Overview
Nüfus in Istanbul or Ankara, YÖK and tapu want proof the original is genuine. Turkey is a Hague country: Notarius Publicus apostilles in Sweden. The Turkish Embassy in Stockholm does not do that stamp, and apostille is not a visa. When the form requires Turkish we run authorized translation in parallel. Typical cases are civil status at Nüfus, diploma recognition via YÖK and a power of attorney for the land registry.
When needed
The request comes from Nüfus, YÖK, tapu, an employer, bank or notary. Typical cases:
Typical documents by category. Collapse a box if you want less.
The usual chain from review to return. Collapse a step if you want less.

You get the documents by tracked post, ready for Nüfus, YÖK or tapu on the ground.
