Overview
Turkey offers an e-Visa for eligible Indian passport holders — those who hold a valid UK, US, or Schengen visa or residence permit, or who are travelling as part of an organised tour group. The e-Visa allows stays of up to 30 days and is issued electronically through the official Turkey e-Visa portal, typically within 24 hours. Indian applicants who do not meet the e-Visa eligibility conditions must apply for a sticker visa at the Turkish embassy or consulate.

Gaya · Bodhgaya · Patna · Varanasi application path
Because the Turkey e-Visa is fully online, applicants in Gaya and Bodhgaya do not need to travel to an embassy. The concierge collects documents by WhatsApp or courier, files on the Turkey e-Visa portal, and delivers the e-Visa by email — provided the applicant meets the eligibility conditions. Applicants who do not meet the e-Visa conditions are routed to the sticker visa process, which requires an embassy visit in New Delhi or Mumbai.
Pan-India note: The e-Visa route is uniform across India for eligible applicants. Concierge support and document collection by courier/WhatsApp are available nationwide; no in-person visit is required for the e-Visa. The sticker visa route (for ineligible applicants) requires an embassy visit in New Delhi or Mumbai.
Local-market adaptation: Turkey is positioned to Bihar-based applicants as a fast e-Visa destination — provided the applicant holds a valid UK, US, or Schengen visa (which many pilgrim families already have). The concierge checks eligibility upfront, then handles the e-Visa portal remotely. Applicants without an eligible visa are routed to the sticker visa process, which the concierge supports with embassy-visit logistics. This framing is distinct from generic pan-India copy.
