Electronic online visa help

Hi there, If you’re just transiting through Turkey and will remain inside the international transit area of the airport without passing through immigration, you usually don’t need a Turkish transit visa. A visa is only required if you plan to leave the airport or if your airline requires you to go through immigration to re-check your baggage or change terminals. It’s always a good idea to double-check with your airline, since some carriers handle connections differently. Safe travels to Saudi Arabia!

Hi there! I’m also planning to travel to Turkey soon for studies, and I went through the student visa process recently. You’ll need to apply for your Turkish student visa at the Turkish Embassy or Consulate in China before your trip. It’s best to check with the Turkish Embassy in China for the latest requirements. Good luck with your doctorate program!

Hello Shukri, A few days ago, I also applied for my grandmother’s visa from Iraq, and she was holding an Iraqi passport. Someone helped me with the same concern, so I’d be happy to share the information with you. Please note that Iraqi passport holders are required to obtain a visa to enter Turkey. There are no exemptions based on age (including travelers over 55 years old). However, if you have holds a valid visa or residence permit from the Schengen area, the US, the UK, or Ireland, they may be eligible to apply for an electronic visa (eVisa). If these supporting documents are not available, then the only option is to apply for a regular/sticker visa directly through the nearest Turkish Embassy or Consulate. For your convenience, you can also apply directly through this website for eVisa :https://turkey-evisa.it.com/application/ And you can also check the required documents here for clarity:https://turkey-evisa.it.com/turkey-documents-requirement/ I hope this helps and makes things easier for you. 🌸

I had the same doubt before my trip. Don’t worry — as long as your Turkey e-Visa is valid for your travel dates and your passport has at least 6 months’ validity, you won’t face any issues at entry. The six-month rule is about the passport, not your Schengen visa.

Hi there! 👋 I’m also an Indonesian passport holder and have looked into this before. Indonesian citizens can enter Türkiye for short visits without needing an e-Visa — you can stay visa-free for up to 30 days within a 180-day period. So if you’re only planning to visit for 1 day as a tourist, you won’t need to apply for an e-Visa. Just make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry. Safe travels and enjoy your trip! ✈️
