Evaluation of the minimum standard of the treatment to be provided in the Turkish temporary protection regime and legislation

Summary/Abstract: This article will elaborate and give an overview of the Turkish temporary protection regime. In 2011, when the war in Syria began, Turkey had to face the mass influx from the southeast area, bringing Turkey many Syrian refugees. By 2011 Turkey did not have sufficient regulation on temporary protection, which could deal with many upcoming refugees. In 2013 the Law of Foreigners and International Protection came into force. It was necessary to update the latest legislation on temporary protection, the 1994 Temporary Protection Regulation. Due to unification with international and European standards and to provide possibly the best services to the refugees, Turkey, in 2014, enacted a new law on asylum, migration, and temporary protection construction. Therefore, according to the Turkish Constitution and international regulations, the following article will describe the Turkish refugee law development and legal construction, temporary protection regime, and the problems that still need to be solved.
