I am currently residing in Turkey and am interested in starting a dropshipping business using Shopify. Could you please provide detailed information on whether it is possible to commence this venture without establishing a formal company? Additionally, what legal considerations and potential issues should I be aware of in this context?
Hi @zeynkash
As far as I know running a dropshipping business on Shopify in Turkey without a registered entity is risky. Turkish regulations mandate formal registration, ensure legality, access to payment gateways like Iyzico, and simplified tax compliance. Consider a Sole Proprietorship and consult local experts for tailored advice

I am planning to start a dropshipping business in Turkey and would like to operate as a sole proprietorship instead of establishing an LLC. Is it legally possible to run my business this way? If yes, what are the key steps and requirements to register as a sole proprietor for an online dropshipping business?
