Visa & Entry

German passport holders enter Turkey visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from entry. No eVisa, no fee, no advance registration needed. You get stamped in at the border and that is it.

The 90-in-180 rule is strictly enforced. Turkey counts all entries cumulatively. If you spend 90 days and leave, you must stay out for 90 days before returning. Overstaying results in a fine and potential entry ban. For longer stays, apply for a residence permit within the first 90 days through the e-ikamet system at e-ikamet.goc.gov.tr.

Verify entry requirements with official sources before travel.
