Traveling to Istanbul, Turkey

Sourced Full Turkey guide →

Visa, arrival and money basics for planning the trip.

Visa
Turkey's e-Visa / visa-on-arrival system (evisa.gov.tr) is valid ONLY for tourism or commerce; work, study and other purposes require a visa issued by a Turkish embassy or consulate. Confirm your nationality's current rule before travelling.
Medical / long-stay visa
There is no separate medical/health-tourism visa — international patients enter on the standard e-Visa or visa-free tourist route like any other visitor. The health-tourism-specific control sits on the FACILITY side instead: treating providers must hold the Ministry of Health's 'Uluslararası Sağlık Turizmi Yetki Belgesi' authorization.
Safety & recourse
Generally safe · Limited recourse — use a medical-travel insurer

General guidance — confirm current rules for your nationality with official sources. Verified against: Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs — Visa information for foreigners.
