Title: Evisa
Post by: charlste on October 03, 2019, 12:29:30 PM: Can you buy an evisa using a credit card?
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: KKOB on October 03, 2019, 12:31:34 PM: Yes. Visa and Mastercard are accepted. Make sure you only use the official government site though. Other sites will cost you more.

Post by: charlste on October 04, 2019, 08:06:33 AM: I am thinking of closing my nationwide account which i normally use to buy the evisa.
I will probably use my halifax clarity or starling card to buy evisa.

Post by: suzyq on October 04, 2019, 17:20:41 PM: I went to Side last month and had lost my visa that I got in May, fortunately if you go on to the website then status it allows you to print off your visa again, just thought it might help others knowing this.

Post by: Karennina on October 14, 2019, 11:43:40 AM: When applying for an Evisa do you still receive a confirmation email please?
I did my husband’s Saturday and no email still so I’m thinking maybe you don’t get one any more?
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: Highlander on October 14, 2019, 12:42:58 PM: Yes with a Approve button which you must respond to within one hour otherwise visa is cancelled.

If not then I don't think you have a visa :(
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: Karennina on October 14, 2019, 17:09:36 PM: I got that email and when I click on it on the green approve bit it says your application was successful and payment is done (words to that effect ) then where it says download your visa it’s all there re the info, it also says a confirmation email has also been sent that is the email I haven’t received...
So I’m none the wiser thank you Highlander for your help :)

In any event you will need a printed copy.

Just to confirm - you are using evisa.gov.tr
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: Karennina on October 14, 2019, 19:24:02 PM: That is what I thought re needing to print a copy of, yes the same site as a Iv always used.
Il have to check my card once that gets charged (hopefully) il be able to relax that it went thru ok!
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: suzyq on October 14, 2019, 19:28:50 PM: Hi Karennina, try going onto evisa web site and status and it will tell you if you have a visa, that’s what I did when I needed to print off another one.

Post by: suzyq on October 15, 2019, 09:41:41 AM: Brilliant, so glad it worked. Hope you feel better now I know I was very stressed when I lost mine, happy holidays.
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: Highlander on October 15, 2019, 10:55:37 AM: Can you explain the process please suzyq - I did try but didn't get very far :(
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: suzyq on October 15, 2019, 11:17:56 AM: At the bottom of the screen on the left hand side it says ongoing application. Click on this and it asks for your email address, passport number and visa reference, if you don’t know the visa reference just leave it blank. It then tells you if you if you have a successful visa application and you can download another copy if needed. Or just type turkish evisa status in search engine and it brings the page up. Hope that is okay
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: Highlander on October 15, 2019, 12:56:37 PM: That's perfect Suzy - never knew that provision existed.

Good to know - many thanks
Title: Re: Evisa
Post by: Karennina on October 15, 2019, 15:57:02 PM: Defo all gone through just checked my bank again many thanks and that is great to know for future Suzyq :)
