Türkiye has finalized new rules for short-term car rentals, setting age and mileage limits for vehicles while introducing licensing, fleet and deposit requirements for operators.
The regulation, published in the Official Gazette on Aug. 15, will take effect on Jan. 1, 2027.
It covers consumer rentals of up to 29 days, while long-term, business-to-business, shared and camper rentals are excluded.
Except for classic cars, vehicles more than six years old may not be rented.
The mileage ceiling will be 300,000 kilometers for fully electric vehicles and 180,000 kilometers for all others.
Vehicles with a record of severe damage, an expired inspection or no compulsory motor insurance will also be barred.
Those whose periodic maintenance is overdue may be rented only after they have been serviced.
Rental businesses will be required to obtain authorization certificates.
Existing operators must obtain authorization certificates by July 1, 2027, and meet the new fleet and vehicle standards by Jan. 1, 2028.
