Getting to Istanbul

There are no international flights from Sukhum and no ferry to Trabzon. The route goes through the Psou crossing and Sochi (Adler) airport. Russian airlines fly from Sochi to Istanbul in about 2 hours.

In 2026 Sochi airport often operates with temporary restrictions. Allow spare time and check your flight the day before.

Entering Türkiye

Türkiye does not accept Abkhaz passports. Residents of Abkhazia with Russian citizenship travel on a Russian international passport and follow the rules for Russian citizens: visa-free for up to 60 days, passport valid for at least 120 more days. If your passport was issued in Abkhazia, check in advance whether this may raise questions at the border.

Cards issued by Russian banks do not work in Türkiye. Ask the clinic about payment options in advance.

  • Time for the Psou crossing and the drive to Sochi airport
  • How to pay for treatment
  • A written plan, quote and dates from the clinic — before you book
