The visa route

Many nationalities (for example EU states, the USA, Australia, Argentina) can visit visa-free, usually for up to 90 days in any 180 days. Others can get an e-Visa online at www.evisa.gov.tr for tourism or business, sometimes only if they already hold a valid Schengen, US, UK or Irish visa or residence permit. Everyone else applies for a sticker visa at a Turkish embassy or consulate after pre-applying online.Requirements and documentsAnother passport?
