An e-Visa is a document that permits you to enter Turkey as a tourist. You can apply and purchase it online from the comfort of your home. For anyone who is eligible, approval is instantaneous and you can print from the e-Visa within minutes.
If a Turkey eVisa is granted, it is linked electronically to the applicant's passport. In the case denied message is received instead, the provider refers the applicant to the nearest Turkish embassy. We strongly recommend travelers print a copy of their Turkish eVisa in case there is an issue with the computer terminals at the immigration office upon arrival. The validity duration of your e-Visa begins from your date specified as part of your application. You may enter Turkey on any date within that period.
The Turkey e-visa is barely valid when the aim of travel is tourism or commerce. Work and studying in Turkey requires a regular visa from your local Turkish Embassy. The requirements for a Turkish visa are that you can only apply nearly 3months prior to your departure date.
We can't process your e visa for Turkey before that time period so what we normally do is send out an automatic email reminder to say that your chosen order is put on hold. The Turkey e-visa is commonly valid for 30 or 90 days but depends on your own nationality. Exact validity can be found in the application process.
If you are in Turkey as well as extend your stay, you must apply at a local police station for just a residence permit. If you overstay your Turkey visa, you may be fined, banned from the future travel to Turkey.
If you have made an error when entering your data online, then please contact our support service representatives immediately via online chat to help you. Your e-Visa is linked to your passport number, once we already submitted your application, then you cannot make any changes and you will have to apply again but we will not charge you another service fee.
An e-Visa costs $29 and you can pay using a credit or debit card. You can apply up to three months well before your travel date. Turkish visit visas issued on arrival are valid for multiple stays as much as a more 90 days in a 180 day period.
It's worth noting that failure to obtain an e visa for Turkey in advance of departure could result in you being refused entry into Turkey, so that we recommend securing this as early as possible. If require further information, please visit www.evisa-turkey.biz.tr.
