Türkiye has published a list of 29 professions that foreign nationals are legally prohibited from practising, with restrictions covering healthcare, law, education, private security, finance, tourism, transport and maritime services.

The restrictions apply to foreign nationals regardless of their qualifications or professional experience and are backed by specific national laws and regulations.

According to a report published on MSN, Microsoft’s online news platform on Thursday, the Turkish government clarified that the prohibitions are legal restrictions rather than temporary administrative decisions.

The development provides foreign nationals seeking employment in Türkiye with a clearer understanding of occupations they are legally permitted to pursue.

Several healthcare occupations are restricted to Turkish nationals under the country’s legal framework.

These include dentistry, medical services and veterinary medicine. Foreign nationals are also prohibited from working as hospital care workers or serving as responsible managers of private hospitals.

Other restricted healthcare positions include supervisors and licence holders of independent healthcare units.

The legal profession is also largely closed to foreign nationals, with restrictions covering lawyers, notaries, judges, prosecutors, civil dispute mediators and concordat commissioners.

These provisions prevent foreigners from occupying the listed professional positions within Türkiye’s formal justice system.
