Do I pay again

[sue :)]

Hi, not sure if i have read about this on the forum before but wonder if anyone can help me.

I went to Icmeler 21st June (and had a fantastic time ) and am going again 30th August (yahooooo). Do i pay the £10 visa into Turkey again or not.

Hiya

No you shouldnt have to pay again.
It will be valid up to 3months when you went in June,so that will take you up to 21 Sept.
The guys may act dumb,as they did with me but just show them your stamp/sticker from June visit.

Hi Sue, just noticed this thread as my computer has not been working for a couple of days. We had an unfortunate experience a couple of years back when we had been to Icmeler in May then went back in August. We asked when we arrived if we should pay our £10 and was told no as it last for 3 months which we knew but just wanted to double check. Anyway on leaving Dalaman we were stopped to be told our visa had expired 2 days before we were due to leave and ended up after a lot of hassle having to pay them £240 to be able to get home. Also they would not accept a credit card only cash. We were actually treated like criminials so I would strongly recommend you check it does not expire while you are out there.

That must have been awful. It will only be me and my daughter travelling so hope that doesn't happen to me.

We went june 21st and are returning 30th august for 2 weeks leaving turkey on 13th september. It works out at 85 days from our first visit to when we we leave Turkey. Do you think thats ok or should i pay again to be on the safe side.

Yeh I would say that should be okay but it was just incase it expired while you were there as we were not the only ones who this had happened to. The room we were taken to had another couple in it with a little boy and the woman was in tears as they did not have enough cash to pay. I dont know what the final outcome with them was but for the sake of a tenner I will never be caught like that again. If it is only 85 days though you should be fine. Have a great holiday when it comes. Only 6 wks on Friday for us and cant wait!!!

Sue you definately don't need to pay again, if you look at the visa stamp it tells you thats its valid for 90 days so yours will be valid until the 19th sept.

Thanks Davie. Was just bit worried because they stamp your passport on the way out of the country when you go home and didn't know if that made a difference or not. Have never gone back within the 3 month period before.
Thanks again for your help
