Residency Visa-free stays US Turkey
Do US citizens need a visa for Turkey?
No visa, up to 90 days
No. US citizens can stay in Turkey for up to 90 days in any 180-day period without a visa.
How the days are counted
This is a rolling limit: for any date, look back 180 days and count the days you were in Turkey. The total must stay at or under 90. The day you arrive and the day you leave both count.
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.
