Progress payment cover

Enter amounts without VAT and for this progress payment only. The rows are worked out in the cover's official order and under its official names.

Progress payment

The rates, the invoice limit and the stamp duty cap are picked for this month.

VAT rate
₺

This progress payment only; without VAT and price adjustment.

₺

The price adjustment paid in this progress payment, without VAT. Leave it blank if there is none.

Contract type

3% is held from the lump-sum part and 5% from the unit-price part against defects.

Taxes

a) Income or corporate tax (withholding tax)

Does the work spread over more than one calendar year?

Tax is withheld only on construction and repair works that spread over more than one calendar year (Income Tax Law art. 42).

Work type for the withholding tax

Switch this on to take the advance recovered in this payment off the withholding tax base. Administrations differ on this; check your own cover.

b) Stamp duty

Switch this on and the row reads "Muaf" (exempt) with no amount.

c) VAT withholding

Work type for VAT withholding
Buyer

Administrations in the schedules of Law No. 5018 (state universities included), public bodies set up by law, revolving-fund bodies, the Social Security Institution and banks. They withhold on the listed work and on other services. Foundation universities are not in this group but among the other designated buyers. A cover is a public administration's, so the buyer defaults to a central administration; change it for a municipality's work.

g) Advance recovery

Leave this blank if no advance was paid. The recovery rate is 1.5 times the advance rate and applies to this period's work at contract prices. See the whole plan on the advance tool.

₺

The first contract price, without VAT. When given, the VAT withholding limit is measured against it too.

%

The percentage in article 13 of the contract, for example 10.

₺

The advance recoveries only; the 13.11 update difference and advance interest stay out.

Switch this on and the whole remaining advance balance comes off this payment (13.9.4).

Method

How the cover is worked out

The tool builds the Hakediş Raporu cover from this period's amount. Each row follows its own legislation, and the rows are printed in the cover's order: a, b, c, d, e, f, h, ı, g, i, j and k when there is one.

Formula

E = this period's work + this period's price adjustment

F = E × VAT rate

G = E + F

H = a + b + c + d + e + f + h + ı + g + i + j + k

Paid = G − H

Each row is rounded half up to the kuruş. The VAT withholding applies to F rounded to the kuruş. The 3% row's index ratio is rounded to eight places, and its amount is rounded once, at the end.

Rules applied

Order and labels
The rows are printed in the official cover's order and under its names; g comes after ı. A row with no amount keeps its name and an empty amount. Rated labels show the rate in force in the payment month.
a) Withholding tax
Taken only on construction and repair works that spread over more than one calendar year, from E with the price adjustment in it (Income Tax Law art. 42 and 94). Where tax was withheld when the advance was paid, some administrations take the advance recovered in this payment off the base; the tool leaves that to you. The base never goes below zero.
b) Stamp duty
9.48 per mille of E; the advance recovery is not taken off the base. One paper cannot carry more than the cap; the calculator knows the cap from 2026. An exempt contract's row reads "Muaf".
c) VAT withholding
On works, the buyer withholds 4/10 of the VAT. Municipalities are not designated buyers, and nothing is withheld when the amount with VAT does not pass the invoice limit. The rules are those of the VAT withholding tool.
ı) Price adjustment guarantee
6% of the price adjustment paid in this payment is held as an additional performance guarantee. The base is the price adjustment only, not E. Nothing is held on a negative adjustment, or when the guarantee was given as a letter (Law No. 4735 art. 12).
g) Advance recovery
The recovery rate is the advance rate plus half again (13.9.1). It applies to this period's work at contract prices, without the price adjustment (13.9.2), and never takes more than the remaining balance. The last provisional payment takes the whole remaining balance (13.9.4).
i) and j) Defect deductions
3% is held from the lump-sum part against provisional acceptance defects and 5% from the unit-price part against the final accounts. Where the contract pays price adjustment the 3% is updated by Domestic PPI from the contract month to the payment month, with no floor. The 5% is not updated. The paragraph number turns on the contract type: 30.1 (3%) for lump-sum, 30.2 (5%) for unit-price, and in a mixed contract 30.1 is the 5% and 30.2 the 3%.
d, e, f, h and k
The SGK debt, the interest on deduction minutes, the delay penalty, the technical staff penalty and other deductions come from the administration's documents, so you enter them. The 13.11 update difference and advance interest go into row k.
A negative net payment
If the advance balance on the last provisional payment exceeds the payment, the amount paid comes out negative. The tool shows it: the contractor pays the difference in cash within thirty days, or the advance guarantee is cashed (13.9.4).

What this tool does not calculate

It builds the cover from this period's amount, not from cumulative amounts, and leaves out the ihzarat and minimum wage difference rows. It does not work out the 13.11 advance balance update or advance interest; enter them in row k. A late or partial advance (13.4), the SGK debt check, the delay penalty itself and the refund of defect deductions are not covered.

Legal basis: Income Tax Law art. 42 and 94; Corporate Tax Law art. 15; Stamp Duty Law No. 488, table (1) and article 14; VAT General Application Communiqué I/C-2.1.3; Public Procurement Contracts Law No. 4735 art. 12; Standard Contract for Works art. 13 and 30. For information only.

Frequently asked

About progress payment deductions

On the official cover the order is a, b, c, d, e, f, h, ı, g, i, j, with k last when there is one. The advance recovery (g) comes after the price adjustment guarantee (ı). A row with no amount still shows its name, with an empty amount.

Administrations differ. Where tax was withheld when the advance was paid, some take the advance recovered in this payment off the base; others withhold on the whole E, price adjustment included. The tool defaults to the whole E. Switch on "Withholding tax was taken when the advance was paid" and the base becomes E − g, and the label says so. The base never goes below zero.

No. Stamp duty is 9.48 per mille of the whole progress payment (E), price adjustment included; the advance recovery is not taken off the base.

Only to the price adjustment paid in this payment: 6% of it is held as an additional performance guarantee (Law No. 4735 art. 12). It does not apply to E, which already contains the price adjustment; applying it to E would take the adjustment twice. Nothing is held on a negative adjustment, or when the guarantee was given as a letter.

Where the contract pays price adjustment, 3% of the lump-sum part is held updated by an index from the contract date. The tool uses Domestic PPI (General): the ratio is the payment month's index over the contract month's, rounded to eight places. There is no floor; if the index falls, so does the deduction. If the payment month's index is not published yet, the newest published month is used and the row is provisional.

Article 30, but the paragraph number turns on the contract type. In a lump-sum contract the 3% for provisional acceptance defects is 30.1. In a unit-price contract the 5% for final account defects is 30.2. In a mixed contract 30.1 sets the unit-price part's 5% and 30.2 the lump-sum part's 3%.

The last provisional payment takes the whole remaining advance balance (13.9.4). If the payment cannot carry it, the contractor pays the difference in cash within thirty days; otherwise the advance guarantee is cashed and offset. The tool shows the negative amount rather than treating it as an error.
