Hi Guys

Just heard and saw on TV that if you live in Turkey and want to drink by your own in your house, you need to pursue a licence, otherwise, it is forbidden. They said also that bars and some coffees usually proposing Alcohol are closing "Birer Birer" because of the rise of Islamic Fundamentalism, and that to pursue the Alcohol Licence, you need to pay something, and you need some doccuments right ? could you please tell me if this is true ?

Thanx for your help.

lol are you kidding or what? No licence is needed ( not yet). If you are over 18, that is ok.
