Disaster and Emergency Support Services (AFAD Afet Yardım Sorgulama)

Disaster and Emergency Support Services .. Know Your Rights and Entitlements from AFAD

The Turkish Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) is the official body responsible for managing all types of natural and man-made disasters in Turkey, from earthquakes, floods and fires to displacement and refugee crises. Through the "Afet Yardım Sorgulama" service available on the e-Devlet portal, you can inquire about the status of your aid application and find out the type and amount of support allocated to you — whether cash assistance, temporary rent, relief supplies, or other state-provided services for those affected.

After logging into e-Devlet with your password, search for the AFAD Afet Yardım Sorgulama service. You will need to enter the disaster number (Afet Numarası) or your application number. A summary of your application status will appear: under evaluation, approved, payment amount and disbursement date, or the reason for rejection if any. You can also update your contact details to ensure future notifications reach you accurately.

Do not neglect your right to government support in times of crisis. This service saves you time and effort, sparing you from visiting AFAD centers in person. Remember that applying for aid is usually within specific periods after a disaster occurs, so act immediately when needed. All services are free and official — beware of anyone claiming to speed up your transaction for a fee.
