notification
” stipulates the cases where the respondent has not resided
at the relevant address or moved from that address permanently although
the respondent’s residence address is still registered as such address
in the address registration system. In this case, the officer will deliver
the document subject to notification to one of councilor or municipal
police officer or chief in consideration for signature and the document
to be notified shall be attached on the door; in such a case, the date of
attachment will be the notification date.
The phrase, “
The notifications made at the lawyers’ law offices
regarding works being followed by an attorney shall be made within the
official working days and hours”,

be directly delivered to a Turkish Embassy or a Consulate placed therein.
The Notification Law article 29 also stipulated that notice by
publishing may be made in the electronic environment, as well as by
gazette.
Article 35 with the title,
“Obligation to inform the address change”,
states that if a respondent has changed his or her address or has not informed
his or her new address, and if the residence address is not discoverable

be attached to the door of the building with the previous address, and the
attachment date will be the notification date. Also, it is stipulated in the
same article that the addresses registered in the official records of the
legal entities will be taken into consideration although no notification
has been made in that address before. In addition, if a Turkish citizen
who has previously received has moved, has not informed the official
authorities, and has not had a new residence address registered in the
address registration system, the notification will be deemed to have been
made on the thirteenth day following the notification of the document to
the previous address by the Turkish Embassy or Consulate.
Article 36, solely regulating notification during hearings, has
been rewritten as,
“The document concerning prosecution, lawsuit or
execution will be deemed notified during the hearing or in the secretariat
