visa stamp on entry

[charlste]

I am using my full 90days this year and just wondered if when i arrive at dalaman at 12.10am they will have remembered to have changed their date stamp.
Does the little machine they put your passport under register the day and time of arrival.
If say they forget i will finish up staying 91 days.
you never know with the turks.

If you're planning to be that tight with the 90days then a Residency Permit may be a better option - assuming they're still dishing them out locally.

It is always a bad idea leaving a country on the last day of a visas validity - weather, strikes or just a very late inbound aircraft can leave you paying a fine, and having all the associated sh1t that goes with that.

The "little machine" doesn't count the days. It scans details of your passport into the national computer. The calculation of the number of days used / remaining is made by the Pasaport Polis officer at the desk. If he has any doubts about his mental arithmetic, he uses a similar website to that which is recommended on here.

As far as remembering to change the date stamp.................Do ya feel lucky ? Well, do ya punk?
