The annual lists begin in 1874/75, with Mehmed Ali as Antalya Rüsûmat Müdürlüğü iskele kâtibi in Antalya, the birthplace, where the entries run to 1878/79. Alongside, the lists for 1878 to 1889 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Teke Rüsûmat kâtibi, with a rise to customs official (Rüsumat Memuru) in 1884/85.
