Proposal to give a stamped passport to those who have taught for at least ten years
A proposal with Sırrı Sakik of the Peoples' Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party), Ağrı constituency, as first signatory seeks to amend Passport Law No. 5682. The regulation aims to give a special stamped passport to teachers who have served at least ten years in state or private schools. The proposal was submitted to the Presidency on 22 October 2026, passed to the Interior Affairs Committee on 26 October 2026, and is currently waiting in committee.
What does it mean?
If the proposal becomes law, people who have worked as teachers for at least ten years could receive a special stamped passport. Because the proposal is currently in committee, nothing changes in force yet; it would need to pass through parliament to become law.
Who is affected?
People who have worked as teachers for at least ten years in state schools or private educational institutions.
