How is the court fee calculated?
Judicial fees are collected under Fees Law No. 492 and Tariff No. (1) attached to it. The amount paid when filing a case consists of several items:
- Application fee: A fixed amount independent of the amount in dispute; it is set anew each year.
- Proportional fee (decision and judgment fee): In cases whose subject matter can be measured in money, it is calculated at 68,31 per thousand of the amount in dispute.
- Advance fee: It is 1/4 of the proportional fee and is paid when the case is filed; the remainder is completed at the decision stage.
- Advance on costs: It is deposited under HMK Art. 120 for costs such as service of process, witnesses and experts; its amount is determined according to the advance on costs tariff published each year.
Sample calculation
In a claim with an amount in dispute of 500.000 TL, the proportional fee is 500.000 × 0,06831 = 34.155 TL, and the advance fee payable when filing is one quarter of this, 8.538,75 TL. The application fee, power of attorney fee and advance on costs are added to this amount; the tool takes these items from the tariff in force.
In an action for an undetermined claim (HMK Art. 107), the fee is collected on the minimum value stated when the case is filed; when the value is increased, the fee is completed on the difference. To determine the amount in dispute, the claim must first be calculated in detail.
Frequently asked questions
What is the advance fee and how is it calculated?
The advance fee is the amount paid when the case is filed and equals one quarter of the proportional fee. Since the proportional fee is 68,31 per thousand of the amount in dispute, the advance fee is approximately 17,08 per thousand of the amount in dispute.
When is the remainder of the fee paid?
The three-quarters of the proportional fee not paid in advance accrues as the decision and judgment fee at the judgment stage and is imposed on the losing party.
How is the fee collected in an action for an undetermined claim?
In an action for an undetermined claim, the fee is collected on the minimum amount stated in the statement of claim. When the amount in dispute is later increased, the fee is completed for the increased portion.
What is the difference between a fixed fee and a proportional fee?
A fixed fee is a set amount independent of the amount in dispute (e.g. application fee, cases whose subject matter cannot be measured in money). A proportional fee, on the other hand, is calculated in proportion to the amount in dispute.
