History

In 1922, the Reservoir of Documents (Turkish: Mahzen-i Evrak Mümeyyizliği) was established in Istanbul, affiliated to Directorate of the Board of Chief Executive Offices (İcra Vekilleri Heyeti Başkanlığı). Its name was changed to the Examining Office of Document Resources (Hazine-i Evrak Mümeyyizliği) in 1923. In 1927, it became affiliated to the Prime Undersecretariat (Başvekâlet Müsteşarlığı) under the name of Managing Office of Document Resources (Hazine-i Evrak Müdür Muavinliği). In May 1933, pursuant to the Organization Law, the Document Management (Evrak Müdürlüğü) in Ankara and the Document Resources Management (Hazine-i Evrak Müdürlüğü) in Istanbul were merged under the name of Prime Documents and Document Resources Management (Başvekâlet Evrak ve Hazine-i Evrak Müdürlüğü). In 1937, the name of the Document Resources Office was changed into the Archives Department Management (Arşiv Dairesi Müdürlüğü). In 1943, the General Directorate of Public Archives (Başvekâlet Arşiv Umum Müdürlüğü) was established.

In 1976, the Republic Archives Department (Cumhuriyet Arşivi Dairesi Başkanlığı) was established under the Prime Ministry Undersecretariat (Başbakanlık Müsteşarlığı). According to the Law No. 3473, the task of this department was to record documents related to different governmental organizations and institutions after the establishment of the republic, including the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, and to keep an archive of documents related to the Turkish War of Independence and other historical events preceding the republic era (see Ottoman Archives). On 10 July 2018, it became affiliated with the Presidential Office with the Presidential Decree No. 1 and its name was changed to the "Directorate of State Archives".[1]
