ATM fees in Turkey

ATM fees in Turkey - Aerial View of City Buildings Near Body of Water

I have a debit card (mastercard from Sydbank, Denmark). I'm gonna use it to withdraw money from ATMs in Turkey. I asked my bank but they said it's up to whichever Turkish ATM (its bank) I use. Any estimations as to how much in fees I'll be paying?



Best Answer

Although not unheard of, it is quite uncommon that ATM operators charge you for using foreign credit or debit cards and after using several different ATMs in Turkey, I've never experienced that Turkish ATM operators do so.

Your bank however (Sydbank) charge 2% of the amount, minimum 50 DKK for cash withdrawals abroad. I don't understand why your bank couldn't (or wouldn't) provide you with that information, but you could easily have found it in Sydbank's list of charges. In addition to the withdrawal fee, some banks use poor exchange rates when converting the foreign currency, causing you in reality to be charged with an additional hidden fee. I cannot tell however if that's the policy of your bank.
