A Complete Guide on Turkey Visa For Indians

Turkey is a great place to travel because of its many cultures, histories, artwork, and monuments. All Indians who want to travel to Turkey must obtain an online or offline visa in order to sample these. This tutorial will teach you everything you need to know about obtaining a Turkey visa as an Indian citizen and eventually applying for one, regardless of your travel goals—work, education, or leisure.

Does an Indian citizen need a visa to enter Turkey?

Indeed! Indian nationals travelling to Turkey do require a visa. Turkey is becoming an excellent destination site, and a visa-on-arrival service for Indians travelling to Turkey is unavailable; you need to get an e-visa or a sticker visa with a 30-day validity. 

Turkish visa categories

Depending on the purpose of your visit—travel, business, education, or even film production—Turkey offers a variety of visas. Two of the most common visa categories for Indian visitors to Turkey are as follows:

Indian tourists can obtain a visa to Turkey.

Indian nationals are eligible to apply for Turkish tourist visas with one or more entries.

For Indian passport holders, the six-month validity of the tourist e-visa allows you to travel whenever you choose during that time. You are only allowed to stay in the nation for a maximum of 30 days once you enter. You will need to apply for a short-term residency permit if you intend to stay longer.

Generally, cruise passengers making a day stop in Turkey won't require a visa for that particular port, but it's advisable to check with the cruise line directly.

Indian workers' visas to Turkey

Only those with an employment contract from a Turkish company are eligible for a work visa to enter Turkey. The employment contract must state the employer's address in Turkey and be written in both English and Turkish. It is not required to attach an invitation letter from the employer with your name and passport number to the employment contract.

The application process for a work visa is the same as for a tourist visa and must be completed through Gateway International; however, more paperwork and processing time will be needed. 

Visa on arrival for Indians in Turkey

Indian passport holders are unable to obtain a visa upon arrival. US and certain Caribbean and European passport holders are eligible for visa-on-arrival if they fulfil the standards set forth by the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

India transit visa for citizens of India

You won't require a transit visa if you are travelling with Turkish Airlines and have a layover in Istanbul as long as you stay inside the airport. You need to apply for a tourist visa if you plan to exit the airport. 

What is the price of a Turkish visa in India?

The following fees apply to Indian passport holders seeking a work or tourist visa to Turkey. The application fee and the admission fee add up to the total cost. The price is determined by the quantity of entries and the duration of the visa's validity.

Remember that when you schedule the visa appointment, you will need to pay INR 6,814 of the total fee. Upon completion of your appointment and submission of your documentation, the outstanding balance for your visa must be paid. There is no reimbursement for the visa cost.

For an extra charge, Gateway International provides photocopies, courier delivery, and premium lounge access.

Turkish visa requirements for nationals of India

A passport that expires more than 60 days after the date of travel for all Indian citizens must be less than ten years old. Every applicant for a visa must also schedule an appointment with Gateway International and pay the initial portion of the application cost.

The documents you must bring to your appointment for a work or tourist visa are listed below. You may find the necessary paperwork for a business or student visa on the Gateway International website. 

Documents needed to obtain a tourist visa for Turkey

These are the documents you need to bring with you to your appointment:

Two white-background, 2.5 × 2.5-inch pictures shot in the last six months.

two blank pages in the passport, at least.

genuine bank statements for the last three months.

Tour schedule, if applicable.

Print a copy of your hotel or lodging reservation.

acceptance of a confirmed round-trip airline ticket or departure ticket from Turkey.

copies of the passport's front and back pages.

Confirmation of appointment.

receipt for the relevant application fee part.

Present proof of having at least 50 USD every day throughout your stay in Turkey, expressed in Indian rupees. You must therefore present the equivalent of USD 350 in an accessible account if you plan to stay for seven days.

For your journey, you might need to get travel insurance. If you want a policy, you will have the opportunity to obtain one at the Visa Application Centre.

Documents needed to obtain a work visa for Turkey

A tourist visa also requires some documents, but there are a few more that you'll need:⁵

Two white-background, 2.5 × 2.5-inch pictures shot in the last six months.

passport that has been valid for at least a year and contains two full blank pages.

Employment Agreement (in Turkish and English) from Turkey Company with the workplace address.

original certificate of police clearance.

copies of the passport's front and back pages.

If one is available, an invitation letter from the business. 

How to apply from India for a visa to Turkey

The only company authorised to grant Turkish visas is Gateway International, which serves as the Embassy of Turkey's partner in India.

Making an appointment and paying a portion of the application price upfront makes applying for a visa to Turkey distinct. You have to fill out the application in person at the nearest Visa Application Centre by showing up for the appointment with your paperwork in hand.

Your documents will be submitted at the Visa Application Centre, but the relevant Turkish government will handle your application as a whole, depending on where in the country you now reside. Applications for North India should be sent to the Turkish Embassy in Delhi; those for the remainder of India should go through the Consulate in Mumbai or Hyderabad.

Sunday saw events in Afghanistan unfold with lightning speed with reports that President Ashraf Ghani had left Afghanistan with his top advisers in tow after resigning and the Taliban had entered the capital of Kabul.

From the US secretary of state insisting that a repeat of Saigon was not occurring to Pakistan's foreign office expressing hope for a political settlement,  here's how the world reacted to Sunday's events:

'This is not Saigon', says US secretary of State

US secretary of state Antony Blinken flat out rejected Sunday comparisons between Washington's Kabul pullout and the chaotic American departure from Saigon in 1975.

"This is not Saigon," he told ABC. "The fact of the matter is this: We went to Afghanistan 20 years ago with one mission in mind. That was to deal with the people that attacked us on 9/11. That mission has been successful."

Blinken further blamed the defence forces for not being able to defend Afghanistan and issued a warning to the Taliban.

Blinken, defending the Biden administration, told CNN, "The idea that the status quo could have been maintained by keeping our forces there, I think, is simply wrong."

 “We haven’t asked the Taliban for anything," Blinken further said. "We’ve told the Taliban that if they interfere with our personnel, with our operations as we’re proceeding with this drawdown, there will be a swift and decisive response."

'Hope all sides will work together': Pakistan

Pakistan said on Sunday that it was closely watching the evolving situation in neighbouring Afghanistan while making efforts for a political settlement, as the Taliban insurgents entered Kabul and moved closer to retaking full control of the war-torn country. Foreign Office spokesperson Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri issued a statement about the current situation in Afghanistan where the Taliban control large areas of the country,

“Pakistan is closely following the unfolding situation in Afghanistan. Pakistan will continue to support the efforts for a political settlement. We hope all Afghan sides will work together to resolve this internal political crisis,” he said. Chaudhri said the Embassy of Pakistan in Kabul was extending necessary assistance to Pakistanis, Afghan nationals and the diplomatic and international community for consular work and coordination of the Pakistan International Airlines flights.

He said a special inter-ministerial cell has been established in the Ministry of Interior to facilitate visa/arrival matters for diplomatic personnel, UN agencies, international organisations, the media, and others.

'Closely monitoring fast-changing situation', says MEA

Sources told ANI that India is closely monitoring the fast-changing situation in Afghanistan to decide on the evacuation of diplomatic personnel from Kabul.

People familiar with the development said the government will not put the lives of its staffers at the Indian embassy and Indian citizens in Kabul at any risk and plans have already been finalised in case they require emergency evacuation. "The government is closely monitoring the fast-paced developments in Afghanistan. We will not put the lives of our staff at the Indian embassy in Kabul at any risk," said one of the persons cited above.

Specifically asked when the Indian staffers and citizens in Kabul will be evacuated, they said decisions will depend on the ground situation. It is learnt that a fleet of the C-17 Globemaster military transport aircraft of the Indian Air Force is kept on standby to undertake evacuation missions.

'Biggest disaster since Suez', says Tory MP

Prime Minister Boris Johnson was on Sunday to hold further crisis talks on Afghanistan, his office said, as he recalled Parliament from its summer break. A Downing Street spokesperson said Johnson had called a meeting of the COBR emergencies committee to discuss the situation, which follows the withdrawal of US-led forces, the second such meeting in three days.

Parliament on Sunday said it had approved Johnson's request to call back MPs on Wednesday for an urgent debate on what Britain, which lost 457 troops in the two-decade-long war, should do next. Taliban fighters were on the outskirts of Kabul on Sunday and on the brink of a complete military takeover of Afghanistan, leading British politicians to call for a last-ditch intervention. Conservative MP Tobias Ellwood, chairman of the Commons Defence Committee, urged Johnson to "think again" about stepping in.

"We have an ever-shrinking window of opportunity to recognise where this country is going as a failed state," he told Times Radio. "Just because the Americans won't, does not mean to say that we should be tied to the thinking, the political judgement, particularly when it is so wrong, of our closest security ally.

"We could prevent this, otherwise history will judge us very, very harshly in not stepping in," he warned. Ellwood said the government could deploy the Royal Navy's HMS Queen Elizabeth carrier strike group to provide air support. He called the crisis "the biggest single policy disaster since Suez".

Defence Secretary Ben Wallace defended Britain’s move to pull troops out of the country. Writing in the Sunday Telegraph, he said “we have not betrayed Afghanistan.” He wrote that the UK could not “go it alone” after the US announced its plans to withdraw. “It would be arrogant to think we could solve Afghanistan unilaterally,” he said.

Johnson vowed on Friday that Britain will not "turn our backs" on Afghanistan, even as he confirmed the imminent withdrawal of most embassy staff in the face of a rapid Taliban onslaught.

However, he said that those calling for an intervention "have got to be realistic about the power of the UK or any power to impose a military solution -- a combat solution -- in Afghanistan". With the Islamists seizing control of more Afghan cities, Britain is deploying around 600 troops to help evacuate its roughly 3,000 nationals from the country, and Johnson said the "vast bulk" of remaining embassy staff in Kabul would return to the UK.

The Foreign Office said on Sunday that Britain had "temporarily suspended most operations" at its embassy in Kabul and was doing "all we can to enable remaining British nationals, and those Afghans who have worked for us and who are eligible for relocation, to leave Afghanistan". Opposition Labour leader Keir Starmer backed the move to recall parliament, saying in a statement: "The situation in Afghanistan is deeply shocking and seems to be worsening by the hour.

"The government has been silent while Afghanistan collapses, which let's be clear will have ramifications for us here in the UK. "We need parliament recalled so the government can update MPs on how it plans to work with allies to avoid a humanitarian crisis and a return to the days of Afghanistan being a base for extremists."

Most of the remaining British troops assigned to the NATO mission in Afghanistan left last month, according to Johnson. As well as the fallen troops, the conflict has cost Britain around £40 billion ($55 billion).

In 2014, the British mission in Afghanistan, centred on the restive southern province of Helmand, shifted from a combat operation to one focused on supporting Afghan national forces, with the help of around 750 troops.

'Will work for stability', vows Erdogan

Turkey’s president says his country will work for stability in Afghanistan along with Pakistan, in order to stem a growing migration wave amid the Taliban's countrywide offensive. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Afghans were increasingly attempting to migrate to Turkey via Iran, urging an international effort to bring stability to the country and prevent mass migration.

Erdogan was speaking at a naval ceremony with Pakistan’s president. He said Pakistan had a “vital task” to bring peace and stability to Afghanistan, where clashes have intensified. Turkish-Pakistani cooperation would be needed for this, and Turkey would use all possibilities to do so, Erdogan added. Erdogan did not mention any changes to a proposal for Turkey to secure and operate the airport in Kabul.

'Share unanimous concern', says Pope

Pope Francis said Sunday that he shares “the unanimous concern for the situation in Afghanistan" as Taliban fighters sweep across the war-torn country. He spoke as the Taliban entered the outskirts of Kabul, the Afghan capital, and said they were awaiting a “peaceful transfer” of the city. From a window overlooking St. Peter's Square, the pope asked for prayers “so that the clamor of weapons may cease and solutions may be found at the negotiating table.”

He added that “only in this way, may the battered population of the country -- men and women, elderly and children -- return to their homes and live in peace and safety, with full mutual respect.”

'Shall not say no,' says Albania's PM

Albania's prime minister says his country will temporarily shelter hundreds of Afghans who worked with the Western peacekeeping military forces and are now threatened by the Taliban. On his Facebook page, Edi Rama said the US.government had asked Albania to serve as a “transit place for a certain number of Afghan political emigrants who have the United States as their final destination.”

“No doubt we shall not say no,” he said.

He added that the Albanian government has also responded positively to requests from two US NGOs to shelter hundreds of Afghan intellectuals and women activists who have been threatened with execution by the Taliban.

The Albanian prime minister said that his country stands alongside the United States “not only when we need them for our problems ... but even when they need us, any time.”

The Maldives is now open to all global tourists. Here’s how they’re doing it

(CNN) — Though border restrictions and quarantine measures are keeping people from visiting many of the world’s most popular travel destinations at the moment, one country famed for its natural beauty is now welcoming all guests — the Maldives.

As of July 15, this island nation in the Indian Ocean is reopen to international tourism and, perhaps remarkably, very few strings are attached.

Global travelers — US citizens included — will not have to enter into a mandatory quarantine upon arrival at Velana International Airport in the capital, Male. Nor will they need to produce proof they have tested negative for coronavirus.

There are also no new visa requirements or additional fees to pay.

One island, one resort

In the beginning, international visitors will only be allowed on the resort islands and they need to book their entire stay in one registered establishment.

Exemptions will only be made for transit arrangements, according to the Maldives government’s guidelines.

In terms of Covid-19 prevention, tourism officials are banking on the fact each resort essentially offers its own form of quarantine already — albeit a pretty enjoyable one.

Trans Maldivian Airways is the world’s largest float plane operator. We go on the job with one of its most experienced pilots, Canadian Andrew Farr.

The Maldives is made up of 26 atolls filled with over 1,000 islands occupied by dozens of resorts, all spread out over 90,000 square kilometers.

Most of the islands in the Maldives developed for tourism feature just a single resort. Should guests or staff come into contact with someone who tests positive for Covid-19, in theory they will be easily traceable, while the potential for spread is kept to a minimum.

But as enticing as it sounds to hop on a plane for the Maldives right now, travelers may have to contend with their own country’s quarantine measures upon their return — and that might deter them from visiting.

“What is important to take into consideration is that it depends not only on the Maldives, but also on lifting of travel restrictions in different countries. It is not just desire but ability,” says Sonu Shivdasani, CEO and founder of Soneva, which has two Maldives resorts — Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani.

That said, guests are already demonstrating a willingness to return, he tells CNN Travel.

“We have more on the books at Soneva Fushi for August than we had at the same time last year. As the borders open, and our main markets are allowed to travel to us, it could be our best August ever.”

Are any airlines actually flying there?

In spite of the global aviation downturn, it is possible to fly to the Maldives commercially right now, with several major airlines connecting through the Middle East.

These include Emirates Airlines, which offers connections through Dubai from major global cities like London, Chicago, Toronto and Sydney. Fellow UAE carrier Etihad will resume flights from Abu Dhbai to the Maldives from July 16. Turkish Airlines is tentatively starting flights from July 17.

The 5.8 Undersea Restaurant is the world’s largest of its type. A $200 prix-fixe menu accompanies a view teeming with coral life.

Bear in mind, just because the Maldives isn’t requiring visitors to submit proof they’re Covid-19-free, some airlines are, so be sure to check ahead of time.

Upon arrival, passengers are asked to fill in health declaration cards and a 30-day tourist visa will be provided. Travelers showing symptoms of Covid-19 will be subjected to a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test at their own cost and sent to a designated facility for isolation.

Are all resorts reopening on July 15?

Of the 156 resorts on Maldives Tourism’s list of reopening dates, 43 will be open July 15. (Several on that list remained open throughout the pandemic, serving guests who choose to stay there, or those who came in later via private plane or yacht.)

Dozens more will reopen in August, with 50 or so more planning to follow suit in September and October.

French hospitality group Accor has five Maldives resorts and will be staggering openings in the coming months.

“We intend to reopen Mercure Maldives Kooddoo Resort from August 1, followed by Pullman Maldives Maamutaa Resort in September,” says John Bendtsen, Accor Area General Manager for the Maldives.

“Our remaining properties in the Maldives will reopen from October 2020 — Mövenpick Resort Kuredhivaru Maldives, Fairmont Maldives Sirru Fen Fushi and Raffles Maldives Meradhoo.”

So far, the response from guests has been very positive although cautious, he says.

“We are seeing a real appetite for travel more towards the end of the year with the Christmas and New Year period particularly positive as well as the first quarter of 2021,” says Bendtsen.

“Travelers who have already visited the Maldives previously are much more confident and we are seeing a lot of returning guests make bookings for the 4th quarter of 2020.”

Soneva Jani’s not your typical luxury resort. Here’s what visitors at this “no shoes, no news” property can expect.

In terms of health and safety, the government is issuing “Safe Tourism Licenses” to accredit tourist facilities that abide by legislation and specific safety requirements like having a certified medic on call and holding an “adequate stock” of personal protection equipment.

Some resorts are implementing additional measures to protect guests and staff.

At Soneva’s two properties, for instance, guests will be asked to undergo a Covid-19 PCR test at the brand’s private airport lounge before they’re transferred to their resort by plane. Once at the resort, they will go straight to their villa and are requested to remain there until the test results are received and are negative.

If a guest’s results come back positive, they will be asked to isolate in their villa, where they will be looked after by trained nurses.

“During the first week of stay, we would also ask guests to take one more real-time PCR test,” says Shivdasani.

“Although this could be considered as being slightly excessive or over-cautious, at Soneva, all our islands are ‘One Island One Resort;’ it is our goal to make our private island homes Covid-19 free environments, so that our guests can truly relax and engage with our hosts and fellow guests and not feel any concern about being infected.”

Soneva remained open throughout the pandemic and has been following the best practices recommended by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as well as the recommendations of virology and infectious diseases experts, adds Shivdasani. Enhanced cleaning and sanitation protocols are also in place.

Reopening gives Maldives ‘first mover advantage’

The Maldives has recorded nearly 2,000 confirmed cases and five deaths from Covid-19 so far.

Like all countries heavily reliant on tourism, it’s been hit hard by the crisis — and at a time when their tourism fortunes were rising. According to the World Bank, tourism directly and indirectly accounts for two-thirds of the country’s GDP.

The industry flourished in 2019 as visitor arrivals grew by 14.7% (year on year), with total arrivals reaching a record 1.7 million. Officials were hoping they’d hit 2 million arrivals this year.

In a statement issued in May, Ali Waheed, the country’s minister for tourism, described the impact of the coronavirus pandemic as “more devastating than the 2004 tsunami and the 2008 global financial crisis.”

The Conrad Maldives Rangali Island has opened the world’s first-ever underwater hotel residence.

“For the first time in 47 years of tourism in the Maldives, we have experienced zero tourist arrival since this March,” he said, before adding, “we cannot keep our borders closed for long.”

Eunice Aw, Singapore director of global hospitality consulting firm Horwath HTL, tells CNN Travel via email the tourism industry in the Maldives has proven to be resilient, bouncing back quickly from previous crises, however the country faces an uphill battle as they unlock their border to all visitors.

“Given the unprecedentedness of Covid-19, moving forward, even with the reopening of borders, visitor arrivals are not expected to surge and overall arrivals in 2020 are estimated to fall by approximately 70 to 75% year on year,” she says.

“This takes into consideration the pandemic situation in many of the Maldives’ main source markets such as China (17%), India (10%), Europe (49%) and the US (3%), where countries are either still trying to contain the pandemic or battle against second or third waves of the infection.”

Adding to this, Europe — their biggest market — is a 10 to 12 hours’ flight away and long haul travel recovery is likely to lag behind short haul travel, she adds.

“Tourism recovery has to be further supported by the resumption of international flights, reciprocal travel arrangements with partner countries, relaxation of quarantine/isolation requirements in visitors’ home countries and recovery in travelers’ confidence to travel.

“Nonetheless, the reopening of its borders in July will give the Maldives a first mover advantage to capture pent up demand of holidaymakers once recovery is on the way.”

It has been inhabited by various civilizations such as Greeks, Assyrians, Thracian and Armenians. Perhaps the well known Ottoman Empire is the one which united most of Turkey after it was disintegrated during Mongol Invasion. But soon during World War I, Turkey was again disintegrated into various territories and under Mustafa Kemal Atatürk there was a Turkish War of Independence during the year 1919 which resulted in the abolition of Monarchy and the Republic of Turkey was formed in the year 1923. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk became the first president of the Republic of Turkey and since then it has been developing.

A Complete Guide on Turkey Visa For Indians

Turkey is a great place to travel because of its many cultures, histories, artwork, and monuments.

This tutorial will teach you everything you need to know about obtaining a Turkey visa as an Indian citizen and eventually applying for one, regardless of your travel goals—work, education, or leisure.

Does an Indian citizen need a visa to enter Turkey?

Indeed! Indian nationals travelling to Turkey do require a visa. Turkey is becoming an excellent destination site, and a visa-on-arrival service for Indians travelling to Turkey is unavailable; you need to get an e-visa or a sticker visa with a 30-day validity. 

Turkish visa categories

Depending on the purpose of your visit—travel, business, education, or even film production—Turkey offers a variety of visas. Two of the most common visa categories for Indian visitors to Turkey are as follows:

Indian tourists can obtain a visa to Turkey.

Indian nationals are eligible to apply for Turkish tourist visas with one or more entries.

For Indian passport holders, the six-month validity of the tourist e-visa allows you to travel whenever you choose during that time. You are only allowed to stay in the nation for a maximum of 30 days once you enter. You will need to apply for a short-term residency permit if you intend to stay longer.

Generally, cruise passengers making a day stop in Turkey won't require a visa for that particular port, but it's advisable to check with the cruise line directly.

Indian workers' visas to Turkey

Only those with an employment contract from a Turkish company are eligible for a work visa to enter Turkey. The employment contract must state the employer's address in Turkey and be written in both English and Turkish. It is not required to attach an invitation letter from the employer with your name and passport number to the employment contract.

The application process for a work visa is the same as for a tourist visa and must be completed through Gateway International; however, more paperwork and processing time will be needed. 

Visa on arrival for Indians in Turkey

Indian passport holders are unable to obtain a visa upon arrival. US and certain Caribbean and European passport holders are eligible for visa-on-arrival if they fulfil the standards set forth by the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

India transit visa for citizens of India

You won't require a transit visa if you are travelling with Turkish Airlines and have a layover in Istanbul as long as you stay inside the airport. You need to apply for a tourist visa if you plan to exit the airport.
