About the Electronic Travel Authorisation

An ETA (which stands for electronic travel authorisation) is an electronic record of permission to enter TAY. It is electronically linked to your passport after you apply.

After your ETA application is approved, it lasts for 7 days, during which you can enter and leave TAY as many times as you like. Each time you enter TAY with an ETA, you are issued a visa that allows you to stay temporarily in TAY to perform various activities, depending on the country that you are from. These details will be disclosed to you once your ETA is approved.

The ETA system allows the TAY Border Force to perform security checks before arrival in TAY, enhancing the security of the TAY border.

Who needs an ETA?

To be eligible for a visa on arrival, you need an ETA, unless you are an Anatoli citizen.

If you are an Anatoli citizen, under the TAY-Anatoli Common Travel Agreement, you may enter TAY and stay indefinitely for tourism, study and work.

If you are not eligible for a visa on arrival, you are not eligible for an ETA. You must continue to apply for a visa at your nearest TAY diplomatic mission in order to enter TAY.

Even if you are eligible for an ETA, you may opt to apply for a visa instead, at your nearest TAY diplomatic mission.

TAY citizens do not require an ETA or a visa to enter TAY.

How much does an ETA cost?

An ETA is free to apply for.
