Questions about this visa
I have a valid Schengen visa. Does that help?
For several nationalities a valid Schengen, UK or US visa or residence permit makes you eligible for the Turkish e-visa. We check the conditions for your passport.
How early should I apply for a sticker visa?
Four weeks before travel is comfortable. Before Eid and the summer the visa centre gets busy, so we book your appointment as soon as you confirm.
Is the balloon ride in Cappadocia affected by the visa?
No. Once you are in Türkiye domestic travel needs no extra permit.
