🇨🇮 Ivory Coast visa requirements for Turkish citizens
Turkish citizens need an electronic travel authorization (eTA) for Ivory Coast — a quick online approval, not a full visa.
Entry rules for Turkey passport holders
Ivory Coast requires Turkish visitors to register online for an electronic travel authorization before departure. An eTA is lighter than a visa — approval is usually issued within minutes to hours — but airlines will deny boarding without it, so complete it before heading to the airport.
Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Ivory Coast immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.
How this compares
The Turkish passport ranks #81 worldwide, opening 115 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (69 visa-free, 41 with a visa on arrival and 5 with an eTA). Ivory Coast is one of them.
This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Ivorian citizens need to arrange entry to Turkey in advance (visa required).
Across Western Africa as a whole, 9 of 16 destinations are open to Turkish travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
