| No, you only buy the Turkish Visa stamps if you enter Turkey through passport control. No visa requried for transit via Turkey. |

| It was a £10 when I stopped off in April and I was shocked as last time I was there it was only £5! 100% rise, then a 50% one. Off-putting. |

| No just the facts mam just the facts(Dragnet) Probably the EUFA final prompted a profit opportunity cynical about tax collectors yes ! Just look at the Fyfer GB over the last 10 years the devil is in the detail . The cost of a visa for Polish people to visit the USA is ridiculous.No cost for UK residents I saw on a previous post where kiwi's do not get visa charges to Turkey The UK denied a Turkish friend a visa in December to visit the UK for a holiday Denied him the chance of proper Beer and seeing Wanderer win My MP is Jewish and married to a Turkish lady My Doctor in the UK is Turkish Borders should be free for all people to visit and enjoy each others cultures without hate or fear We should all Live long and prosper i |

| if you're bothered by the £10 or £15 visa fee per person,you could us a TRNC id card on entry to Turkey. No visa fee for TRNC id. Unsure how to obtain a TRNC id card though, or what the eligibility is, or how much it costs (either in money or agro!) |

| I am going to Turkey next Monday expecting to pay £10 as usual. Hope the rate is going to stay high as at present and get good value for money, going to Yalikavak a beautiful spot on the Bodrum peninsular. |

| Msg 21 If you are travelling on a UK passport the 90 day Visa should be charged at £10.00 per passport. That is what we were charged in Istanbul last week. Tom http://www.flightholiday.co.uk |
