If you have been vaccinated against COVID-19, you do not need to submit a negative test certificate when entering Turkey.


According to Turkish Airlines, a Turkish national airline, on the 4th (local time), submitting a vaccination certificate issued by a nationally recognized institution upon entry to Turkey exempts travelers from the obligation to submit a negative COVID-19 test certificate.


Travelers entering Turkey who have been vaccinated at least 14 days prior or have recovered from COVID-19 within the last 6 months with a certificate from an authorized institution do not need to undergo a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test to confirm COVID-19 infection.


However, travelers arriving from the United Kingdom, Iran, Egypt, and Singapore must submit a negative test certificate.


Additionally, those who have visited Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Brazil, South Africa, India, Nepal, Pakistan, or Sri Lanka within the last 14 days must also submit a negative test certificate.



For Koreans, if vaccinated, the obligation to submit a negative test certificate upon entry to Turkey is waived; however, unvaccinated individuals must carry a negative test certificate.
