Why It Matters
The Ministry of National Education organizes the optional out-of-province appointment process for teachers who want to relocate between provinces with excuses such as family unity, health and life safety.
The interprovincial relocation process for teachers working within the Ministry of National Education (MEB) continues. Teachers who want to change their place of duty with excuses such as family unity, health and life safety are researching the 2026 out-of-province excuse appointment preference dates and the date when the appointment results will be announced. So, when are the applications for 2026 MEB teacher optional out-of-province assignments? When will the appointment results be announced? Here are the details...
WHEN APPLICATIONS FOR TEACHERS OPTIONAL OUTSIDE APPOINTMENT?
Preliminary applications, which are the first stage of the excused interprovincial relocation process, were received between 9-14 September 2026. The second stage, the preference applications, started today and teachers will be able to make their preferences until 16.00 on Thursday, September 17, 2026.
WHEN WILL TEACHER OPTIONAL OUTSIDE APPOINTMENT RESULTS BE ANNOUNCED?
Appointments will be made on September 18, 2026. Notification and termination of relations will also be carried out on the same date.
The process of relocating teachers between provinces due to excuse will be carried out in two stages: pre-application and preference application. Teachers who do not apply in the first stage will not be able to apply for preference in the second stage.
Applications will be made via the Electronic Application Form at mebbis.meb.gov.tr or personnel.meb.gov.tr. Teachers will submit the necessary documents during the application to the directorate of the educational institution where they work. Teachers whose applications are approved in the first stage will be able to choose among the educational institutions available to them in the second stage.
Teachers will be able to choose all the educational institutions open to preference in the province where their excuse is located. However, if a standard position is not created as a result of appointment in an educational institution that has been declared as likely to be vacant, the preference made for that institution will not be taken into consideration.
