Stuck outside Turkey due to an entry ban (giriş yasağı)? Our experienced entry ban lawyers provide immediate 24/7 legal assistance to help you regain access to Turkey through administrative appeals or court action.
An entry ban (giriş yasağı) is an administrative decision by Turkish immigration authorities that prevents foreign nationals from entering Turkey for a specified period. Understanding these restrictions is the first step toward removal.
Entry bans in Turkey can result from various immigration violations, criminal records, or administrative decisions. Our entry ban lawyers in Istanbul help clients understand the specific reason affecting their travel.
Remaining in Turkey beyond the permitted visa or residence permit period can result in automatic entry bans of 1-5 years.
Foreigners subject to deportation under Law No. 6458 often face additional entry bans of 2-10 years or permanent restrictions.
Working without authorization, studying without proper permits, or other visa condition violations can trigger entry restrictions.
Criminal convictions, even for minor offenses in other countries, may result in Turkish entry bans based on security assessments.
Involuntary overstays due to medical emergencies, document loss, or airline errors may still result in bans requiring legal intervention.
Turkey's entry-exit system uses specific codes to record immigration restrictions. Understanding these codes is essential for proper legal strategy and removal procedures.
1, 2, 5, or 10-year bans depending on violation severity

Automatically applied following deportation decisions
System flags requiring manual review before entry clearance
