Metropol CPA Your Partner in Accounting Solutions
Metropol CPA offers a wide range of accounting services to meet the needs of different business models and industries. Each service is handled with precision, confidentiality, and a results-driven approach. Here are several services that we over:
Turkey Tax Preparation & Tax Planning
Tax compliance is a non-negotiable part of doing business in Turkey. The country’s tax system includes corporate income tax, value-added tax (VAT), withholding taxes, and special consumption taxes — all of which have their own deadlines, documentation requirements, and reporting formats.
Our tax preparation services ensure that every declaration is accurate and submitted on time, helping you avoid penalties and interest charges. By working with Metropol CPA, you can be confident that your tax obligations are fully met while optimizing your overall tax strategy. But we don’t just file your taxes — we focus on tax planning to legally minimize your liabilities. This includes:
-
Identifying tax deductions and exemptions relevant to your business.
-
Structuring transactions to be tax-efficient.
-
Advising on cross-border taxation for foreign investors.
Payroll Processing Services
Running payroll in Turkey can be more complex than it appears. It involves not only calculating wages but also ensuring compliance with social security contributions, income tax withholdings, severance pay regulations, and employee benefits. We also provide secure payroll reports so management has a clear understanding of labor costs. This helps maintain employee satisfaction while ensuring compliance with all Turkish labor laws. Our payroll processing services cover:
-
Accurate salary calculations based on employment contracts.
-
Deduction of the correct taxes and contributions.
-
Preparation and submission of monthly Social Security Institution (SGK) declarations.
-
Handling of end-of-service settlements and holiday pay.
Bookkeeping Services
Bookkeeping is the backbone of financial health. Without accurate records, decision-making becomes guesswork. At Metropol CPA, we maintain up-to-date, organized, and legally compliant books for your business. With Metropol CPA managing your books, you can focus on growing your business instead of worrying about missing invoices or inaccurate records. Our bookkeeping services include:
-
Recording every business transaction with correct accounting codes.
-
Reconciling bank accounts to detect discrepancies early.
-
Tracking accounts receivable and payable to maintain healthy cash flow.
-
Providing monthly financial summaries for business owners.
Financial Statement Preparation
Financial statements are not only a compliance requirement but also a tool for evaluating your business performance. With precise financial statements from Metropol CPA, you can build trust with stakeholders and make informed business decisions. We prepare balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and cash flow statements that are clear, accurate, and aligned with both Turkish Accounting Standards and international IFRS requirements. These statements can be used for:
-
Investor presentations.
-
Loan or financing applications.
-
Internal performance tracking.
Custom Financial Consulting
Every business has unique financial challenges — there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution. Our consulting goes beyond compliance — it’s about giving you the tools and strategies to compete more effectively in your market. That’s why our consulting services are custom-tailored to your specific needs. We can help with:
-
Budgeting & Forecasting – Planning for the next quarter, year, or five years.
-
Cost Control – Identifying unnecessary expenses and improving profitability.
