What we do
Official Gazette Summaries takes the laws, regulations, communiqués, and high-court decisions published each day in Turkey's Resmî Gazete (Official Gazette) and distils them into plain English. Our goal is to make official legislation accessible and scannable for everyone.
Methodology
- Documents are sourced directly from the Official Gazette.
- Each document is summarised by artificial intelligence; structured fields such as title, category, and "what changed / who is affected" are generated automatically.
- Every summary links to the original document — one click takes you straight to the source.
Update frequency
Every day, shortly after the Official Gazette is published. Days when the Gazette is not published are noted explicitly.
Accuracy & disclaimer
These summaries are unofficial and non-binding; as AI-generated content they may contain errors. The legally authoritative text is always the original at resmigazete.gov.tr. This site is independent and has no affiliation with any official body.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Save (★) and Watch for changes?
Save bookmarks that document; it stays in the Saved tab for you to reread anytime. Watch for changes follows a piece of legislation going forward: when a new amendment to that regulation or law is published, the related document appears in your My Feed tab.
What's the difference between following a category, following a keyword, and search?
Category follows filter by the topic categories assigned to each document (e.g. Finance & Taxation). Keyword follows scan each new issue's titles, summaries and keywords for the words you chose; on a match, a badge appears on the My Feed tab and the word is highlighted in summaries. The Search tab is for one-off searches — it doesn't create a standing follow.
Where are my saved items and follows stored?
Only on your own device. Your saved documents, reading history and follows are kept in your device's local storage; nothing is sent to a server and no account is needed. This also means the data doesn't transfer automatically when you switch devices.
