Turkey

Business visit visa / Work visa

Turkey's immigration system provides pathways for business visitors, short-and long-term workers.

Business visitors require entry visas unless they are visa exempt based on their nationality. Some visitors can obtain an eVisa, based on their nationality or immigration status. The allowable duration of stay varies based on the applicant's nationality.

The main work authorization category is the Work Permit, available for both intracompany transfers and local hires, and for both short- and long-term work. A minimum salary requirement and a local worker quota apply. The permit can be issued for up to one year and is renewable.

All foreign nationals must hold a passport valid for at least 60 days beyond their intended stay.
