Do Egyptian passport holders need a visa for Türkiye?

Yes. Egyptian passport holders need a visa to visit Türkiye for tourism. This exemption is conditional. Ordinary passport holders under 15 or over 45 may get the e-visa with no further condition. Those aged 15 to 45 must hold a valid visa or residence permit from a Schengen state, the United States, the United Kingdom or Ireland, and must fly to Türkiye with Turkish Airlines, AJet, Pegasus, Egypt Air or Air Cairo. For the 15 to 45 band the e-visa is a 30-day single-entry visa from www.evisa.gov.tr, for tourism or commerce only. Anyone who meets neither branch needs a visa from a Turkish mission.
