Popular Post theoldgit Posted May 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2023 Providing you’re staying in the transit area for the whole ten hours then no visa is required. https://www.mfa.gov.tr/frequently-asked-questions.en.mfa 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjinchiangrai Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I did this two months ago, no need for a transit visa. You should consider a stop in Istanbul, it is a cool city. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
