Check before you travel
- e-Visa fees per nationality not confirmed: evisa.gov.tr could not be read (browser permission not granted for that site) and the MFA fee PDF linked from the page dates from 2014.
- The e-Visa eligibility list is taken from the MFA country table; the live eligibility list on evisa.gov.tr was not checked and may differ (e.g. some African nationalities with a Schengen/US/UK visa).
- ZA e-visa via dtvgroup.com.tr is as stated by the MFA page; unusual domain, verify before use.
- MFA page has no explicit update date; it mentions changes effective 1 and 2 January 2026, so it was updated in or after late 2025.
