Relationship context
Overview
Turkey and Bermuda have a narrow area of direct government cooperation through a tax information exchange agreement. Bermuda is a British Overseas Territory, and its external relations are generally handled by the United Kingdom, although it has authority over some matters such as taxation. The bilateral relationship is therefore limited in scope and does not amount to a broad independent foreign-policy partnership.
Key developments
Turkey and Bermuda concluded a tax information exchange agreement.
Major uncertainties
- The agreement’s current implementation and the extent of information exchanged are unclear.
- The scope of Bermuda’s authority over other areas of bilateral cooperation is limited.
