It is possible to obtain e-Visa 7/24 at everywhere with internet connection. The applicants can obtain their visa after they fill in the necessary information concerning their identity, passport and travel dates and pay visa fee online.

• Please note that e-visa is only valid when the purpose of travel is tourism or commerce. For other purposes, such as work and study, visas are given by Turkish Embassies or Consulates.
• The term "official passports" covers diplomatic, service, special and official passports.

You are kindly advised to have a travel document/passport valid for at least 6 months as from the date of your arrival in Türkiye.

Turkey Tourist Visa Application Process in Dubai

If you’re planning on making a trip from Dubai to Turkey for a holiday, you may need to apply for a visa beforehand depending on your nationality. This post will guide you how to get a Turkey tourist visa from Dubai VFS Global office in WAFI Mall.

Direct flights from Dubai to Istanbul can be taken via Emirates , Turkish Airlines, flydubai, and Pegasus and flying time runs about 5 hours . Some of the famous attractions in Turkey include Hagia Sophia museum in Instanbul, Pamukkale thermal spa terraces, and hot air balloon in Cappadocia. Given that this is only a short distance away from the UAE, this is a great destination for a short break from Dubai.

There are two options that can be taken when applying for a Visa to Turkey, the e-appointment via VFS Global  and acquiring an e-Visa . Read further to see a guideline that can help you apply for either of the two choices.

How to Apply for a Turkey Tourist Visa in Dubai – Step by Step Guide

E-appointment system via vfs global, applying for an e-visa for turkey, contact information, location map: consulate-general of turkey.

The e-appointment system requires you to schedule an appointment at the Consulate General office of Turkey located in the Dubai World Trade Centre   VFS Global office at WAFI Mall .

The other option (which is much easier) is getting the eVisa and basically just print it after making the payment and getting approved. This option is only available to those who have certain types of visas already. Below are each step outline according to process.

UPDATE: There has been an update regarding the visa application process as the Consulate General of Turkey has assigned a third party service (VFS Global) to handle all visa applications to the country.

So you need to schedule and make an appointment at VFS Global instead of going directly to the Consulate.

If your UAE visa is based in Dubai, Ajman, Sharjah, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, or Umm Al Quwain, then you need to apply at the VFS Global Dubai. If your UAE visa is based in Al Ain or Abu Dhabi, then you need to apply at the VFS Global Abu Dhabi. Here are the steps:

1. Apply through their e-appointment system via this link and fill out the online form with your details. – https://www.konsolosluk.gov.tr/Visa

2. Once approved, schedule an interview appointment. Book an appointment schedule here –  http://www.vfsglobal.com/Turkey/UAE/schedule-an-appointment.html

Make sure to bring all the needed documents when you visit the VFS Global office. The following are the requirements for applying for a Turkey tourist visa.

– Biometric Photo – Salary Certificate – documents attesting to the income status of the applicant and inviting person – Flight Reservation – Hotel Booking or Invitation – NOC Letter – Supporting document on the applicant’s commitment to return such as (Land registry, business certificate, salary table, bank account statement) – Bank statement for last three months – Medical Insurance valid for Turkey – Original Passport and Passport copy

6. Lastly, claim your Visa as per according to the date indicated on the stamp.

– Have a 1-year medical insurance ready for your trip. In my case I applied for the medical insurance at VFS GLobal office as they have a dedicated insurance provider in their office. – Allot at least a month before your flight when you apply for your Visa – It’s also important to remember that it takes 4-7 working days before your Visa is released. – In case of unemployment, send your benefactor’s passport – If you have a host in Turkey, must provide some information regarding your Turkish host, who will also need to have an approval coming from the benefactor that they’ll answer all of the tourist’s expenses. – Visa Fee: The Visa can be around 220-330 AED , Credit cards are strictly not accepted, all fees must be paid in UAE Dirhams. However, total fees may reach as much as 700 AED (due to the medical insurance).

Depending on the country of your passport, you may have an option of applying an E-Visa, and the process takes shorter than the traditional option of acquiring through an appointment.

1. To apply, you can click this link – https://www.evisa.gov.tr/en/apply/ . You will be redirected towards the website. Accomplish the application filling up the required information.

2. Make the payment (current Turkey eVisa fee is 20 USD) online.

How to Apply for a Turkey visa from Dubai?

Choosing Between a Tourist or Transit Visa

When applying for your Turkish visa in Dubai, you’ll need to decide whether you need a tourist or transit visa. Tourist visas allow you to explore Turkey, while transit visas are solely for passing through on your way to another destination. Here will Dubai will give a complete breakdown article 

Some key differences:

• Tourist visas allow stays of up to 90 days within 180 days. Transit is limited to just 5 days.
• Tourist visas allow entry via any border gate. Transit restricts you to arriving at approved airports/seaports.
• Tourist visas give you full access to travel within Turkey. Transit limits your movements to connecting transportation.

Agency processing fees are generally $15-30 on top of the visa cost. This grants access to premium services that save applicants time, energy, and hassle while ensuring smooth entry into Turkey.

Check out the step-by-step guide on how to apply for a Turkey visa

Check out list of top travel agencies in dubai.

So for most visitors planning to see Turkey’s attractions, a 30 or 90-day tourist e-visa is likely the best fit. Those with short layovers can save costs with a transit visa instead.

Saving Time Through an Agency

While the government e-visa platform allows DIY applications, working with a specialized agency like CIBTvisas or Compass can optimize efficiency.

Benefits include:

• Expert guidance on selecting the right visa type
• Agency staff fill out forms, check documents, and submit applications on your behalf
• Concierge services deliver visas right to your home or office
• Packaged deals can bundle visas with flights, hotels, airport transfers

Securing Supporting Documentation

Whether applying directly or through an agency, the required supporting documents are the same. Banks statements, flight/accommodation bookings, and UAE residency papers must be legally certified through established channels like your bank, airline, or local police station.

Photographs also have strict official formatting – professional visa photos with white backgrounds are recommended. Agencies will inform exactly which documents need certification/notarization during the process.

How to Apply for a Turkey Visa from Dubai

Step-by-step guide, step 1: gather documents.

You will need to have the following documents ready before applying:

• Passport valid for at least 60 days beyond the trip date
• 2 passport-size photos with a white background
• Proof of sufficient funds for the trip (bank statements, income statements, etc.)
• Confirmed roundtrip tickets and detailed travel itinerary
• Proof of accommodation booking in Turkey
• UAE residency visa and Emirates ID copy

Step 2: Choose Visa Type

Turkey offers e-visas, sticker visas, and on-arrival visas depending on your nationality and trip purpose. Choose the right category based on immigration guidelines. Popular options are 30 or 90-day multiple-entry e-visas.

Step 3: Submit Visa Application

You can opt for the following application methods:

• Apply directly through the Turkish government’s online e-visa system.
• Visit the Turkey visa application center in Dubai in person.
• Work with a registered Dubai-based visa processing agency.

Online applications tend to be cheaper while agencies charge service fees but handle all procedures.

Step 4: Pay Visa Fees

Visa cost will depend on your nationality, but is commonly between $30-60 paid online via credit card. Payment confirms the visa.

Step 5: Print Visa

For e-visas, print multiple copies to carry while traveling. For sticker visas, the agency will inform you of the next steps.

Top Dubai Travel Agencies for Turkey Visas:

1. cibtvisas, 2. compass middle east visas, 3. enhance visas, 4. sherazade travel tourism.
