Rent Increase Rate Calculator
The rent increase rate in Turkey determines the legal cap on residential lease renewals. Under Article 344 of the Turkish Code of Obligations, annual rent increases for residential properties cannot exceed the 12-month average CPI published by the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK).
Our tool uses the latest official CPI data to automatically calculate the maximum legal rent increase applicable to your current rent.
How Is the Rent Increase Rate Calculated?
The residential rent increase rate is determined by the 12-month average CPI as specified in Article 344 of the Turkish Code of Obligations. TUIK publishes inflation data at the beginning of each month, from which the 12-month average CPI rate is derived.
Residential vs. Commercial Rent Increases
The CPI 12-month average cap applies only to residential leases. For commercial properties, parties are free to agree on any increase rate.
What If the Landlord Demands More?
If your landlord requests a rent increase above the 12-month average CPI, you are not legally obligated to accept it. The Code of Obligations sets the CPI 12-month average as the upper limit for residential rents.
