Question?

Hi,

When you apply for a work visa in Turkey there are some professions banned to Non-Turkish citizens. I pulled the information below from the Turkish Embassy website in the UK:

Occupations banned to foreigners

Diving, maritime navigation, working on ships, extracting  wreckage, exportation of fish, other sea creatures, sand and pebbles
Mining
Working as executive director in travel agencies
Professional occupations:  midwife, dentist, vet,  career, pharmacist, optician, executive director in hospitals, judge, lawyer, prosecutor, security guard, notary.

I think this is a question you probably need to ask the Turkish authorities....seems to be a bit of a grey area law. Are you a executive director if you start you own practice/hospital? Pass
