As of June 12th, are there any restrictions on who can enter Turkey or who has to undergo a 14-day quarantine? - Blue emblem sticker of World Health Organization on carton boxes heaped on table

According to IATA:

  1. Coronavirus (COVID-19) entry regulations lifted on 12 June 2020.
  2. Passengers and airline crew are subject to medical screening.

Does this mean that anyone (with a visa or visa-free passport) can now enter Turkey and not undergo a quarantine?



Best Answer

TL;DR Turkey is opening borders but travellers must have a HES code

This is newly the case.

(Information retrieved from the US embassy in Turkey as it was updated recently and in English).

On June 11, Turkey announced opening the majority of its international air, land, and sea borders. The border with Iran remains closed.

Flights are starting to resume to Turkey. To enter Turkey all travelers must have a HES code (Hayat Eve S??ar) for domestic and international flights, train and ferry travel. This can be obtained here.
