Financial Claims in Turkish Divorce Proceedings
Turkish family courts award distinct forms of financial support during and following divorce litigation.
1. Temporary Support (Tedbir Nafakası)
Awarded during pending divorce proceedings to support the financially vulnerable spouse and minor children.
2. Poverty Alimony (Yoksulluk Nafakası)
Granted post-divorce to a spouse who falls into poverty, provided they are not predominantly at fault for the marital breakdown.
