For EU citizens travelling to or living in Turkiye
Consular protection for EU citizens in Turkiye
You are an EU citizen in Türkiye?
Learn more about your right to consular protection and how you can benefit from it in Türkiye.
Consular protection is the help an EU Member State can provide to its citizens in case they need assistance abroad. Typically, consular protection can include cases such as:
- A need for emergency travel documents;
- A serious accident or serious illness;
- Relief and repatriation in case of an emergency;
- Being a victim of crime;
- Arrest or detention;
- Death.
In Türkiye, twenty-six EU Member States have a resident Embassy and several Consulates, while one (Cyprus) does not.
You are an EU citizen in need of consular protection in Türkiye?
- You can contact your resident Embassy or Consulate, able to provide consular protection.
- If your EU Member States has no resident Embassy/Consulate in Türkiye, you can turn to another EU Member State for consular protection.
Indeed, any EU citizen abroad whose own Member State has no local representation is entitled to receive consular protection from the diplomatic or consular authorities of any other EU Member State. In that case, EU citizens are entitled to benefit from consular protection under the same conditions as the nationals of that other EU Member State.
You can find contact details of the resident EU Member States Embassies and Consulates who can provide consular protection in Türkiye in the list below.
Please note that the EU Delegation Türkiye cannot provide direct consular assistance.
As an EU citizen, you can take simple steps to make consular protection more effective, for example:
- Follow the travel advice issued by your country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
- When abroad, register with your Embassy or Consulate and/or through dedicated platforms (please consult the website of your respective Embassy/Consulate).
- Other tips include keeping an electronic copy of your travel documents, subscribing to a travel insurance or saving crisis contact details.
For more information on consular protection, see the dedicated pages on the websites of the European External Action Service, the European Commission and the Council of the EU.
