Turkish requirements

Transit Log, Customs, passport, health and Harbour Directorate requirements.

Frontier-port arrival and departure

A yacht arriving from a foreign port or departing Turkey for a foreign port should use a designated frontier port. Confirm that the chosen port can handle the yacht, crew, route and planned time before relying on it for formalities.

Transit Log and vessel declarations

Foreign-yacht formalities are recorded through the Yacht Registration Form, commonly called the Transit Log. It brings together vessel, customs, passport, health, port, crew and passenger information for the stay in Turkey.

Passport and visa formalities

Turkey is outside the Schengen Area. Passport entry or exit requirements apply when crossing the Turkish border, and visa or visa-exemption conditions depend on each person's nationality and travel document.

Customs and temporary use

Customs treatment depends on the yacht's flag, ownership, use and the owner's or user's residence. Foreign private, charter and commercial yachts should provide their full status so the local agent can confirm the applicable process.

Harbour Directorate and local sequence

The relevant Harbour Directorate and other competent authorities may need to complete or review parts of the arrival or departure. Office sequence and attendance arrangements vary by port and should be confirmed locally.

Waste records and Blue Card tracking

Turkey operates vessel-waste controls that include Blue Card tracking for yachts and other smaller vessels. Keep waste-delivery records and confirm the current local process with the marina or agent.

Skipper preparation

Practical points before contacting the agent.

Arrange the request before reaching Alanya, especially for a weekend, public holiday or late arrival.

This port appears on the official frontier-port list. Confirm current yacht-clearance availability and attendance arrangements before arrival.

Do not rely on an old fee, office time, authority sequence or radio channel without current confirmation.

Carry clear digital copies and, where practical, printed copies of the yacht, insurance, passport and crew records.

State the yacht's flag, private or commercial use, ownership and customs position accurately.
