TURKISH CYPRIOT MEDIA - WHAT CHANGES IN THE ENTRY OF CITIZENS OF THE REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS INTO TURKEY FROM 2 JANUARY 2026

Filenews 27 December 2025



From January 2, 2026, the entry regulations into Turkey change and the visa with a sticker at the points of entry into the country for people with passports of the Republic of Cyprus is abolished and the visa should be secured either electronically before the traveller goes to Turkey or from Turkish diplomatic missions abroad.

According to the Cyprus Post website, this change does not concern the "citizens" of the "TRNC", as referred to in the pseudo-state, who will continue to enter Turkey without a visa under the current system.
