The 17.79 percent inflation rate announced for the first half of 2025 has led to significant salary increases across top levels of government, including a substantial rise in the gross salary of President Ersin Tatar, which now exceeds 411,000 TL.
Effective from July 1, 2025, the new salary adjustment reflects the inflation rate used to determine the minimum wage, also impacting public sector salaries from top officials to civil servants.
