Those who wish to extend their residence period must reapply within one month (15 days before and after the current permit’s expiry date). If you’ve had residency for more than 3 years, you can then apply for five years. The procedure from application until reception of the residence permit takes between one and two weeks. You are not supposed to leave Turkey while the application is in process. In former years you had to surrender your passport to the Immigration Authority of Bodrum but this practice has been abolished. You may have to sign a declaration stating that you know you must not leave the Republic of Turkey before having received your residence permit.
