Digital Nomad Visa

Turkey launched its official Digital Nomad Visa in April 2024, allowing remote workers and freelancers to live and work in Turkey for up to one year with the option to renew. Applicants must demonstrate a minimum monthly income of $3,000 ($36,000 annually) from non-Turkish sources. Age requirement is 21-55 years old. Applicants must hold a higher education diploma and provide an employment contract from a non-Turkish company. Available to citizens of 35+ countries including the US, UK, EU member states, Canada, Australia, and others. Two-step process: first obtain a Digital Nomad Identification Certificate (free) through the official GoTürkiye portal, then apply for the visa at a Turkish embassy or convert to a residence permit if already in Turkey.
