In short
Attachment of a spouse's property does not, as a rule, reach the personal assets of the spouse who is not the debtor. Marriage does not of itself create joint and several liability. Suretyship, a joint account, or a company capacity is a separate door. Without a register entry or a contract, the other spouse's property is not entered against the debtor.
Personal debt, personal property
The debtor spouse's salary, account, and own share on the land register may be the target. Property registered in the other spouse's name alone stands like a third person's property. If it is in fact written onto the attachment list, a third-party ownership claim is discussed. The ownership claim article sets out that route. The time limit is read from service of the minutes, and it is not fixed in this text.
Where the land register shows co-ownership in shares, only the debtor spouse's share is in issue. The other spouse's share is read from the shared entry. Until that entry is seen, the whole house is not treated as attached. An annotation of the family home is a separate matter, and it is covered in the spouse's consent article. The annotation does not of itself stop every personal debt.
The acquired-property mistake
A claim for contribution, or for surplus value, arising from the matrimonial property regime belongs to the liquidation on divorce. The enforcement officer does not of their own motion enter the other spouse's land-registry title on the ground that it is acquired property. Without a liquidation judgment, that shortcut does not produce a transaction. If there is a judgment, the attachment is directed at the receivable stated in it. In a file with no judgment, the matrimonial property regime does not stand in for the attachment list.
Suretyship, the account, and the company
If the other spouse is a surety, the personal proceedings rest on the suretyship contract. That spouse is a debtor because they are a surety, not because they are a spouse. Without a contract, suretyship is not assumed. A joint bank account is separate, and it is covered in the joint account article. The capacity of company officer or shareholder is likewise separated in the company debt article. Capacity is read from the contract and the register.
How the property is separated
Attachment is carried out where the property is. If the immovable is in Ankara, the land-registry record is at the directorate in Ankara. If the enforcement file is in another province, the main file stays in that province. The office being in Çankaya does not change the owner on the land register. A lawyer in Ankara first asks for the attachment minutes, the land-registry record, and any suretyship contract.
This text looks at whether the owner on the land register and the debtor in the file are the same person. If the owner is the other spouse and there is no suretyship, it discusses the ownership-claim route. In co-ownership in shares, it separates only the debtor's share. A marriage certificate does not stand in for the owner column. If there is suretyship, the amount in the contract is compared with the amount claimed in the proceedings. If the contract does not state the amount, the document in the file is requested.
When the enforcement officer enters the home, the minutes should record who owns the goods, not only who uses them. Use does not of itself transfer ownership. The other spouse separates their own goods with invoices and warranty papers. The petition that separates them lists each item. An item that is not listed may remain inside a general phrase in the minutes.
The debtor spouse should not present salary paid into the other spouse's account as if it were their own debt. The official request goes to the employer on whose payroll the salary sits. A letter sent to the wrong employer does not deduct the other spouse's wages. If a deduction has already been made, a correction is sought with the payroll and identity papers. That correction does not stop an attachment directed at the debtor spouse's own salary.
If the other spouse is not at home during the attachment, they may receive the minutes later. The date of service starts the time for an objection. This text does not tie that period to a figure. The figure is on the service annotation. Without that annotation, one does not say that the time has passed. As soon as the spouse sees the minutes, they enclose the documents that separate their own property. If those documents are enclosed late, the reason for the delay is written as well. Silence without a reason does not make the property appear to belong to the debtor.
If there is no suretyship and the land register is in the other spouse's name, the attachment does not pass to that property of itself. A judgment or a contract is also required before it can pass. Without a document, marriage is not enough. A marriage certificate does not change the owner column on the land register. The attachment is not entered against that property before the owner column is read.
Conclusion
A spouse's property is not, as a rule, attached for the other spouse's personal debt. An exception arises from a separate document, such as suretyship, a joint account, or a company capacity. The frame is on the enforcement and bankruptcy page. The basis is the text of Law No. 2004 on Enforcement and Bankruptcy.
