Wheelchair accessible entry

Accessible entryStep-free access at street level, so wheelchair and mobility-aid users can come in easily.

Tourist visa

Four more things to prepare.

These sit on top of the four core documents above.

1

Employment letter — original

From your U.S. employer on company letterhead, confirming that you are currently employed, that you have been approved for vacation time covering your travel dates, and that you will return to your position in the United States after your trip.

2

Bank statement

A copy of your most recent bank statement showing sufficient funds to cover your stay. No minimum balance is specified, but the statement should reflect reasonable financial stability relative to your trip duration.

3

Flight itinerary

Include a copy if you have a confirmed booking. Not required if your travel dates are still being finalized.

4

Traveling with a minor under 18?

Bring the child's birth certificate, copies of both parents' passports or driver's licenses, and a notarized parental consent letter if one parent is not traveling.

Single or multiple entry

Choosing your entry type.

Both run 3 months. The difference is how many times you can enter Turkey within that window.

Which one your trip needs

  • Single entry, $60. One entry into Turkey, valid 3 months from issue. Right for a straightforward round trip.
  • Multiple entry, $200. Unlimited entries within the same 3-month validity.
  • Crossing a border mid-trip? An itinerary that goes into Greece, Bulgaria, or another neighboring country and returns to Turkey needs the multiple-entry visa.
  • Not sure? Call Sameday Passport & Visa at (310) 402-1619 with your itinerary and the right type is confirmed before you apply.

Service Order Form

Where Turkey applications go wrong

  • A generic employment letter. Omitting the approved vacation dates or the confirmation that you return to your position is a common reason for delay or rejection.
  • A photocopied letter. The employment letter must be an original on company letterhead.
  • No bank statement. The consulate requires a copy of your most recent statement as evidence of funds.
  • Checked at the counter. Letter, statement, photo and application are reviewed together before anything is filed.

Good to know

Common questions about Turkey visa applications

What must the Turkey visa employment letter include?
The Turkey visa requires an original employment letter from your U.S. employer on company letterhead. It must confirm that you are currently employed, that you have been approved for vacation time covering your travel dates, and that you will return to your position in the United States after your trip. A generic letter that omits these specific points is a common reason for delay or rejection. We review your employment letter at our counter before submission.
What is the difference between the Turkey single-entry and multiple-entry tourist visa?
Both are valid for 3 months. The single-entry visa costs $60 and allows one entry into Turkey. The multiple-entry visa costs $200 and allows unlimited entries within the 3-month validity. If your itinerary includes crossing into Greece, Bulgaria, or another neighboring country and returning to Turkey, you need the multiple-entry visa. Call us at (310) 402-1619 and we will confirm which type fits your trip.
Do I need a bank statement to apply for a Turkey visa?
Yes. The Turkish consulate requires a copy of your most recent bank statement as evidence of sufficient funds to cover your stay. The statement does not need to show a specific minimum balance, but it should reflect reasonable financial stability relative to your travel duration. We review your bank statement at our counter before submission to confirm it meets current consulate expectations.
Do I need a flight itinerary to apply for a Turkey visa?
No. A confirmed flight itinerary is helpful but not required for the Turkey visa. If you have a booking, include a copy — it supports your application. If your travel dates are not yet finalized, you can still proceed with the rest of your documents. We review your full package at our counter before anything is submitted.
Can I apply for a Turkey visa by mail from outside Los Angeles?
Yes. Mail us your passport, completed and signed Turkey visa application, employment letter, bank statement, 2x2 visa photo, a copy of your photo ID, and a completed Service Order Form. We verify everything, handle the consulate submission, and return your passport via FedEx. Call us at (310) 402-1619 before mailing to confirm the current turnaround time and exact package required.
Passport not ready for the trip?

A Turkey visa is issued against the passport you hold now. If yours expires within six months of departure or has no blank page, Sameday Passport & Visa can renew it first and then file the visa against the new book.
