Obviously, expat life in Turkey is not only about packing boxes and getting some paperwork done. The regular exchange with German compatriots is also an important aspect of the expat experience to get accustomed to the Turkish culture and people. InterNations helps you to get to know and exchange with other Germans in Turkey, living in Istanbul, Ankara, Antalya and many other places across the country. Just visit our network of Germans in Ankara or Germans in Istanbul.

So, if you should ever feel like speaking your German mother tongue, finding out where to shop for German food or chatting about Borussia Dortmund's latest match, join the Turkish InterNations Community:

  • Browse our high-quality expat network to find like-minded expatriates from Germany or German-speaking expats in Turkey.
  • Receive and share advice in our Turkey Expat Forums – e.g. how to find a German-speaking nanny for your kids or where to shop for whole-grain bread and home-brewed beer in Istanbul.
  • Browse the InterNations Expat Guide for Turkey to find institutions like the local Goethe-Institut or the nearest German embassy.

From Aegean Turkey, between the azure sea and silvery olive groves, to the Bosporus, we’ll get you in touch with helpful and friendly German expats in Turkey.

In addition, you are cordially invited to participate in our regular expat events and excursions taking place in Turkey.
