Türkiye to Tunisia visa requirements

Turkish ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for Tunisia. Under a bilateral visa-exemption agreement, they can enter visa-free and stay up to 90 days for tourism, business, or family visits. Turkey and Tunisia maintain a bilateral visa-waiver agreement, so holders of an ordinary Turkish passport can travel to Tunisia visa-free for short stays of up to 90 days per visit. The exemption covers tourism, business, and family visits. No visa, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival is required for these purposes. Tunisia is in North Africa and is NOT part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply here; Tunisia operates its own independent entry-stamp system. At the border, travelers should present a passport valid for at least 6 months (recommended), a return or onward ticket, and may be asked for proof of accommodation and sufficient funds. The visa-free channel applies only to short non-remunerated visits; anyone intending to work, study, or stay beyond 90 days must obtain the appropriate residence/work authorization in advance. As of 2026-05-30, both the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the published Tunisian visa policy confirm the reciprocal 90-day exemption for ordinary passport holders, so the verdict is visa-free.
