The right of ownership can be limited only in cases where there is a public interest. In such limitation procedures, the value of the real estate is determined first and then the determined real estate price is paid to the owner of the real estate. After that, the registration of the real estate in question is transferred to the administration. Expropriation operations are carried out in two types as normal expropriation and emergency expropriation.

In the normal expropriation process, all legal transactions of the real estate to be expropriated are carried out before the real estate is transferred to the administration. In some cases, all legal actions, except for the determination of the value of the immovable property, begin after the real estate has been transferred to the administration. This, in turn, refers to urgent expropriation operations. In this case, it is mostly carried out by the General Directorate of Land routes.

It should be noted that only state institutions can carry out the expropriation process. The unit that will expropriate here must first make a more public interest decision. The public interest decision taken after this is approved by the relevant authority. Thus, the expropriation process begins.

The administration, which will carry out expropriation, prepares a plan showing the face measurement and limit of real estate and finds the owners of real estate that it will expropriate through land registry and population records and communicates the mentioned decision to the relevant parties.
