South African Travelling to Turkey

Question

Hi, I'm a South African in the UK on a holiday visa. Do i need to apply for a visa to go to Turkey on holiday? Or can i just get a visa when i enter Turkey?

Answer 1

South Africa: Ordinary passport holders are required to have visa to enter Turkey. They can obtain one month multiple entry visas at the Turkish border gates. Official passport holders are exempt from visa for their travels up to 30 days.

Visa fee for South African citizens: 15 $ (10 Euros)

Answer 2

Ordinary passport holders are required to have visa to enter Turkey. Official passport holders are exempt from visa for their travels up to 30 days. You need to go to the embassy, high commissioner, consulate or delegation of that country which you are going to visit. Be informed about what you need to carry to the consulate – photos, letters of recommendations, air tickets and other documents. You may also need to show lots of money in your accounts. Actually different embassies for the same country behave differently and thus while some require lots of documents others ask for nothing. Therefore it’s best to be on the safer side and carry everything. Visa application hours are only a few hours in the morning and hence it is better to get there early to avoid the hassle of standing in a long queue. It normally takes one to three days to get the visa during which the passport generally stays with the embassy. For contingency, it’s better to ask for a receipt of the passport from the consulate authority.
