Frequently Asked Questions

I made a mistake on my Turkey eVisa application. Can I amend it after submission?

If the Turkey eVisa has been processed, it can't be modified and a new one must be applied for.

What should I do if my country is not eligible for a Turkey eVisa?

If your nationality is not eligible for an eVisa and not exempt from visa requirements, you must apply for a traditional sticker visa through the nearest Turkish embassy or consulate before your travel.

Can I visit Turkey multiple times using an eVisa?

This depends on your nationality. The Turkey eVisa is issued as either a single-entry or multiple-entry authorization based on the passport you hold. You can verify your entry status during the application process.

My country is visa-exempt for 90 days, but I plan to stay for 4 months. What should I do?

Visa-exempt travellers looking to stay beyond their permitted 30 or 90-day period must apply for a long-term visa or secure a Turkish residence permit (Ikamet) from the local authorities before their visa-free period expires.

Need help putting it all together?

You don't have to navigate the bureaucracy alone. Our specialists review your documents, correct errors before submission, and provide 24/7 human support to ensure approval.
