Do Mexico passport holders need a visa to visit Türkiye?

Mexican ordinary passport holders need a Türkiye e-Visa before travel — a quick online application (single entry, up to 30 days). Holders of a Mexican ordinary passport are NOT visa-exempt for Türkiye. They must obtain an electronic visa (e-Visa) before traveling, applied for online at the official portal www.evisa.gov.tr. The e-Visa is issued for a single entry, permits a stay of up to 30 days, and is valid for 180 days from the date of issue (you must enter within that window). The standard fee for Mexican citizens is USD 50, paid by card at the time of application; approval is usually granted within minutes. Your passport must be valid for at least 60 days beyond the intended duration of stay (many advise 6 months validity to be safe) and have at least one blank page. The e-Visa covers tourism and business only — not work or study. Only diplomatic Mexican passport holders are visa-exempt (up to 90 days); ordinary passport holders are not. Always apply through the official government site to avoid third-party markups.
