Family Reunification Visa in Turkey

• This service is tailored for individuals living abroad who wish to bring their family members to Turkey to live together. 
• It caters to both Turkish citizens and foreign nationals residing in Turkey under various permits, aiming to reunite with their spouses, children, or other family members.

Law No. 6458 - Law on Foreigners and International Protection (YUKK) - specifies the requirements as follows: 

• Applicants must prepare a comprehensive dossier including biometric photographs taken within the last six months, marriage certificates or family books for spouses, and birth certificates or population registration samples for children. 
• Additionally, for foreign spouses residing legally in Turkey, a residence permit document is necessary. In cases of marriage under 18, a court decision and parental consent are required. For previous marriages, divorce decrees or death certificates must be presented.
