Water Application

ISKI is the public water and sewage authority in Istanbul. To apply for water connection in Istanbul, you need to contact ISKI and provide the necessary documents. Here are the required documents:

• The original and a photocopy of the property’s title deed (tapu)
• A copy of the property owner’s Turkish ID card or passport (if a foreigner)
• A copy of the Turkish ID card or passport of the person who will sign the contract with ISKI (if different from the property owner)
• A completed application form obtained from ISKI
• A letter of commitment that the property owner will pay for the water bills
• Proof of payment of the water connection fee (the fee varies depending on the property’s location and size)
• If the property is part of a housing complex, a document from the management indicating that the complex has a water subscription and that the property’s share of the subscription fee has been paid.

It’s important to note that the process of getting water connected can take some time and it’s advisable to start the process as early as possible to avoid any delays. Additionally, if you have any questions or concerns about the process, you can always seek the assistance of a professional real estate agent like Estates Istanbul, who can guide you through the process and ensure that everything is done correctly and efficiently.
