"I'm a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA/SMMM) based in Istanbul Turkey, providing accounting, tax advisory, and company formation services to both local and international clients. I work regularly with foreign residents and remote employees who need clear guidance on Turkish tax obligations, bookkeeping, and business registration — with consultations available in English and Russian, in addition to Turkish."
Umut Aymutlu — CPA / Serbest Muhasebeci Mali Müşavir
Based in Istanbul, Turkey, I provide accounting, tax, and business advisory services to individuals and companies — with a particular focus on foreign residents, remote workers, and international businesses operating in Turkey.
Services include:
Personal & corporate tax filing — annual income tax returns, VAT declarations, and compliance with Turkish tax law
Company formation — trade registry registration, chamber of commerce procedures, and setup guidance for foreign investors and entrepreneurs
Monthly bookkeeping — ongoing accounting records, receipt/invoice processing, and financial reporting
Payroll & SGK (Social Security) registration — employee registration, payroll processing, and social security compliance
Tax guidance for foreign income — specialized support for individuals receiving salary from overseas employers, including declaration requirements and applicable exemptions under Turkish tax law
General advisory — plain-language explanations of Turkish tax obligations for those unfamiliar with the local system
Many of my clients are expats and remote professionals who found Turkish bureaucracy and tax rules confusing when they first arrived. My goal is to make the process straightforward — clear explanations, no unnecessary jargon, and support in the language you're most comfortable in.
Languages: Turkish, English, and Russian (basic/conversational).
Feel free to reach out with questions about your specific situation — company setup, tax residency, or general accounting support.
