi\/\">rejection of the work permit application<\/a> you may review our article. Both contents address different legal proceedings and distinct user inquiries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Izin_suresinin_dolmasi_iptal_midir\"><\/span>Is the expiration of the permit period considered a revocation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. The expiration of a temporary work permit on the end date specified on the card is, as a rule, the expiration of the permit period. Revocation, on the other hand, refers to the termination of validity by the Ministry based on a legal ground while the permit period is still ongoing. If employment with the same employer is to continue before the expiration of the period, an extension procedure must be carried out. Application timing and the 90-day temporary work continuation <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/calisma-izni-uzatma-basvurusu\/\">work permit extension application<\/a> is explained in our article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Isverenin_iptal_talebi_ile_Bakanligin_resen_iptali_ayni_midir\"><\/span>Are the employer's request for revocation and the Ministry's ex officio revocation the same thing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The employer's notification of the situation to the Ministry upon the termination of the employment relationship differs in material process from the public institution notification or the Ministry's execution of proceedings on its own initiative as a result of an audit. However, in both cases, the foreign national cannot work based on a revoked permit document. The employer's notification does not replace the fulfillment of other obligations regarding the termination of the employment contract and social security records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izninin_Iptalinin_Hukuki_Dayanagi\"><\/span>Legal Basis for the Revocation of a Work Permit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The expiration and revocation of a work permit are regulated under Article 15 of the International Labour Law No. 6735. A rejection decision, on the other hand, is based on Article 9 of the same Law. This distinction between the two articles also leads to differences in the objections and evidence to be prepared against the decision.

The act must be based on a legal ground, enacted by the competent authority, duly notified to the concerned party, and connected to the specific case. Particularly when relying on broad concepts such as public order and security, it is crucial that the justification is specific to the file and amenable to judicial review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Hangi_Durumlarda_Iptal_Edilir\"><\/span>Under What Circumstances Is a Work Permit Revoked?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Article 15 of Law No. 6735 sets forth the grounds for cancellation regarding different types of permits. It should not be assumed that every ground will be applied in the same manner; the type of permit, the employment relationship, the status of the foreign national, and the date of the incident must be examined collectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Ground for cancellation<\/th><th>Matter to be investigated in the specific case<\/th><th>Main evidence<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Failure to enter Turkey within six months<\/td><td>Start date of the permit's validity and actual date of entry<\/td><td>Passport, entry-exit records, permit document<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Failure to extend the passport validity<\/td><td>Current validity of the document and, if applicable, the relevant institutional opinion<\/td><td>Old and new passports, application and institutional correspondence<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Unlawful employment<\/td><td>Authorized employer, workplace, address, duties, and actual employment<\/td><td>Inspection report, SGK record, contract, payroll<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Termination of employment<\/td><td>Termination of the employment contract and actual last day of work<\/td><td>Termination or resignation, SGK termination of employment, workplace closure record<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Counterfeit or misleading document<\/td><td>Authenticity of the document and its impact on the outcome of the application<\/td><td>Institution verification, diploma, financial record, expert examination<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Loss of Turquoise Card conditions<\/td><td>Transitional period obligations and qualifications of the cardholder<\/td><td>Activity, investment, academic, and professional documents<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Obstacles within the scope of YUKK<\/td><td>Legal basis for entry, visa, deportation, or immigration records<\/td><td>Directorate of Migration Management records, travel bans (tahdit), and decision notifications<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Public order, security, or health<\/td><td>Concrete and current grounds for the negative assessment<\/td><td>Institutional opinion, judicial-administrative records, court decisions<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Residing outside of Turkey for an extended period<\/td><td>Permit type, uninterrupted duration of stay abroad, and statutory exemptions<\/td><td>Entry-exit records, health\/education\/public service documents<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Izin_baslangicindan_itibaren_alti_ay_icinde_Turkiyeye_gelmemek\"><\/span>Failure to arrive in Turkey within six months from the start date of the permit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even if a work permit has been issued, particularly in applications made from abroad, the failure of the foreigner to enter Turkey within six months from the validity start date of the permit constitutes grounds for cancellation. Crucial here is not the date of application, but the validity start date of the issued permit and official entry records. If a visa or travel impediment is claimed, this must be documented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pasaport_veya_pasaport_yerine_gecen_belgenin_gecerliligini_uzatmamak\"><\/span>Failure to extend the validity of the passport or substitute document<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The loss of validity of the foreigner's identity and travel document may affect the continuation of the permit record. Statutory exemptions regarding the favorable opinion of the Ministry of Interior or Ministry of Foreign Affairs are reserved. If the passport has been renewed, the new document must be updated in the system records in a timely manner, and a seamless connection must be established between the old and new passport information for the foreigner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_kapsamina_aykiri_calismak\"><\/span>Working in violation of the scope of the work permit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Timed and dependent work permits are mostly issued for a specific employer, workplace, address, and position. Determining that the foreigner works for another employer, in a job substantially different from the scope of the permit, or at a workplace other than the notified one may lead to cancellation. The fact that the validity date of the permit card continues does not grant the foreigner the freedom to work at any workplace of their choosing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How to interpret the limitations on the permit document <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/calisma-izni-serhleri-nedir\/\">work permit annotations<\/a> is explained in our article. According to the official statement of the Ministry, a new work permit is required to transition to another employer. The assumption that the existing permit can be used with a new employer may lead to the risk of unauthorized employment for both the foreign national and the employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_iliskisinin_veya_calismanin_sona_ermesi\"><\/span>Termination of the employment relationship or work<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The resignation of the foreign national, termination of the employment contract, expiration of a fixed-term contract, closure of the workplace, or the cessation of actual work by the foreign national may eliminate the legal basis of the permit. Just as the employer is not obligated to employ the foreign national until the end of the work permit period, a foreign national whose employment relationship has ended does not have the right to work for another employer based on the date on the card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The termination of the employment contract does not mean that employment receivables and termination-related rights are also eliminated. The work permit procedure and the consequences under labor law, such as severance pay, notice pay, wages, annual paid leave, and other rights, are evaluated in accordance with separate legislation. Furthermore, the permit cancellation notification and the SSI (Social Security Institution) termination notification are not substitutes for one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sahte_veya_yaniltici_bilgi_ve_belgenin_sonradan_anlasilmasi\"><\/span>Subsequent discovery of fraudulent or misleading information and documents<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If it is understood after the issuance of the work permit that fraudulent or misleading documents were used regarding the diploma, equivalency certificate, passport, employment contract, company financial records, employment information, or the professional experience of the foreign national, the permit may be canceled. This situation demonstrates that the initial favorable outcome of the application does not create an acquired and inviolable right. The impact of the document on the outcome of the application and the knowledge of the foreign national and the employer are examined separately in each specific case; situations that may give rise to criminal liability are also distinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turkuaz_Kart_gecis_donemi_yukumluluklerine_uymamak\"><\/span>Failure to comply with Turkuaz Kart transition period obligations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Failure to submit the information and documents requested by the Ministry within the transition period of the Turkuaz Kart, or the loss of the qualifications that were instrumental in the issuance of the card, may lead to the cancellation of the card. For the holder of a Turkuaz Kart, the permissible duration of stay outside Turkey is also subject to different rules compared to standard work permits. Permit types must not be confused with one another.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For detailed information regarding the transition period, notification obligations of the cardholder, the indefinite Turkuaz Kart, and grounds for cancellation <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/turkuaz-kart\/\">Turquoise Card 2026<\/a> you may review our guide.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Goc_mevzuatindan_kaynaklanan_iptal_nedenleri\"><\/span>Grounds for cancellation arising from migration legislation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notification by the Presidency of Migration Management that the foreign national falls within the scope of the entry, visa, or deportation provisions of the Law on Foreigners and International Protection No. 6458 may affect the work permit. However, the cancellation of a work permit and a deportation decision are not the same administrative act. The competent authority, legal basis, notification, and application deadline for each act must be examined separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a deportation decision has also been issued against the foreigner <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/sinir-disi-karari\/\">deportation decision and annulment lawsuit<\/a> the time limits and legal remedies in our guide must be taken into consideration. It should not be assumed that an appeal against the revocation of a work permit will serve as an application against a deportation decision issued by a different authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kamu_duzeni_kamu_guvenligi_veya_kamu_sagligi\"><\/span>Public order, public security, or public health<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The notification by relevant public institutions and organizations that the foreigner poses a risk in terms of public order, public security, or public health regarding their employment in Turkey may constitute grounds for revocation. However, the term \"public security\" does not grant the administration an unlimited and unchecked domain. The action must be based on a concrete, current, and legally reviewable ground connected to the specific case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turkiye_disinda_kesintisiz_uzun_sure_kalmak\"><\/span>Remaining outside of Turkey continuously for a long period<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Staying outside of Turkey continuously for more than six months in the case of work permits with a fixed duration, or for more than one year in the case of independent and indefinite work permits, may lead to revocation. Force majeure and special circumstances accepted by law must be evaluated separately. Entry-exit records, the beginning of the continuous period, and documents showing the reason for staying abroad are important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Isten_Ayrilan_Yabancinin_Calisma_Izni_Ne_Olur\"><\/span>What Happens to the Work Permit of a Foreign Employee Who Leaves Their Job?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a work permit with a fixed duration is issued subject to a specific employer, the termination of the employment relationship eliminates the basis for the permit. The presence of a later expiration date on the card does not grant the foreign employee the right to remain unemployed or work for another employer until that date. The new employer must submit a new work permit application on behalf of the foreigner based on its own workplace and job conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Incident<\/th><th>Effect on the work permit<\/th><th>What needs to be done<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>The foreigner resigned<\/td><td>The basis for dependent employment ceases to exist<\/td><td>The employer and the foreigner carry out labor law procedures through notification.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The employer terminated the contract<\/td><td>A situation requiring revocation may arise.<\/td><td>The 15-day Ministry notification and SSI (SGK) deregistration are performed separately.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The fixed-term contract has expired.<\/td><td>The employment relationship has terminated even if the leave period continues.<\/td><td>De facto and legal termination records are aligned.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The foreigner transferred to another employer.<\/td><td>The previous work permit does not cover the new employer.<\/td><td>A new work permit is obtained through the new employer.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The workplace has closed down.<\/td><td>The workplace and employer basis of the permit is eliminated.<\/td><td>Closure, SSI (SGK), and permit notifications are made.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important that the new employer's application is a new application subject to the initial application procedure, rather than an \"extension\". Commencing work at the new workplace without revoking the previous permit does not become lawful. The Ministry's <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csgb.gov.tr\/sikca-sorulan-sorular\/uluslararasi-%C4%B1sgucu-genel-mudurlugu\/calisma-%C4%B1zni\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">on the frequently asked questions page regarding work permits<\/a> It is explained that the permits are issued for a specific job, workplace, and address.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The existing work permit cannot be transferred to another employer. In order for the foreigner to work with a new employer, an application must be made through the new employer. Regarding the application procedure and the status of the former permit <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/calisma-izninde-isveren-degisikligi\/\">employer change in work permit<\/a> you may review our guide.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Iptal_Bildirimi_ve_15_Gunluk_Sure\"><\/span>Work Permit Revocation Notice and the 15-Day Period<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Employers employing foreigners and foreigners holding work permits independent of an employer are obliged to notify the Ministry within 15 days of the commencement and termination of work, as well as any circumstances requiring the cancellation of the permit. This period should not be confused with the expiration date written on the permit card. The date on which the event subject to notification occurred and the time it was learned must be established with concrete documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Resignation or termination document,<\/li><li>Termination date of the employment contract,<\/li><li>SSI (SGK) employment termination declaration,<\/li><li>Workplace closure or transfer records,<\/li><li>New employer or address information of the foreigner,<\/li><li>The registration and tracking number of the notification made via e-Permit must be retained.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making a notification does not eliminate wage and social security obligations accrued until the date of cancellation of the work permit. Commencement and termination notifications, as well as SSI transactions, may have different systems and legal bases. To ensure compliance of the wages, contracts, and records declared in the work permit application <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/yabanci-calisanlarda-ucret-kriterleri-2026\/\">wage criteria for foreign employees<\/a> our article may be reviewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Iptal_Edilen_Yabanci_Calismaya_Devam_Edebilir_mi\"><\/span>Can a Foreigner Whose Work Permit Has Been Revoked Continue to Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. As long as the cancellation decision remains in effect, the foreigner cannot continue to work based on the canceled document. Filing an objection with the Ministry or filing an annulment lawsuit does not automatically stay the execution of the administrative act. For work to continue, there must be an additional legally valid permit, a stay of execution decision issued by a court, or another applicable legal basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The foreigner continuing to work de facto at the same workplace may create the risk of unauthorized employment audits and administrative sanctions for both the foreigner and the employer. Therefore, the ongoing objection process should not be interpreted as the continuation of the right to work.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continuing to work on the basis of a revoked work permit may give rise to unauthorized employment sanctions for both the foreign national and the employer. For administrative fines, SSI (SGK) consequences, and employer liability, <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/izinsiz-yabanci-calistirma-cezasi\/\">penalty for employing unauthorized foreigners 2026<\/a> you may review our article.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izninin_Iptali_Ikamet_Hakkini_Nasil_Etkiler\"><\/span>How Does the Revocation of a Work Permit Affect Residence Rights?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pursuant to Article 27 of Law No. 6458, a valid work permit generally replaces a residence permit. Therefore, if the work permit is the foreign national's sole legal basis for staying in Turkey, this basis for residence terminates when the permit is revoked. However, it cannot be concluded from this that every foreign national will be automatically deported upon revocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The foreign national may also possess a valid residence permit, a visa or visa exemption period, international protection status, temporary protection registration, or another right of stay. Furthermore, work permits issued to international protection applicants, conditional refugees, and foreign nationals under temporary protection do not replace a residence permit in any case. The stay of such persons in the country is evaluated in accordance with their respective status legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Status of the foreign national<\/th><th>Residence effect of the revocation<\/th><th>To be checked<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Work permit as the sole basis of stay<\/td><td>The basis replacing the residence permit terminates<\/td><td>New legal stay opportunity and obligation to depart<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>There is also a valid residence permit<\/td><td>The validity of the residence permit shall be examined separately<\/td><td>Permit type, duration, and reason for revocation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Under temporary protection<\/td><td>A work permit does not replace a residence permit<\/td><td>Continuation of temporary protection registration<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>International protection applicant or conditional refugee<\/td><td>A work permit is not the basis of residence status<\/td><td>Status of the protection file and the obligation to reside in the assigned province<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Additionally, there is a deportation decision<\/td><td>It constitutes a separate administrative procedure and has a distinct application process<\/td><td>Notification date and special limitation period for filing a lawsuit<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For staying in Turkey without a work permit and domestic application conditions, <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/ikamet-izni-olmadan-calisma-izni-alinir-mi\/\">can a work permit be obtained without a residence permit?<\/a> you may refer to our article. Although the right to reside and work may be combined in a single document, the two outcomes must be established separately in the legal review.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the right of stay in the country for foreigners under temporary protection and international protection does not directly rely on a work permit, the consequences of permit revocation must be evaluated separately for these statuses. For detailed information, <a href=\"https:\/\/batinyilmaz.av.tr\/en\/gecici-koruma-uluslararasi-koruma-calisma-hakki\/\">right to work for holders of temporary protection and international protection<\/a> you may review our guide.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izninin_Iptali_Otomatik_Sinir_Disi_Sebebi_midir\"><\/span>Is the Revocation of a Work Permit Grounds for Automatic Deportation?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The revocation of a work permit does not constitute a deportation decision rendered on its own. A deportation decision is separately issued and notified by the governorship pursuant to Law No. 6458. However, if the termination of the foreigner's legal basis of stay, working without authorization, or the grounds for revocation simultaneously constitute a ground for deportation under YUKK, a separate proceeding may arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Particularly in permit revocations based on public order or security grounds, it must be further investigated whether there is an entry ban, restriction record, or deportation decision against the foreigner. A definitive conclusion regarding all immigration law consequences should not be formed solely by examining the \"revocation\" record in the work permit system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izninin_Iptaline_Karsi_Itiraz\"><\/span>Appeal Against the Revocation of a Work Permit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pursuant to Article 21 of Law No. 6735, an objection may be lodged against the Ministry's decision regarding the revocation of a work permit within 30 days from the date of service. The objection must be prepared with explanations and documents that directly address the grounds for revocation. Instead of general statements such as \"the procedure is unlawful,\" the factual circumstances and statutory provisions forming the basis of the revocation must be separately addressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If the continuation of the employment relationship is asserted, the contract, payroll, SSI (SGK), and actual work records,<\/li><li>If unauthorized work is alleged, assignment, address, and workplace records,<\/li><li>In cases of prolonged stays abroad, entry-exit records and, if any, documents regarding force majeure,<\/li><li>In passport issues, the renewal application and the new passport,<\/li><li>In allegations of forged documents, the verification of the document from the issuing institution,<\/li><li>In grounds of public security, judicial and administrative records as well as favorable decisions may be submitted.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official statement of the Ministry indicates that objections can be filed within 30 days against rejection, revocation, and termination decisions, and that in the event of the rejection of the objection, recourse may be made to the administrative judiciary. Filing an objection does not mean that work can automatically continue based on the revoked permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Iptal_Davasi\"><\/span>Work Permit Revocation Lawsuit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If it is considered that the revocation decision is unlawful, an annulment action may be filed in the administrative court. The general statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit is 60 days starting from the day following the written notification. The effect of the application made to the Ministry on the litigation period and the calculation of the remaining time must be determined based on specific notification dates. Incorrect calculation of periods may result in the loss of rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An annulment action does not automatically stay the execution of the administrative act. To obtain a stay of execution, the conditions set forth in the Administrative Litigation Procedure Law No. 2577 must be jointly explained in the specific case. The mere fact that the foreigner's work and residence status are affected does not provide automatic acceptance; the clear unlawfulness of the act and the damages that are difficult or impossible to compensate that may arise upon its execution must be demonstrated with evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Iptal_davasinda_hangi_unsurlar_incelenir\"><\/span>Which elements are examined in an annulment action?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Jurisdiction:<\/strong> Was the administrative act issued by the competent administrative authority?<\/li><li><strong>Form:<\/strong> Were the requirements regarding statutory procedure, notification, and justification observed?<\/li><li><strong>Ground:<\/strong> Is the factual basis underlying the revocation real, current, and proven?<\/li><li><strong>Subject Matter:<\/strong> Does the established event produce the revocation outcome prescribed by law?<\/li><li><strong>Objective:<\/strong> Was the authority exercised in accordance with the public interest and the purpose of the law?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Administrative courts do not conduct a review of expediency and do not substitute themselves for the administration to issue a work permit. The court reviews the legality of the revocation act. In the event of a revocation ruling, the administration is obligated to fulfill the requirements of the court decision; however, the foreigner's current status and new legal events arising in the intervening period may be evaluated separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Emsal_Karar_Soyut_Istihbari_Bilgi_Calisma_Izni_Iptali_Icin_Yeterli_midir\"><\/span>Precedent Ruling: Is Abstract Intelligence Information Sufficient for the Revocation of a Work Permit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/app.apilex.ai\/shared-document\/danistay_10_daire_2022-06-22_2017-3116_2022-3433.md?type=TR_ICTIHAT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The decision of the 10th Chamber of the Council of State (Dan\u0131\u015ftay), E. 2017\/3116, K. 2022\/3433, dated 22.06.2022,<\/a>is significant regarding the substantiation of the ground element of the act in the revocation of a work permit on grounds of public security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Review title<\/th><th>Evaluation in the decision<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Fats and circumstances of the case<\/td><td>A foreign national who is a citizen of the Russian Federation obtained a limited work permit to work in a company after completing higher education in Turkey.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Grounds for annulment<\/td><td>In the intelligence information note transmitted after the permit was granted, it was reported that the foreigner's employment might be objectionable and that they had connections with certain structures.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Legal issue<\/td><td>It was discussed whether an intelligence assessment unsupported by concrete evidence is sufficient on its own for the revocation of a work permit.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Council of State approach<\/td><td>It was evaluated that public authorities must present sufficient and serious data within the concrete case to the judicial authority in actions based on national security, and that the information in the case file was not supported by other concrete facts.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Conclusion<\/td><td>The first instance court's decision to dismiss the lawsuit was reversed; the outcome was in favor of the foreigner.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Karardan_cikarilabilecek_hukuki_sonuc\"><\/span>Legal conclusion to be drawn from the decision<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The decision does not mean that intelligence information can never serve as a basis for an administrative action. The main issue is whether the information is connected to the concrete case, its seriousness, timeliness, and whether it is supported to an extent that allows for judicial review. Citing the safeguards in the Constitutional Court's decision dated 16.12.2020 and numbered 2018\/6143, the Council of State emphasized that abstract assessments should not be deemed sufficient on their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It cannot be said that this jurisprudence automatically renders every annulment based on security grounds unlawful. Should the administration present concrete, serious, and auditable information, the outcome of the dispute may differ. Therefore, the precedent decision should not be used as a \u201cguarantee of outcome\u201d without comparing the material facts of the case file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Iptal_Dosyasi_Icin_Kontrol_Listesi\"><\/span>Checklist for Work Permit Revocation Files<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Have the annulment decision and the notification document been obtained completely?<\/li><li>Is the administrative action a rejection, an annulment, or the expiration of the statutory period?<\/li><li>Which subparagraph of Law No. 6735 was indicated in the decision?<\/li><li>On what date did the event underlying the annulment occur?<\/li><li>On what date did the employment contract and actual employment cease?<\/li><li>Was the 15-day notification obligation fulfilled in a timely manner?<\/li><li>Are the SSI (SGK) termination record and the Ministry notification consistent with each other?<\/li><li>Did the foreign national work within the scope of the permitted employer, workplace, address, and job assignment?<\/li><li>Have the passport and entry-exit records been examined?<\/li><li>In the event of a stay abroad, have the uninterrupted period and force majeure been determined?<\/li><li>Has the document alleged to be forged or misleading been verified by the official institution?<\/li><li>Are the concrete grounds for the justification of public order or security known?<\/li><li>Does the foreign national also hold a valid residence or protection status?<\/li><li>Is there a separate restriction, entry ban, or deportation decision?<\/li><li>Were the 30-day appeal period and the 60-day litigation period calculated correctly?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_Izni_Iptalinde_Sik_Yapilan_Hatalar\"><\/span>Common Mistakes in Work Permit Revocations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Mistaking the rejection of an application for the revocation of a granted permit.<\/li><li>Assuming that the permit can be used after resigning from employment simply because the date on the card is still valid.<\/li><li>Starting to work for a new employer with an old work permit.<\/li><li>Failing to notify the Ministry of the termination of the employment relationship within 15 days.<\/li><li>Assuming that the SSI (SGK) employment termination notification automatically completes the notification to the Ministry.<\/li><li>Thinking that the foreign national's right to work automatically continues upon filing an appeal.<\/li><li>Interpreting the revocation decision automatically as a deportation decision.<\/li><li>Failing to also examine the foreigner's existing residence or protection status.<\/li><li>Focusing solely on the outcome of the criminal court regarding the grounds of public security.<\/li><li>Preparing the appeal with general statements instead of documents specific to the grounds for annulment.<\/li><li>Assuming that an annulment action automatically stays the administrative act.<\/li><li>Confusing work permit disputes with employment receivables.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sik_Sorulan_Sorular\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izninin_iptali_ne_demektir\"><\/span>What does the revocation of a work permit mean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is the invalidation of a previously issued valid work permit by the Ministry before its expiration due to the emergence of a statutory ground for revocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_reddi_ile_iptali_ayni_sey_midir\"><\/span>Are the refusal and the revocation of a work permit the same thing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Refusal is the negative conclusion of an application before a permit is granted. Revocation, on the other hand, is the termination of a previously granted and valid permit at a later date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Isten_ayrilinca_calisma_izni_otomatik_iptal_olur_mu\"><\/span>Does a work permit get automatically revoked upon quitting a job?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The termination of the employment relationship is a statutory ground for revocation and must be notified to the Ministry. The remaining validity period on the card does not grant the foreign national the right to work with the same permit after leaving the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Isveren_calisma_iznini_iptal_ettirebilir_mi\"><\/span>Can the employer request the revocation of the work permit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The employer shall notify the Ministry of circumstances requiring the termination of the foreigner's employment and the cancellation of the permit. Administrative records and cancellation procedures regarding the permit fall under the authority of the Ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_iptal_bildirimi_kac_gun_icinde_yapilir\"><\/span>Within how many days must the notification of work permit cancellation be made?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Employers and independent work permit holders are obligated to notify the Ministry within 15 days of any circumstances requiring the termination of employment or the cancellation of the permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_iptal_edilen_yabanci_baska_isyerinde_calisabilir_mi\"><\/span>Can a foreigner whose work permit has been cancelled work in another workplace?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. A cancelled permit does not grant the right to work in any workplace. A new work permit must be obtained for that employer and position before starting to work under a new employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izninin_iptali_ikamet_hakkini_sona_erdirir_mi\"><\/span>Does the cancellation of a work permit terminate the right of residence?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the work permit, which serves as a substitute for a residence permit, is the foreigner's sole basis for staying, this basis ceases to exist. However, if there is a separate valid residence permit, visa, protection status, or another right of stay, the situation is evaluated separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_iptal_edilince_yabanci_hemen_sinir_disi_edilir_mi\"><\/span>Is the foreigner immediately deported when their work permit is cancelled?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. The cancellation of a permit is not the same procedure as a deportation decision. However, if the foreigner no longer has a legal right to stay, or if there is a separate ground for deportation under YUKK, a separate decision may be issued by the governorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_iptaline_kac_gun_icinde_itiraz_edilir\"><\/span>Within how many days must an objection be filed against the cancellation of a work permit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An objection may be filed with the Ministry of Labour and Social Security within 30 days from the date of notification of the cancellation decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itiraz_edilmesi_calisma_hakkini_devam_ettirir_mi\"><\/span>Does filing an objection allow the right to work to continue?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. An administrative appeal does not automatically stay the execution of the revocation act. There must be a separate legal basis for the foreigner to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calisma_izni_iptal_davasi_acilinca_izin_yeniden_gecerli_olur_mu\"><\/span>Does the work permit become valid again when a lawsuit is filed for the revocation of the work permit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Filing a lawsuit does not automatically stay the act. The court must issue a stay of execution or a cancellation decision, and that decision must be enforced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yurt_disinda_uzun_sure_kalmak_calisma_iznini_iptal_ettirir_mi\"><\/span>Does staying abroad for a long period result in the revocation of the work permit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Staying abroad exceeding six consecutive months for a temporary permit, or one consecutive year for independent and permanent permits, may constitute grounds for revocation. The permit type and statutory exceptions must be examined separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sonuc\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike the rejection of a work permit application, the revocation of a work permit terminates an existing and valid right to work. Termination of the employment relationship, working outside the scope of the permit, subsequent discovery of forged or misleading documents, passport and entry issues, prolonged stays abroad, and immigration or security records may constitute grounds for revocation. The situation requiring revocation must be reported to the Ministry within 15 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following the revocation, the foreigner cannot continue working with the same document. However, the revocation of a work permit does not constitute an automatic deportation decision; residence, protection, and immigration statuses must be evaluated separately. If it is believed that the decision is unlawful, the 30-day appeal period starting from notification and administrative judicial remedies must be pursued based on the specific case.
