This regulation, published on 14 January 2026 in the Official Gazette No. 33137, introduces targeted amendments to the existing regulation governing Chambers of Certified Public Accountants in Turkey. The primary change simplifies the announcement procedure for General Assembly meetings by requiring publication only on the Chamber’s official website for at least 10 days before the meeting date. Several record-keeping obligations have been removed: the requirement to maintain a member registration book and employee list book has been repealed, while the definition of books subject to certain rules has been expanded to explicitly include these registers among other unofficial auxiliary books. Articles 32, 33, 35 through 46, and 48 through 50 have been entirely abolished, significantly reducing the regulatory burden and procedural requirements for the chambers.
