Foreign nationals residing in or entering Turkey may face the risk of deportation for various reasons. In this case, a “deportation lawyer” takes the necessary legal action to protect the legal rights of the individuals and to cancel the deportation decisions. Edirne is one of the most frequently encountered cities for foreign nationals’ transit, visa and residence problems due to its location in the border region. Therefore, it is extremely important to apply to an expert Edirne lawyer in deportation cases in order to prevent irreparable victimization.
Milara Law is an experienced law office in Edirne that provides effective legal support to its clients in foreigners law and deportation procedures.
What is Deportation?
Deportation refers to the deportation order issued against foreigners in Turkey. This decision is usually taken in the following cases:
-
Violation of the duration of a visa or residence permit
-
Threat to public order or security
-
Illegal work or attempted illegal crossing
-
Entry with forged documents
-
A crime has been committed or there is a judicial proceeding
Deportation procedures are carried out by the Provincial Migration Management and the deportation process is initiated after a decision is taken on the person concerned.
Legal Rights against a Deportation Order
Foreigners who are subject to a deportation order have the right of legal appeal against this decision. The appeal must be lodged with the administrative court within 7 days of the decision. The support of a deportation lawyer is very important in this process:
-
The petition must be prepared completely and with legal grounds
-
Required documents must be submitted on time
-
The arguments proving that the person’s stay in Turkey is mandatory must be presented in a legal framework
In these cases, Milara Law provides a strong legal basis for its clients to stay in Turkey with detailed file analysis, effective defense and fast application services.
How Does the Process Work in Removal Centers?
Persons who have been ordered to be deported may be held in removal centers until their deportation. During this period, the person’s fundamental rights continue and attention should be paid to the following:
-
The person has the right to consult his/her lawyer
-
Be accommodated in the necessary health and humanitarian conditions
-
Can file a lawsuit against the deportation decision through a legal representative
-
If there is a violation of human rights, applications to the Constitutional Court or ECHR are possible
Milara Law offers regular visits, litigation and emergency legal support for clients in removal centers.
Common Reasons for Deportation
In border provinces and big cities such as Edirne, deportation decisions are frequently taken for the following reasons:
-
Visa-free entry and expired residence permit
-
Use of forged passports or documents
-
Working without a work permit
-
Suspected human trafficking
-
Criminal record or judicial control order
The legal assessment of each situation is different. Therefore, a legal defense must be tailored to the individual situation of a foreigner facing the threat of deportation.
