Transitvisum in Turkey

By Omid Soltani

Hello, I and my family (Wife and son) are travelling from Sweden to Afghanistan and will have an 8-hour stop in Turkey before taking our next flight. I and my son are swedish citizen but my wife holds an Afghan passport, and we would like to know whether she needs a transit visa for Turkey.We will remain inside the airport during the entire layover, but we will need to collect our checked luggage and check it in again for the next flight in the same airport. I have read on the Turkey e-Visa website that a transit visa is not required if you stay inside the airport.Given this situation, does my wife still need a transit visa?
