Honorable citizens

Dear members of the Turkish-American community,

I have started my duty as Consul General of the Republic of Turkey in Boston as of March 1, 2025.

I would like to emphasize that ensuring uninterrupted access to consular services and meeting your requests and expectations in the fastest and most effective manner will always be our top priority for you, our citizens living in our mission area, which consists of the US states of Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.

Together with my colleagues and with the contributions of our Commercial and Educational Attaché Offices within our Consulate General, we will continue to serve you, our esteemed citizens, with a 24/7 approach.

Protecting the rights and interests of our country and you, developing and strengthening the relations between our country and the states in our region of duty, especially in the fields of education, trade, economy, culture and science will also be among our prioritized goals. I believe that working in close cooperation, harmony and unity with you is of great importance for the realization of these goals. Your valuable support, constructive opinions and suggestions will strengthen our work.

We are proud to see you successfully representing our country in the United States. We are always honored by your determination, hard work and contributions to society. Your achievements also strengthen the relations between our country and the United States.

The doors of our Consulate General are open to all our citizens, compatriots and friends of our country, as they have been until today. You can visit our Consulate General at any time or contact us via e-mail or phone. You can follow our announcements and activities on our website and social media accounts.

On behalf of my colleagues and myself, I would like to extend my sincerest respect and greetings to all our citizens and friends in our region of duty.
