What a Turkish distributor needs

Friday cinema week

Booking grids, play weeks and holdovers run Friday to Thursday.

10% on tickets, 20% on rent

Turkish cinemas start with 10% KDV on tickets and your rent invoices with 20%.

e-Fatura and e-Arşiv

Rent invoices are e-Fatura or e-Arşiv documents, issued through a GİB integrator.

Turkish ratings

Films carry their Turkish rating per version, from Genel İzleyici to 18+, printed on booking confirmations.

No entertainment tax on films

Entertainment tax on films is 0%, so settlements start from the box office net of KDV.

Turkish settlement

From box office to e-Fatura

DISTmio removes the 10% KDV, applies your share, guarantee or flat fee for each cinema week and turns approved settlements into rent invoices with 20% KDV.

  • Weekly shares, guarantees and flat fees
