VISAS.

[fifegirl]

Just thought i would post a topic here for any newbies to Turkey regarding visas, as i have seen many people getting caught out when reaching the passport check in,not knowing that the visa is £10 English money. They will not accept Scottish money, or £20 sterling. I always put a £10 note in the back of my passport when i get one so it is there when i get to the airport. Hope this is helpful. Happy holidays to all travelling this summer.

If anypart of your holiday is outside 90 days, ie. it expires while away, then yes a new visa on arrival is required.

You won't find an English £10 anywhere so you'll have to use £10 sterling (England hasn't got it's own currency, not yet anyway). Sorry if I'm being pedantic but it's something that gets my back up

I am thinking of staying in Icmeler for a few months next year, or possibly longer, perhaps 1 year? Can anyone tell me if I am allowed to stay for 90 days on the tourist visa , leave the country then return again on another 90 day visa? If so how many time can I do this over the year? Or would I have to get a residency permit? Any advice for me?

Far cheaper to get a residency permit than keep leaving, also new Visa system may be in next year where you can only stay 90 days out of 180.

Many thanks Dave
Will try and find some info on residency permit. I don't suppose you know of any reliable estate agents for me to contact about renting an apartment?
