1. Introduction<\/span><\/h3>\n

Embassies, consulates and international organisations operating in T\u00fcrkiye may need to purchase or lease real estate for a wide range of official and residential purposes. These properties may serve as a chancery, consular office, ambassador\u2019s residence, diplomatic staff housing, cultural centre, trade office, archive, storage facility or other operational premises.\u00a0<\/span>A diplomatic property transaction is not, however, an ordinary commercial purchase or lease. It lies at the intersection of Turkish property law, contract law, planning and construction rules, taxation, diplomatic privileges, security requirements and public international law.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The identity of the acquiring or leasing institution, the intended use of the premises, the location of the property and the applicable principle of reciprocity may all affect the procedure. Transactions involving international organisations may additionally be governed by constituent treaties or host country agreements. <\/span>Most importantly, foreign missions must involve the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs before completing a purchase, lease, sale, renovation, expansion or change-of-use transaction. Proceeding without the required notification and approval may expose the mission to substantial financial, legal and operational risks. <\/span>This guide explains how embassies, consulates and international organisations can safely acquire, lease, occupy, renovate, manage and dispose of real estate in T\u00fcrkiye.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Institutions Covered by This Guide<\/span><\/h3>\n

The principles discussed in this guide may be relevant to:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Embassies;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Consulates and consulates general;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Permanent missions;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Representations of international organisations;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • United Nations agencies;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Cultural institutes;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Commercial and trade offices;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Defence, liaison and technical offices;<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Other foreign representations enjoying privileges or immunities in T\u00fcrkiye.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The applicable rules are not identical for every institution. Diplomatic missions and consular posts are principally governed by the Vienna conventions, Turkish law and reciprocity. International organisations may benefit from different privileges under their constituent instruments, international conventions and host country agreements concluded with T\u00fcrkiye. <\/span>Each proposed transaction should therefore begin with an institutional-status review rather than an assumption that all foreign representations enjoy the same rights and exemptions.<\/span><\/p>\n

    3. Types of Diplomatic Property<\/span><\/h3>\n

    The legal treatment of a property may depend substantially on its official designation and actual use.\u00a0<\/span>Common categories include:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • A chancery or embassy office;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • A chancery annex;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • A consulate or consulate general;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • The official residence of the head of mission;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Residences occupied by diplomatic, administrative or consular personnel;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Cultural, educational or commercial offices;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Archives and secure document-storage facilities;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Warehouses and operational support premises;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Official parking areas;<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Property undergoing construction, redevelopment or major renovation.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      The distinction matters because approval procedures, planning rules, tax exemptions and diplomatic protections may differ according to whether the property is used as an official mission building, a chief-of-mission residence, staff accommodation or another type of facility. <\/span>A property approved for diplomatic or consular use should normally be used in accordance with that declared purpose. Its use by another governmental office, a third party or a commercial operator may require additional consent from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<\/span><\/p>\n

      4. International and Turkish Legal Framework<\/span><\/h3>\n

      Diplomatic real estate transactions in T\u00fcrkiye are governed by several overlapping legal regimes. <\/span>The international framework includes:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • The Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations of 1961;<\/span><\/li>\n
      • The Vienna Convention on Consular Relations of 1963;<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Customary international law;<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Bilateral agreements;<\/span><\/li>\n
      • The principle of reciprocity;<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Constituent treaties of international organisations;<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Host country agreements.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        The relevant domestic framework may include:<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        • Turkish land registry and cadastral legislation;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • The Turkish Code of Obligations;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Zoning, planning and construction legislation;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Municipal regulations;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Condominium law;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Tax legislation;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Environmental and heritage-protection rules;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Earthquake and building-safety requirements;<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Civil procedure and enforcement law.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Diplomatic status does not remove a transaction from Turkish property, planning or contract law. Immunity and inviolability protect particular sovereign interests, but they do not eliminate the need to obtain planning permission, verify title, draft an enforceable agreement or comply with building-safety requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n

          5. The Role of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs<\/span><\/h3>\n

          The Directorate-General of Protocol of the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs plays a central role in diplomatic property transactions.\u00a0<\/span>Foreign missions must notify the Ministry before a proposed:<\/span><\/p>\n

            \n
          • Purchase;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Lease;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Sale;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Other acquisition or disposal;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Construction project;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Alteration;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Expansion;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Major renovation;<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Change in use.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            The Ministry\u2019s review is intended to ensure that the location and use of the proposed premises are compatible with planning, municipal, traffic and security considerations. <\/span>The Ministry has expressly stated that it may decline to approve a transaction completed without prior approval. The fact that a mission has already signed a contract, made a payment, taken possession or moved into the property does not bind the Ministry to approve the arrangement retrospectively. <\/span>Early consultation is therefore essential. Diplomatic approval should be treated as a central transaction condition, not as an administrative formality to be completed after signing.<\/span><\/p>\n

            6. Notification and Approval Procedure<\/span><\/h3>\n

            The review procedure is initiated by a diplomatic note submitted to the Protocol Department. <\/span>The notification should contain, at minimum:<\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            • The exact address of the property;<\/span><\/li>\n
            • The apartment, suite or independent-unit number, where applicable;<\/span><\/li>\n
            • The proposed use of the premises;<\/span><\/li>\n
            • The method of acquisition;<\/span><\/li>\n
            • The proposed lease term, where relevant;<\/span><\/li>\n
            • A copy of the title deed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              The Ministry has also requested that notifications include available block, map and parcel information relating to the property. <\/span>The official procedure allows the Ministry up to 60 days to review a request, although the 2005 circular indicates that many applications may be resolved sooner. Missions should nevertheless plan on the basis that the full review period may be required. <\/span>A transaction timetable should therefore provide sufficient time for:<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              • Ministry review;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Municipal and planning enquiries;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Security assessment;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Legal due diligence;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Technical inspection;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Contract negotiation;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Tax-exemption applications;<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Registration or delivery.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                7. Agreements Signed Before Approval<\/span><\/h3>\n

                A mission should generally avoid entering into an unconditional purchase or lease agreement before receiving the Ministry\u2019s approval. <\/span>Where commercial circumstances require an agreement to be signed earlier, the contract should state expressly that its effectiveness or completion is conditional upon approval by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This approach is specifically contemplated by the Ministry\u2019s official procedure. <\/span>A properly drafted condition precedent should address:<\/span><\/p>\n

                  \n
                • The authority responsible for seeking approval;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • The documents to be submitted;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • A long-stop date for receiving approval;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • The consequences of refusal;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • The return of deposits and advance rent;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Responsibility for legal and technical expenses;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Whether possession may be delivered before approval;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Whether either party may terminate during the approval period;<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Whether partial or conditional approval is acceptable.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  A general phrase such as \u201csubject to official approval\u201d may be insufficient. The agreement should define precisely which approval is required and what happens if it is delayed, refused or granted subject to conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  8. Preliminary Needs and Site Assessment<\/span><\/h3>\n

                  Before searching for property, the mission should prepare a written operational brief. <\/span>This should identify:<\/span><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • The intended legal and operational use;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Whether the property will be purchased or leased;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Required floor area and capacity;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Public-access needs;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Parking requirements;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Security and perimeter requirements;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Emergency access;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Accessibility;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Communications infrastructure;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Archive and storage requirements;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Staff-residential needs;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Future expansion possibilities;<\/span><\/li>\n
                  • Budget and expected occupancy period.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    The mission should also decide whether the property must be capable of immediate occupation or whether substantial fit-out and structural works are acceptable. <\/span>A clear brief prevents the mission from investing time in properties that are attractive commercially but unsuitable from a diplomatic, planning, structural or security perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    9. Buying Versus Leasing<\/span><\/h3>\n

                    The decision to purchase or lease should be based on legal, financial and operational factors. <\/span>Purchasing may provide:<\/span><\/p>\n

                      \n
                    • Long-term security of occupation;<\/span><\/li>\n
                    • Greater control over structural alterations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                    • Reduced exposure to rent increases;<\/span><\/li>\n
                    • A long-term institutional asset;<\/span><\/li>\n
                    • Greater freedom to implement mission-specific security measures.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                      It may also require:<\/span><\/p>\n

                        \n
                      • A larger initial capital commitment;<\/span><\/li>\n
                      • More extensive title and technical due diligence;<\/span><\/li>\n
                      • Responsibility for structural maintenance;<\/span><\/li>\n
                      • Long-term property management;<\/span><\/li>\n
                      • A later disposal procedure;<\/span><\/li>\n
                      • Detailed tax and registration planning.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                        Leasing may provide:<\/span><\/p>\n

                          \n
                        • Lower initial expenditure;<\/span><\/li>\n
                        • Greater flexibility;<\/span><\/li>\n
                        • Easier relocation;<\/span><\/li>\n
                        • Reduced long-term asset-management responsibility.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                          However, a lease may expose the mission to:<\/span><\/p>\n

                            \n
                          • Rent-adjustment disputes;<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Restrictions on alterations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Dependence on the landlord;<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Renewal uncertainty;<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Termination and eviction disputes;<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Deposit-recovery issues;<\/span><\/li>\n
                          • Difficulties installing specialist security infrastructure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                            The choice should be aligned with the anticipated duration of the mission\u2019s use, the strategic importance of the location and the scale of planned modifications.<\/span><\/p>\n

                            10. Identifying the Correct Purchaser or Tenant<\/span><\/h3>\n

                            One of the most important drafting issues is identifying the proper legal party. <\/span>Depending on the transaction, the purchaser or tenant may be described as:<\/span><\/p>\n

                              \n
                            • The sending state;<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • The government of the sending state;<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • The embassy acting on behalf of the sending state;<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • A consular post acting through the embassy;<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • An international organisation with separate legal personality;<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • An authorised governmental institution;<\/span><\/li>\n
                            • A duly authorised representative acting for the relevant entity.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                              The institution\u2019s internal terminology should be reconciled with Turkish registration and contractual requirements.\u00a0<\/span>Naming an ambassador, diplomat or employee personally as purchaser or tenant may create serious complications unless the transaction is genuinely personal. A person acting in an official capacity should not be confused with the state or organisation that will own, occupy or finance the property. <\/span>The agreement should state clearly:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                \n
                              • The legal identity of the party;<\/span><\/li>\n
                              • Its official capacity;<\/span><\/li>\n
                              • Its address for contractual purposes;<\/span><\/li>\n
                              • The source of the signatory\u2019s authority;<\/span><\/li>\n
                              • Whether the transaction is official or private;<\/span><\/li>\n
                              • Whether the property will qualify as mission premises.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                11. Authority and Representation Documents<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                The seller, landlord, land registry directorate, bank, municipality or other authority may require evidence that the person signing for the mission has authority to do so. <\/span>Depending on the transaction, relevant documents may include:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                  \n
                                • A diplomatic note;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • A letter of authority;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • A governmental decision;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • A power of attorney;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • An appointment or accreditation document;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • Signature authorisation;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • An organisational resolution;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                • Evidence of the international organisation\u2019s legal personality.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                  Foreign documents may need to be translated into Turkish and, depending on their nature and the applicable diplomatic or legal channel, authenticated or legalised. <\/span>The required form should be confirmed at an early stage. A transaction may be delayed even after commercial terms are agreed if the signing authority or representation documents are not acceptable to the relevant Turkish institution.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                  12. Legal Due Diligence Before Purchase<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                  A diplomatic purchaser should conduct comprehensive legal due diligence before making a binding commitment.\u00a0<\/span>The review should include:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                    \n
                                  • Confirmation of the registered owner;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Verification of cadastral information;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Identification of the relevant independent unit;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Review of mortgages;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Attachments and enforcement annotations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Easements;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Usufruct rights;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Rights of residence;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Litigation annotations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Expropriation or public-project risks;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Preliminary sales agreements;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Rights of first refusal;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Restrictions arising from co-ownership;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Condominium-management rules;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Common-area rights;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Existing leases or occupation;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                  • Outstanding municipal or management liabilities.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                    The title deed alone may not reveal every legal, planning or physical problem. Due diligence should therefore extend to land registry records, cadastral information, municipal files, the condominium-management plan and relevant contracts. <\/span>A purchaser should not rely solely on documents supplied by the seller.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                    13. Zoning, Permitted Use and Occupancy<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                    The property\u2019s existing physical appearance does not establish that it may lawfully be used as a chancery, consulate or institutional office.\u00a0<\/span>The mission should verify:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                    • The applicable zoning plan;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • The registered use of the property;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • The construction permit;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • The occupancy permit;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • Whether office or institutional use is permitted;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • Whether a change of use is required;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • Whether the premises comply with fire and accessibility rules;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • Whether alterations were carried out lawfully;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                    • Whether condominium rules restrict the proposed use.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                      The Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs specifically requires foreign missions to comply with applicable municipal, building and land-use rules. For chanceries and chancery annexes in Ankara, an occupancy permit must be obtained before occupation, and certain municipal permits require the written concurrence of the Protocol Department.\u00a0<\/span>A residential title classification does not necessarily mean that the premises may be converted into an embassy office without further approval.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                      14. Chancery Premises in Ankara<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                      The official procedure gives particular attention to chanceries and chancery annexes in Ankara. <\/span>The Protocol Department assesses whether a proposed location is acceptable and whether alterations or expansion comply with applicable local requirements. Municipal occupancy and planning approvals are also required.\u00a0<\/span>Where construction or alteration permits are needed, project plans may first have to be submitted to the Protocol Department for review and transmission to the appropriate local authority.\u00a0<\/span>An Ankara chancery transaction should therefore coordinate:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                        \n
                                      • Ministry approval;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                      • Municipal planning review;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                      • Occupancy permission;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                      • Construction and alteration permits;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                      • Security considerations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                      • Traffic and access issues;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                      • Legal and technical due diligence.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                        The purchase or lease agreement should not assume that a building currently used as an office is automatically acceptable for diplomatic use.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                        15. Consular Properties Outside Ankara<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                        Purchases, leases, alterations, expansions and changes of use involving consular properties are also subject to prior notification. <\/span>Consular posts are expected to submit property notifications to the Ministry through their embassies. They must additionally comply with the planning, building and permit requirements of the municipality or local authority where the property is located. <\/span>A consulate in Istanbul, \u0130zmir, Antalya or another city may therefore face a different municipal process from a chancery in Ankara. <\/span>Local due diligence should address:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                          \n
                                        • Municipal zoning;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                        • Building-use classifications;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                        • Local traffic and access conditions;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                        • Fire-safety requirements;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                        • Historic-building restrictions;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                        • Earthquake-risk status;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                        • Construction and renovation permits.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                          The mission should not assume that approval practices are uniform across all Turkish cities.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                          16. Residences for Heads of Mission and Diplomatic Personnel<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                          Residential properties purchased or leased by foreign missions for members of the mission are subject to the Ministry\u2019s notification requirements. <\/span>A distinction should be made between:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                            \n
                                          • The official residence of the head of mission;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                          • Residences leased by the sending state for diplomatic personnel;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                          • Privately rented accommodation;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                          • Staff housing used by administrative or service personnel;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                          • Mixed official and private use.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                            The distinction may affect:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                              \n
                                            • The identity of the tenant or purchaser;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                            • Eligibility for tax privileges;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                            • Responsibility for rent and utilities;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                            • Diplomatic designation;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                            • Termination rights;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                            • Maintenance obligations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                            • Protection and inviolability.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                              The agreement should clearly identify whether the property is being occupied in an official or private capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                              17. Lease Due Diligence<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                              Before entering into a lease, the mission should verify both the property and the landlord. <\/span>The review should establish:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                \n
                                              • That the landlord is the registered owner or duly authorised representative;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether the property is co-owned;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether all required owners have consented;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether the property is mortgaged or subject to attachment;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether another tenant or occupier has rights over the premises;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether the intended use is lawful;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether alterations require the consent of third parties;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether condominium-management rules permit the proposed use;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether the building has an occupancy permit;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether there are outstanding management or utility debts;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                              • Whether the property has structural or safety defects.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                                Where the landlord acts through a power of attorney, the scope and continuing validity of that authority should be checked carefully. <\/span>A long-term diplomatic lease should generally receive a level of legal and technical scrutiny comparable to a purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                18. Essential Clauses in Embassy Lease Agreements<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                                A diplomatic lease should be tailored to the mission\u2019s operational requirements rather than based on a standard residential or commercial template. <\/span>Key provisions should address:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                  \n
                                                • The identity and authority of the parties;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                • The lease commencement date;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • The duration of the lease;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Renewal and extension options;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                • Security installations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Maintenance and repair;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                • Confidentiality;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Assignment and subletting;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                • A diplomatic break clause;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Force majeure;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Closure or relocation of the mission;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Restoration obligations;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Handover at termination;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Governing law;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Dispute resolution;<\/span><\/li>\n
                                                • Notices.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                                  The lease should also determine which provisions survive termination, particularly confidentiality, restoration, liability and dispute-resolution clauses.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                  19. Rent, Currency and Payment<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                                  Rent provisions should comply with the mandatory rules applicable at the time the agreement is made.\u00a0<\/span>The parties should clearly regulate:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                    \n
                                                  • The currency of rent;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                  • The receiving bank account;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                  • Whether rent is stated inclusive or exclusive of taxes;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                  • Payment during renovation or delayed occupation.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                                    Currency and rent-adjustment rules may change over time. Their application may also depend on the legal identity of the parties and the nature of the transaction. The agreement should therefore be reviewed under the rules in force on the signing date rather than relying on an older standard form.\u00a0<\/span>Diplomatic status should not be assumed to remove all payment, tax or documentation requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                    20. Deposit and Financial Security<\/span><\/h3>\n

                                                    A landlord may request:<\/span><\/p>\n

                                                    • A bank guarantee;<\/span><\/li>\n

                                                    • Another form of security.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                                                      The lease should specify:<\/span><\/p>\n
