Dental treatment in Istanbul for patients from Russia
Russia has direct flights to Istanbul, no visa is required and there is no time difference. Here is what to check before you book.
Getting to Istanbul
Direct flights to Istanbul are operated by Aeroflot, Turkish Airlines, Pegasus, Pobeda and others. From Moscow (Sheremetyevo, Vnukovo) the flight takes about 4 hours. There are also direct flights from St Petersburg, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Sochi, Krasnodar, Mineralnye Vody and other cities.
BM Turkiye is on the European side, in Bahçelievler, so Istanbul Airport (IST) is the more convenient arrival point. If Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side is cheaper, allow more time for the transfer.
Entering Türkiye
Russian citizens do not need a visa for stays of up to 60 days. You need an international passport valid for at least 120 days from the date of entry.
Visa and Mastercard cards issued by Russian banks do not work in Türkiye, and major Turkish banks do not accept Mir cards. Ask the clinic about payment options in advance.
