Istanbul formerly referred to as Byzantium and Constantinople, is famed for its timeless charm that owes a great deal to its rich history. Istanbul’s imperial sites, modern skyscrapers, and malls make it a perfect blend of east meets west. This populous city of Turkey has always been a tourist favorite. While you depart for your Turkey holidays, you need to make sure you have the right documents in hand including your Turkey Visa.
Since 2014, Turkey does not provide Visa on arrival for Indian citizens. To visit Turkey as a tourist, you need to apply for either an electronic visa (e-Visa) or a sticker visa. The Turkey visa for Indian tourists is valid for a period of 90 days.
If you have a valid visa or residence permit of Schengen, US, UK, and Ireland, then you are eligible to apply for a Turkish e-Visa. The e-visa is a single entry visa and valid for a total period of 180 days. Your stay duration cannot exceed 30 days from your day of arrival in Turkey. If you do wish to stay for a longer duration, you must apply to your local Police Station for a residency permit. You can apply for an e-Visa 48 hours prior to your departure.
Those Indians who do not have the above Visa or residence permit have to apply for a sticker visa. It takes about 3 working days to process your Turkey Visa after applying for the same at the Embassy.
