Whether a document obtained from a consulate is accepted for a procedure in Turkey depends on the type of document and the specific procedure in question. For example, a claim of Turkish descent is proven not by a consular document but by an official document issued by Turkish authorities.
Whether documents require translation and notary certification also depends on the specific process.
