Title: visa at Dalaman august
Post by: tonysue on August 06, 2012, 12:02:45 PM
In view of littlereddevils experience arriving at Istanbul airport, has anybody arrived at Dalaman on the 90/180 day visa 90days+ after it was issued but still valid ( as we understand it to be)??

My daughter came in about 4 weeks ago for the second time on her 90/180 visa, with no problems. Her husband came in last weel also on his second visit on  a 90/180 visa and he had no problems either...

My wife got a visa in April (5th) and has been back to Turkey on the same visa first week of June and went on 30th July. No problems so far.

I am about to on Wednedsay and am now worried after Littledaredevils experience at Istanbul. I have just counted up and I will be arriving on day 138 on the new 90/180 day visa which i purchased beginning of April, in view of the new rules I should not be needing a new visa as my one is still current. I think I shall make sure I have an English £10 just in case I encounter any problems I will report back if noone does before me.  ;)

I have just used my 90/180 day visa which was purchased at the beginning of April on my arrival to Dalaman 5th August.  I did ask the man who showed passengers to the visa desk if I needed to pay, just to check.  He thought for a moment, working something out in his head reeling the months of the year out, then said no go pay visa.  Having read the link about visa's and using the calculator my visa was in date for use.  So I asked again at the visa desk, stating 90/180 visa.  I was asked how long my stay was, which fell inside the 180th day.  With this, he told me to go to passport control.  My visa from April was stamped, with no further payment.  So it worked for me!

Err no I think if you reread  the post they did not get a new visa and passport control merely stamped the passport with the entry date recognising that the 90/180 day visa was still valid just as they do when you have a Residents Permit.
