The technological device support for higher education students came into effect with the announcement published in the Official Gazette in 2023. This support, which is among the topics that students considering buying a computer are curious about, is only valid for computers under 9,500 TL. However, it should also be noted that there is no specific application for certain brands in the form of tax-free computer brands.

To benefit from the support, it is necessary to meet the current application rules, rather than the brand and model of the computer. Here are some tax-free computer brands you can buy!

Which Computer Brands Are Tax-Free?

Different brands’ products can be valued within the scope of computer support. However, whether a computer is within the scope of support is not determined solely by its brand. The support is valid only once for devices under 9,500 TL.

Some brands that produce or sell computers on the market and that students may encounter are:

• Lenovo
• Casper
• Acer
• HP
• Asus
• Dell

What to Consider When Buying a Tax-Free Computer?

The Ministry of Youth and Sports’ Young Technology Support program has various conditions for computer support. According to the published application requirements, the student must be a citizen of the Republic of Turkey and be enrolled in a higher education institution, excluding open education programs. In addition, there are rules stating that the student must not have reached the age of 26. Furthermore, the device must not be second-hand and must have an invoice.

Therefore, it is important to check the new application conditions before purchasing a computer. We must reiterate that when researching tax-free computer brands, attention should be paid not only to the brand but also to whether the model to be purchased meets the support requirements.
