Last year when I went to Turkia, we got a visa at the airport in exchange for a crisp £10 note......However, I have just been looking on this site:
http://www.tourismturkey.org/visa.htm
and it says all non-US citizens need to apply for a visa BEFORE entering Turkia.......
Can someone please tell me this is wrong!!!

Also, it is less than 12 months since I last visited Turkia - will I have to pay £10 again this year?

hi well i was there at start of summer and no i didnt need to get visa before i went and yes you have to get a new visa even though you are travelling back within 12months, its only if you travel back within 3months then you dont have to buy new one

You don't need to apply for a visa before you go... same aas before... get your visa upon arrival at the airport ... just hand over your crisp £10 note... and the visa is yours

It's incorrect. My mother and sister haven't got a Dutch passport, so they entered Türkiye with their British ones. Because they come from Holland, they didn't have to pay in pounds, but had to pay €15,-.

And this was just a month ago, so I don't think they changed it

You do need to apply for a visa in advance if you're going to stay longer than the 3 months that you get from your multiple entry tourist visa.

Me too, I travelled there just one month ago too.... just handed over £10 for the visa upon entry.... of course you are right about the multiple entry visa... this must be applied for before you go.

Quoting IZMIR060406:

No no, your holiday-visa is a multiple-entry one

If you want that to be longer than 3 months, than you must apply in advance.

Sometimes, do you ever wish you never got involved in a conversation ?

I'm starting to confuse myself now .... OK Pay £10 upon entry for your holiday (short stay) visa for a stay of 3 months or less. If you stay any longer than 3 months Bod, thats when you have to apply for your visa before you go
