What start date should health insurance have for a Turkish residence permit application?

TL;DR

Health insurance should start on the residence-permit start date requested in the application, not on the appointment date. For example, if you request a permit from 6 October, the policy must be valid from 6 October.

What the community said

When completing the residence-permit application, choose the intended permit start date and make sure the health-insurance policy begins on that same date. The appointment date is not used as the insurance start date.

If applying for a two-year residence permit starting on 06.10, the insurance policy should also start on 06.10 rather than on the date of the immigration appointment.

Do not use the appointment date when buying the policy: purchase insurance effective from the date you plan to request the Turkish residence permit.
