ISLAMABAD: Turkey has introduced a convenient e-Visa service, enabling tourists and business travelers to acquire their visas without the need to visit Turkish embassies or consulates.
This service is accessible to individuals holding regular passports and possessing valid Schengen, USA, UK, Ireland visas, or residence permits.
The process to apply for a Turkish visit visa for Pakistani applicants involves three simple steps:
- Application: Visit the official website at https://www.evisa.gov.tr/en/ to start the application process.
- Payment: After entering the necessary details, applicants can make the required payments using credit or debit cards (Mastercard, Visa, or UnionPay).
- Download: Once the application is successfully completed, the applicant will receive a link to download their e-Visa. This link will also be sent to their email for convenience. It’s advisable to keep a copy of the e-Visa, either in electronic format on a device like a tablet or smartphone, or as a hard copy, in case there are any issues with the system at the entry points
The visit visa fee for Pakistani nationals is set at $60, making it an affordable option to explore Turkey’s unique beauty and culture.
Additionally, applicants must meet specific financial requirements, which include providing evidence of a return ticket and a hotel reservation. Official guidelines stipulate that a tourist should have a minimum of $50 for each day of their stay in Turkey.
Therefore, a Pakistani tourist planning to spend 30 days in Turkey must demonstrate a bank statement with a balance of at least $1,500 to meet this requirement.
