Türkiye is hosting 5.1 million foreign people with 3.8 million seeking international
protection. The categorization of the legal status of the migrants as refugees, conditional
refugees, and subsidiary protections has been made by the Law of Foreigners and International
Protection, and defined as international protection status. According to the Turkish Presidency
of Migration Management, most of the immigrants in Türkiye are Syrians who have been
granted temporary protection status. In Türkiye, the rate of inequalities in access to health
and healthcare is high and evident among immigrants who are already in a disadvantageous
position. The aim of this study is, initially, to identify structural and political factors that lead
to immigrants having different immigration statuses in accessing health services. Secondly,
even if immigrants have access to health services according to their immigration status, the
obstacles they face in accessing health services may occur due to SES differences. Therefore, the
fundamental cause theory has been used to explain disparities in access to healthcare for the
immigrants in Türkiye. In addition to potential policy changes regarding the regulation of the
legal statuses, the importance of social determinants of health practices has been highlighted
and further practices have been suggested in this regard.
