Earthquakes in Türkiye
No events have been recorded in Türkiye in the past 30 days, though the great majority are too small to be felt at the surface. Activity here is almost entirely crustal, which means shaking at the surface is strong relative to the magnitudes involved.
4 earthquakes have been recorded in Türkiye in our catalogue, 0 of them in the past 30 days.
The average magnitude is 4.3 and the average focal depth 15 km. 4 events reached magnitude 4 or above, but none reached magnitude 5.
The strongest earthquake recorded in Türkiye in this period was a magnitude 4.5 event near Antalya, Türkiye on 03 January 2025, at a depth of 32 km. A magnitude 4.5 earthquake radiates roughly 85 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.
Locations recording the most events include Antalya (2), Erzurum (1), Hatay (1).
100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.
By band, the catalogue holds 4 in the magnitude 4 range.
No event in this record carries a USGS link to NOAA tsunami information.

Frequently asked questions
How many earthquakes have there been in Türkiye?
4 earthquakes are recorded in Türkiye in our catalogue, including 0 in the past 30 days and 4 of magnitude 4 or above.
What was the biggest earthquake in Türkiye?
The largest recorded here was a magnitude 4.5 event near Antalya, Türkiye on 03 January 2025.
Is Türkiye at risk of earthquakes?
Earthquake hazard depends on proximity to active faults and plate boundaries rather than on national borders. The record for Türkiye shows 4 events of magnitude 4 or above, which is the band at which shaking becomes widely noticeable. Consult your national seismic hazard agency for building-code and preparedness guidance.
