Dental treatment in Istanbul for patients from the EU
Travelling to Istanbul is simple for EU citizens: no visa is needed, and citizens of 14 countries can enter with a national ID card.
Getting to Istanbul
Turkish Airlines, Pegasus and AJet fly to Istanbul from most major EU cities. From Germany, for example, Turkish Airlines flies to Istanbul Airport (IST) from 11 cities in 2 h 40 min to 3 h 30 min. Check the schedule from your city with the airline.
The clinic is on the European side of Istanbul, so IST is more convenient; the transfer from Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) takes longer.
Entering Türkiye
Citizens of all EU countries except the Republic of Cyprus enter Türkiye visa-free for up to 90 days. A passport must be valid for at least 150 days from entry.
Citizens of Germany, Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Portugal, Greece, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania can enter with a national ID card. Cypriot citizens need a visa or e-Visa.
