Türkiye to Pakistan visa requirements

Turkish ordinary passport holders need a visa for Pakistan, but can apply online for a tourist eVisa through Pakistan's official NADRA portal (visa.nadra.gov.pk). Since 14 August 2024 Turkey is among the 126 countries that receive the eVisa free of charge, with a 90-day stay typically issued within 24-48 hours. Pakistan does not grant unconditional visa-free entry to Turkish ordinary passport holders, but it offers a fully online tourist eVisa that is the standard and recommended route. Applications are made through the Government of Pakistan's NADRA Online Visa System at visa.nadra.gov.pk. Under the visa reform that took effect on 14 August 2024, Turkey is one of 126 countries whose nationals receive the tourist/visit eVisa fee-free; the system issues a 90-day visa, usually within 24-48 hours, under the "Visa Prior to Arrival" track. A separate 30-day multiple-entry visa-on-arrival exists for Turkish nationals, but only for those who already hold a valid Schengen, UK or US visa, so it is not a dependable primary channel. For ordinary tourism the online eVisa is the correct, conservative choice. Travelers should apply only through the official NADRA site and avoid third-party agent sites that charge markups. A passport valid for at least six months, a passport photo, proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host invitation) and a return ticket support the application. Note that overland and certain regional travel inside Pakistan can require additional permits, and conditions can change, so verify on the official portal before booking.
