Dear friends,

It is a great honour for me to serve as the Consul General of Türkiye in Guangzhou. During my career of more than 20 years in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I worked at various positions in Turkish foreign missions in Saudi Arabia, Italy, South Korea, Japan, and Ukraine. After working at the Turkish Embassy in Kyiv for almost two years, I took on my duties in Guangzhou as of mid-August 2023.

During my tenure, providing the best service at our Consulate General will be our priority. Our doors will continue to be open, as it has always been. As the Consulate General, we will be just a message or a phone call away from you. We would be pleased if you share your thoughts, opinions and suggestions with us.
