Turkey

Traveling from Kenya to Türkiye requires careful planning, as immigration authorities enforce two entirely separate application pathways based on your travel history. For first-time travelers or those without external visas, a physical sticker visa is mandatory. Applications are no longer submitted directly at the embassy or online; instead, all documentation and fingerprinting are handled in person at the dedicated Turkish Visa Application Center located at Two Rivers Mall in Nairobi. At Royal Concept Travel, we ensure your physical file is perfectly organized to pass consular scrutiny on the first attempt.

Essential Document Checklist for Sticker Visas

To lodge a valid application at the physical center, you must compile a typed, officially stamped dossier including:

• Original Passport: Must possess a minimum validity of 6 months upon your arrival in Türkiye and contain at least 2 entirely blank pages.

• Biometric Photos: Two identical, unshadowed biometric color photographs measuring strictly 2.5 inches × 2.5 inches (63 mm × 63 mm) against a plain white background, taken within the last 6 months.

• Employment & Financial Verification: A typed, signed, and stamped employer leave letter on official company letterhead detailing your position, salary, and approved travel dates, accompanied by your 3 most recent salary slips. This must be paired with up-to-date, original bank-attested personal bank statements covering the last 6 months showing substantial funds.

• Travel and Civil Proofs: Confirmed round-trip flight reservations, verified hotel bookings displaying your name and check-in/out dates, and proof of civil status (such as a Marriage Certificate). Minors require a specialized lawyer-drafted parental consent affidavit bearing a red seal.
