Tajik–Turkish relations (Tajik: Муносибатҳои Тоҷикистон бо Туркия; Turkish: Tacikistan-Türkiye ilişkileri) are friendly and cooperative and underlined with a legal basis of more than 30 treaties and protocols which have been signed between two countries since 1991.

[1] Turkey recognized the independence of Tajikistan on 16 December 1991 and established diplomatic relations on 29 January 1992.

Tajik President Emomali Rahmon made a 19–22 January 2006 official visit to Turkey.

Turkish President Abdullah Gül made a 29 June 2009 official visit to Dushanbe where he met with Tajik President Rahmon to discuss bilateral relations,[8] with Gül reiterating the two countries common stance on “terrorism, extremist movements, illegal immigration, drug and arms smuggling, organised crime and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction,” before concentrating on Afghanistan (as he had done in his preceding visit to Kyrgyzstan) by stating, “Afghanistan’s stability and peace is very important for Central Asia and the rest of the world.

Tajikistan, which shares a land border of 1,400 kilometres with Afghanistan, has always played a constructive role in this regard.”[9] The founder of the Tajik Group 24 opposition movement, Umarali Quvatov, was assassinated in Turkey in March 2015.
