An e-Visa is an official document that permits entry into and travel within Türkiye.

To obtain an e-Visa, applicants must complete the form by entering the required information and making a payment using a credit or debit card (Mastercard, Visa, Discover). Once the application is successfully completed and processed, your e-Visa will be sent to you via email.

Passport control officers at ports of entry can verify your e-Visa based on your passport number. However, it is recommended to keep a copy of your e-Visa with you, either as a digital copy (on a tablet, smartphone, etc.) or as a printed hard copy, in case of any system issues.

Please note that, as with other visas, Indian officials at the ports of entry have the right to deny entry to Türkiye to an e-Visa holder without providing an explanation.

Passport or Travel Document: According to article 7.1b of “the Law on Foreigners and International Protection” no. 6458, you must carry a passport or a travel document as a substitute for a passport. This document must have an expiration date at least 60 days beyond the “duration of stay” of your e-Visa.

2. Additional Requirements: Depending on your nationality, there may be additional requirements. You will be informed of these specific requirements after selecting your country of travel document and travel dates during the application process.

The e-Visa costs 85 euros or its equivalent in the following supported currencies:
GBP, USD, ZAR, TRY, SAR, SGD, SEK, RON, PLN, NZD, NOK, MXN, JPY, ILS, HUF, HKD, DKK, CZK, CHF, CAD, AUD, BGN, QAR, THB, and AED.

2. Time-saving: It eliminates the need to visit Indian embassies or consulates, or wait at ports of entry for visa applications.
