Use this guide if you're searching for Turkey e Visa for Bangladeshi or Turkey e Visa from Bangladesh — step‑by‑step process, eligibility, sticker visa via VAC, checklists, fees, photo specs, and processing time.
Employer-led work permits or job placements. Turkish employers must apply for your work permit to the Ministry of Labor in Türkiye. The visa is issued only after approval. Any agency promising "guaranteed Turkey job visas" without a real employer and Ministry approval is running a scam. goFLY only explains steps once you have a genuine sponsor.
Bangladeshi passport holders can apply for e-Visa ONLY if you meet specific eligibility criteria (typically a valid US/UK/Ireland/Schengen visa or residence permit). If you don't meet e-Visa conditions, you MUST apply for a sticker visa via the Turkey Visa Application Center (VAC) in Bangladesh.

Searches like "turkey embassy in bangladesh," "turkey embassy dhaka bangladesh," or "turkey visa center bangladesh" often reflect changing intake logistics. Always verify current VAC location, appointment portal, and fees on official sources before applying.
Bangladeshi passport holders can apply for e-Visa only if you meet specific portal-listed criteria, typically including:
If you do not meet these conditions, you MUST apply for a sticker visa via the Turkey Visa Application Center (VAC) in Bangladesh. Do not attempt e-Visa application if ineligible — it will be rejected.
Carry your e-Visa printout, supporting documents (valid US/UK/Schengen visa/residence if required), hotel confirmations, proof of funds, travel insurance, and return ticket. Immigration may verify these at entry.
Keep travel dates, hotel bookings, leave letters, and bank statement transaction flows aligned. Inconsistencies between documents are a primary reason for delays and refusals.
Always explain large recent credits with supporting documentation.
