Amended: 18/2/1965, Law No. 538, Art. 74
In enforcement by way of bankruptcy, the competent authority is the enforcement office of the place where the debtor's principal place of business is located.
For commercial enterprises whose head office is abroad, the competent authority is the enforcement office of the place where the branch in Türkiye is located or, where there is more than one branch, of the place where the main branch is located.
If the debtor and the creditor have designated the competent enforcement office by written agreement, the enforcement office of that place shall also be deemed competent for bankruptcy proceedings. However, no jurisdiction agreement may be made for bankruptcy actions, and a bankruptcy action shall in all cases be brought before the commercial court of the place where the debtor's principal place of business is located.
