Turkey Visit Visa from Pakistan

Turkey is the highest-volume leisure destination for Pakistani travellers that still requires a full sticker visa, so appointment demand is heavy year-round.

Holders of a valid Schengen, UK or US visa are treated differently from first-time applicants, and the file is read more leniently.

Refusals are frequently issued without a detailed reason, which makes the strength of the initial file more important than any appeal route.

How we handle your Turkey application

1. Tell us the trip. Dates, travellers and purpose, on the web or on WhatsApp in Urdu or English.
2. Upload your documents. We read your passport automatically and tell you what is missing.
3. File prepared. Forms completed, cover letter and day-by-day itinerary drafted, documents ordered the way Anatolia Visa Application Centre expects them.
4. Case officer review. Every field and every document, checked before anything is submitted.
5. Appointment tracked. We watch Anatolia Visa Application Centre availability and message you the moment a date opens.

Documents you need

• Valid Pakistani passport with at least 6 months validity
• Two recent passport photographs
• Confirmed return flight reservation
• Hotel booking for the full stay
• Bank statement for the last 6 months, stamped by the branch
• Employment NOC or business registration
• Copy of CNIC, front and back

What it costs

• VisaDIY service fee: PKR 20,000. Application completed, documents checked, cover letter and itinerary drafted, appointment tracked, WhatsApp updates.
• Government fee: $60 (about PKR 16,700). $60, converted at the consular rate on the day you pay. Reduced fee for children.

Total via VisaDIY: PKR 36,700 per applicant. We do not mark up government or centre charges.

How long it takes

Decisions typically take 10 to 15 working days, stretching to up to 30 days in peak season. That clock starts at your appointment, not when you decide to apply, so the queue is usually the longer half of the timeline. Start 5 to 6 weeks before you intend to travel.

Why Turkey applications get refused

• First application with no travel history. The most common refusal profile. Build history with an easier destination first if you can.
• Weak financial evidence. A six-month statement that shows the balance arriving rather than being held.
• Group applications that look organised. Several unrelated applicants with near-identical files submitted together.
• Return intent not demonstrated. No employment evidence, no property, no dependants.
