FAST, EFT and havale move TRY between accounts in Turkey.

They can be used to fund a transfer to South Africa, but from there money transfer services switch to internal network of accounts or other transfer rails.

Large transfers & limits in Turkey

There is no single universal personal-transfer limit, but your bank or transfer company can ask where the money came from and why it is leaving Turkey.

For property proceeds, tuition or moving savings, keep the sale document, invoice or recent statement ready.

Large gifts can also fall under Turkey's inheritance and gift tax rules, so check the tax position before sending a lump sum to South Africa.
