Türkiye has introduced visa exemptions for Syrian citizens holding diplomatic passports. The exemption also covers tourist stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period and transit through Türkiye.
According to the source, the change applies to a narrow category of Syrian citizens holding diplomatic passports, as well as related tourist and transit travel. It does not broaden general entry access for ordinary travelers or most people relocating to Türkiye. Its practical significance is mainly for diplomatic travel, short visits and transit. It is relevant primarily to people who fall within the specified category or are arranging travel connected with it.
