Türkiye applies nationality-based rules for business visitors. Many EU, UK and several other passport holders may enter visa-free for short business/tourism stays (typically up to 90 days in any 180), while US, Canadian, Australian, Indian and many other nationalities must obtain an e-Visa before travel through the official portal at evisa.gov.tr (fee varies by nationality, roughly USD 50–60). Nationalities not eligible for visa-free entry or e-Visa need a consular/sticker visa. Passports should typically be valid at least 150 days beyond the date of entry, and border officers may ask for hotel booking, return ticket and proof of funds. Confirm your specific case with the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the nearest Turkish mission before booking.
Estimated cost: Varies by visa type and nationality (check official site).
Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.
Apply only via the official Republic of Türkiye portal (evisa.gov.tr); copycat sites charge substantial mark-ups. Fee varies by nationality — budget approximately USD 50–60; some nationalities may require additional supporting documents. Stay limits and 180-day windows apply; overstaying results in fines and entry bans. Check the Turkish MFA visa list for your nationality before booking.
