Retiring from the states. All monies deposited into american banks. Will I have to pay transfer fees between banks and will the turkish government tax my income???? I was told HSNBC was best bet. Any comments will be appreciated.

@mojo1953 You always pay a transfer fee to the bank, is a % over the amount and a fix fee ( no mater the amount). I suggest you check with your local bank if they have a correspondent Bank in Turkey that represents them. First before moving your money from States, I suggest to live in the place that you choose you can in many places use your credit card. If you decide to stay ,open an a account in a renown bank , Talk to see the requirements, taxes etc. Good luck FBW
@avvuralgokhan No Turkish at all, but than again I lived in Hungary for 7 years and also no Hungarian at all. I went quite fine, the real specialists will know foreign languagues and I follow developments a little bit, bottom line (no having any income at all) I feel quite comfortably for the few years to come.
@avvuralgokhan My pension would exceed EUR 3 K pm, I think it does exceed the level you mentioned, hence my worry for the future, anyhow rules can change, for the worse as well I think a capital tax (vermoegens steuer is also likely in the coming years)
@cdw057 lets see how things will go, taxes change quickly, I am Dutch and as far as things are I will NOT return now, Bulgaria and Hungaria are looking fine, but perhaps in Turkey things will be fine as well. Happy to pay taxes and so I did and will in the future, I play with the rules, but if the rules are not good ...
