New tax regulation for those who earn money online

However, until now, there has been no official taxation for those who earn income from social media. Here is the expected statement from the parliament today.
According to the new decision, people who earn income through social media will now be subject to a 15 percent withholding tax. This will cover people whose earnings are up to 640 thousand TL.
On the other hand, the earnings of those who are considered as small tradesmen and whose earnings are up to 850 thousand TL will be exempt from income tax.
With the law, it was announced that there will be a new regulation in tax applications in electronic environment. In this context, the definitions of ‘electrical ledger certificate’ and ‘electronic accounting slip’ will now take place in our lives according to the Tax Procedure Law.
