The Turkish Embassy in Oslo offers a range of legal services for Norwegian citizens with connections to Turkey. Whether you need to have documents authenticated, register a marriage, or apply for citizenship, the embassy can assist you. This article provides an overview of the most important legal services available.

Notarial Certifications

One of the most requested services at the embassy is the notarial certification of documents. This involves the embassy certifying the authenticity and validity of signatures, stamps, and seals on various types of documents intended for use in Turkey, such as powers of attorney, agreements, declarations, etc. To obtain a notarial certification, an appointment must be booked, and one must appear in person with the original documents.

Marriage Registration

Norwegian citizens who have entered into marriage in Turkey can have their marriage registered at the embassy so that it is also valid under Norwegian law. This is subject to certain conditions being met, including the marriage being validly entered into under Turkish law. The marriage is then registered in the Turkish population register. Applications for marriage registration are submitted by personal attendance after scheduling an appointment.

Citizenship

The embassy also processes applications for Turkish citizenship from Norwegian citizens, whether based on marriage to a Turkish citizen, residency in Turkey, or special reasons. The application process is extensive and requires a lot of documentation. Therefore, it is recommended to thoroughly familiarize oneself with the conditions and consult the embassy before starting the process.

Other Services

In addition, the embassy offers services such as the issuance of Turkish ID cards, registration of births and deaths, certifications for inheritance and probate, etc. Common to all these is that they require personal attendance and appointment booking. The embassy can also provide guidance on which documents are needed and how they may need to be translated and certified.

Translations

Although the embassy does not carry out the actual translation of documents, they can advise on which authorized translators can be contacted. Often, documents will need to be translated into Turkish before they can be legalized or used in Turkey. Therefore, it is important to plan well in advance and ensure that all necessary translations are ready before scheduling an appointment with the embassy.

Conclusion

The Turkish Embassy in Oslo is an important contact point for Norwegian citizens with legal matters in Turkey. By offering services such as notarial certifications, marriage registration, and processing of citizenship applications, the embassy serves as a link between two legal systems. Remember to familiarize yourself with the requirements, secure the necessary translations, and book an appointment well in advance before visiting the embassy for legal services.
