• An e-Visa is an official document permitting entry into and travel within Turkey.
• The e-Visa is an alternative to visas issued at Turkish missions and at the ports of entry.
• Applicants obtain their visas electronically after entering required information and making payments by a credit or debit card (Mastercard or Visa).

What are my Passport Requirements?

• Your Travel Document must be valid for at least 6 months from the date you intend to enter Turkey.
• Depending on your nationality, there may be additional requirements.
• You will be informed of these additional requirements after you select your country of travel document and travel dates in the e-Visa application process.

What are the Advantanges of an e-Visa?:

• It’s cheaper.
• No lining up for the old-style Stamp Visa at the Airport.
• Update October 28th 2018: new changes mean the only way to obtain an e-Visa is to purchase it online BEFORE you arrive in the country. You will no longer be able to buy one at a visa desk in the immigration hall.

Do I need to enter Turkey on the exact date day I put on my e-Visa Application?

• No. The valid period of your e-Visa begins from the date specified on your application.
• You can enter Turkey on any date within this period.

If I change my dates, can I revise my e-Visa?

• No. You must apply for a new e-Visa if your travel dates fall outside of your current visa.
