Visa information

Student visas for Turkey
Are you from Bangladesh? You might need a student visa...

Don't worry, everything is ok. We're on it, and we're doing all we can to make your search for the right international degree in Turkey a little easier and more enjoyable.

Still, while we’re catching up, you can always beat us to it and:

• Check if you really need a student visa. Since you're from Bangladesh and planning full-time academic study in Turkey, yes, you’ll definitely need a student visa.

• Start exploring the official website of the Turkish Embassy in Dhaka or the Turkish visa office. That’s where all the latest and most reliable information lives. Bookmark it, read it, reread it.

• Check the deadlines. The visa process takes time and missing a step or delaying your application could mean missing your semester start. Not the kind of plot twist you want.

• Go on a paperwork treasure hunt. Passport, university acceptance letter from a recognized Turkish university, completed visa application form, proof of financial support, passport-sized photos, academic documents, language test results if needed—yes, the list is long, and yes, you’ll need every piece.

• Start saving up. You’ll need to show you can financially support yourself while studying in Turkey. That means proving you can cover tuition, living expenses, and maybe even a few Turkish breakfasts and metro rides.

• Enhance your English or Turkish skills depending on your program. Some universities teach in English, others in Turkish. Strong language skills will benefit both your visa process and academic success.

All in all, getting your Turkish student visa might feel like a lot, but it’s a big step toward an even bigger adventure.

Thanks and good luck!
