I received an expat contract from AYAZLI Corporation. Read through it and looks good. However in one of the clauses the following is stated;
"10.0 Non-Turkish Residents:
Ayazli Oil & Gas Corporation will provide Non–Turkish Resident Employee with Four (4)
Years Multiple Entry Turkish Work Visa (or family Visa if any) with Resident permit and will
also bear the cost of flight ticket for employee to arrive Turkey to assume duty but due to
the recent inflow of illegal immigrant to Turkey it is mandatory that Non-Turkish Resident
employee should put down the stipulated security deposit as was stated by the immigration
department to enable them grant employee Turkish Work Visa in compliance with the
Republic of Turkey AND European Union Terrorism and Border Control Act."
This kind of looked strange as most companies take care of all expenses pertaining to paperwork for obtaining work and residence visa.
Can anyone offer information on this?
