The Foundation of Liability: Article 553 of the TCC<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The cornerstone of director liability in Turkey is <strong>Article 553<\/strong> of the Turkish Commercial Code No. 6102. Under this provision, members of the board of directors, managers, and even liquidators are held liable for damages caused to the company, its shareholders, and its creditors if they breach their statutory or contractual obligations through their fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the context of <a href=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/company-liquidation-in-turkiye\/\">company liquidation<\/a>, this liability remains particularly acute, as liquidators must ensure all creditor rights are satisfied before the distribution of assets. Failure to adhere to the strict procedural steps can lead to personal financial exposure long after the company has ceased its operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-2-the-prudent-manager-standard-12\">2. The &#8220;Prudent Manager&#8221; Standard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Turkish law does not expect directors to be infallible, but it does expect them to be <strong>diligent<\/strong>. According to <strong>Article 369<\/strong>, directors must perform their duties with the &#8220;care of a prudent manager&#8221; and act in the best interests of the company in good faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-what-defines-a-prudent-manager-in-2026-14\">What defines a Prudent Manager in 2026?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Informed Decision Making:<\/strong> Utilizing reasonable, scientific, and concrete data before casting a vote.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Loyalty:<\/strong> Prioritizing the company&#8217;s success over personal gain or the interests of third parties.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Compliance:<\/strong> Ensuring the company adheres to the latest 2026 updates, such as the mandatory transition to electronic statutory books for newly established entities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1172\" src=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/English-Speaking-Lawyer-in-Turkiye.webp\" alt=\"English-Speaking Lawyer in T\u00fcrkiye\" class=\"wp-image-1172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/English-Speaking-Lawyer-in-Turkiye.webp 1200w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/English-Speaking-Lawyer-in-Turkiye-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/English-Speaking-Lawyer-in-Turkiye-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/English-Speaking-Lawyer-in-Turkiye-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1136\" src=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Audits-in-Turkiye.webp\" alt=\"Tax Audits in T\u00fcrkiye\" class=\"wp-image-1136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Audits-in-Turkiye.webp 1200w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Audits-in-Turkiye-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Audits-in-Turkiye-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Audits-in-Turkiye-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1192\" src=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Capital-Increase-Procedure-for-Turkish-Companies.webp\" alt=\"Capital Increase Procedure for Turkish Companies\" class=\"wp-image-1192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Capital-Increase-Procedure-for-Turkish-Companies.webp 1200w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Capital-Increase-Procedure-for-Turkish-Companies-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Capital-Increase-Procedure-for-Turkish-Companies-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Capital-Increase-Procedure-for-Turkish-Companies-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"1140\" src=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Mergers-Acquisitions-in-Turkiye.webp\" alt=\"Mergers &amp;

Differentiated Joint and Several Liability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most significant modernizations in the TCC is the move away from &#8220;absolute&#8221; joint liability. Under the <strong>principle of differentiated joint liability (Article 557)<\/strong>, if multiple directors are responsible for the same damage, they are not all automatically liable for the total amount. Instead, the court determines the liability of each member based on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Their individual degree of <strong>fault<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <strong>causal link<\/strong> between their specific action (or inaction) and the damage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This ensures that a director who acted with due care\u2014perhaps by dissenting from a risky board resolution\u2014is not unfairly burdened by the negligence of their peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-4-non-transferable-duties-and-the-risk-of-delegation-27\">4. Non-Transferable Duties and the Risk of Delegation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The TCC identifies certain &#8220;non-transferable&#8221; duties that the board of directors cannot delegate to subordinates. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>High-level management and issuance of instructions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Determination of the company\u2019s organizational structure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supervision of persons in managerial positions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Notification of the court in cases of insolvency (technical bankruptcy).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While the board can delegate many operational tasks via an <strong>internal directive<\/strong>, the duty to <em>supervise<\/em> remains. As specialists in <a href=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/contract-drafting-review-services-in-turkiye\/\">contract drafting<\/a>, our firm frequently assists boards in creating robust internal directives that clearly define these boundaries, effectively limiting the liability of directors for the actions of appointed managers, provided the &#8220;due care in selection and supervision&#8221; was exercised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Advisory-Services-in-Turkiye-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Tax Advisory Services in T\u00fcrkiye\" class=\"wp-image-1109\" srcset=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Advisory-Services-in-Turkiye-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Advisory-Services-in-Turkiye-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Advisory-Services-in-Turkiye-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Tax-Advisory-Services-in-Turkiye.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-5-liability-for-public-debts-and-tax-obligations-36\">5. Liability for Public Debts and Tax Obligations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the most &#8220;dangerous&#8221; area for directors in Turkey is liability for public debts. Under the <strong>Law on Collection of Public Receivables<\/strong>, directors can be held <strong>personally liable<\/strong> for the company\u2019s unpaid taxes and social security premiums if they cannot be collected from the company itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike general civil liability, this is often a stricter form of responsibility. Even if you resign, you may still be held accountable for the tax periods during which you held office. This makes proactive <a href=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/corporate-litigation-in-turkiye\/\">corporate litigation<\/a> strategies and regular <a href=\"https:\/\/akkasmusavirlik.com\/en\/tax-audits-in-turkiye\/\">tax audits<\/a> essential for anyone holding a signature authority in a Turkish entity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-6-avoiding-conflicts-of-interest-and-prohibited-transactions-40\">6.
