Turkey officially recognizes Tour Operator Representative as a visa purpose under its Other Visas category.
This category is intended for foreign representatives of tour operators travelling to Turkey for temporary tourism-related duties.
Turkey’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that eligible tour-operator representatives may be exempt from obtaining a work permit for duties lasting up to 8 months.
Applicants intending to stay in Turkey as tour-operator representatives must also follow the applicable residence-permit requirements.
The applicant should have a genuine relationship with a tour operator and appropriate supporting documents from the relevant travel/tourism companies.
You may submit your available documents to our Mirpur DOHS, Dhaka Office for visa-processing support.
If you require assistance preparing your application, you may take our Visa Consulting Support.

Turkey’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirms that foreign tour-operator representatives may benefit from the work-permit exemption for assignments not exceeding 8 months.

Who Can Apply for a Turkey Tour Operator Representative Visa?

This visa may be suitable for applicants who are travelling to Turkey temporarily to represent:

Foreign tour operators
Travel agencies
Tourism companies
Holiday companies
Destination-management businesses
Other eligible tourism-sector organizations

The applicant should have a genuine professional role and appropriate evidence showing the relationship between the foreign tour operator and the relevant company or tourism organization in Turkey.

Required Documents to Submit at Our Office

Please prepare the following documents as applicable to your profile:

Valid Passport
Passport Copy
Completed Turkey Visa Application
Recent Biometric Photographs
Employment / Assignment Letter from the Foreign Tour Operator
Contract or Agreement with the Associated Travel Agency in Turkey
Documents of the Turkish Travel Agency / Tourism Company
Evidence of the Applicant’s Employment with the Tour Operator
Applicant’s Position / Job Confirmation
Tourism-Sector Experience Documents, where applicable
Professional Qualification / Training Documents, where relevant
Tour Operator / Travel Agency Licence or Registration Documents, where applicable
Travel Itinerary / Flight Reservation
Hotel Booking / Accommodation Details
Bank Statement / Financial Documents
Travel Medical Insurance
Previous Passport / Visa History, where applicable
Other Supporting Documents according to the applicant’s role and assignment

The above list is general. Exact requirements may vary according to the applicant’s circumstances and the checklist applicable at the time of application.

Tour Operator Assignment Requirement

The applicant should be able to clearly demonstrate that they are travelling to Turkey as an authorized representative of a genuine tour operator.

Supporting documents may include:

Employment confirmation
Assignment letter
Employment contract
Job position and salary information
Professional experience in tourism
Contract with a Turkish travel agency
Company registration documents
Tourism licences
Business relationship evidence

The documents should clearly establish why the applicant needs to remain in Turkey as a tour-operator representative.

Turkish Travel Agency Documents

Depending on the case, supporting documents from the company operating in Turkey may include:

Tourism-operation licence
Company registration
Chamber of Commerce records
Travel-agency registration
Contract with the foreign tour operator
Other tourism-sector authorization documents

Current Turkish consular guidance published for this visa category also commonly requires evidence that the Turkish travel agency is properly licensed and registered.

Work Permit Exemption

This visa category has an important distinction from a normal Turkey Work Visa.

Turkey’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that foreign tour-operator representatives may be exempt from obtaining a work permit for duties lasting up to 8 months.

This exemption:

Applies specifically to eligible tour-operator representative duties
Does not mean the applicant can undertake unrestricted employment in Turkey
Is limited to the applicable exemption period
Does not automatically remove residence-permit requirements

If the applicant needs to work beyond the permitted exemption period, a different work authorization process may become necessary.

Residence Permit Requirement

Turkey’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that foreigners travelling as tour-operator representatives should apply to the relevant Provincial Directorate of Migration Management for the applicable residence permit.

Such applications are processed under rules relating to touristic visits.

Applicants should therefore distinguish between:

Visa: used for entering Turkey for the approved purpose.

Residence Permit: required where applicable for remaining legally in Turkey during the assignment.

Maximum Work-Permit Exemption Period

The official exemption for eligible tour-operator representatives applies where the assignment does not exceed 8 months.

If the applicant is expected to work longer than the permitted exemption period, appropriate work authorization may be required.

Financial Requirement

Applicants should demonstrate sufficient financial means appropriate to their stay in Turkey.

Evidence may include:

Personal bank statements
Salary evidence
Employer financial support
Company sponsorship
Accommodation provided by the employer or associated travel agency
Other genuine proof of financial support

The available funds should reasonably cover:

Accommodation
Daily living expenses
Transportation
Return travel
Other personal expenses

There is no single universal bank-balance amount that automatically guarantees approval.

Travel Medical Insurance

Applicants should hold appropriate medical insurance valid during their stay in Turkey.

The insurance should match the intended duration of the applicant’s assignment and applicable visa requirements.
