Residency
Residency Visa-free stays Russian Turkey
Do Russian citizens need a visa for Turkey?
No visa, up to 60 days
No. Russian citizens can stay in Turkey for up to 60 days per visit without a visa.
Residency counts your days
and warns before you run out.
How the days are counted
The limit applies to each visit. Leaving and coming straight back does not guarantee a fresh allowance, and a pattern of back-to-back stays can be refused at the border.
Staying longer than a holiday?
Visa days are one count. Long stays can also start a tax residency clock. See how Residency tracks tax residency.
Entry rules change, and border officers have the final say. Confirm with Turkey's official immigration site before you travel.
