The Turkey visa is a mandatory entry requirement for most foreign nationals planning a temporary visit to Turkey for tourism, business, or other short-term purposes. Depending on nationality, applicants may apply for an e-Visa online or a sticker visa through a Turkish Embassy, Consulate, or authorized Visa Application Center. Applicants must provide accurate personal details, passport information, travel itinerary, proof of accommodation, financial statements, and travel insurance. The e-Visa application is submitted electronically through the official Turkish e-Visa portal, where approval and confirmation are issued digitally and must be carried during travel. For sticker visa applications, an appointment is required at the visa center, and applicants must bring the completed visa form, supporting documents, and a valid passport. All information provided must be truthful and complete to avoid delays or refusals. Once approved, the Turkey visa typically permits a stay of 30 to 90 days, depending on the applicant’s nationality and visa type.
