In principle, joint stock company general assembly meetings are held at the company headquarters. However, in the case of the emergence of the reasons, namely in the case of merger of joint stock companies, in case the company operates geographically at many locations or in case the shareholders reside at different locations etc., such reasons may require that the general assembly meeting is held at a location outside the headquarters. Nevertheless, general assembly meetings may be held at a location different from the company headquarters, provided that this is allowed by the articles of association. Besides, such reference to a location as a meeting venue outside the headquarters in the articles of association constitutes only one aspect of the matter. This is because; the articles of association may refer to more than one meeting venue or possible meeting venues or may grant the board of directors the authorization to choose the meeting venue freely. In such cases which are observed very rarely in the Turkish joint stock companies’ practice, one should determine how the relevant provision in the articles of association should be prepared. Thus, the relevant disputes likely to arise in the future and particularly, violations against the shareholders’ right to attend the meeting may be prevented.
