I have been helping a friend with their travel plans and realized the online application process is much simpler than people think. The main thing is to check your nationality first because some countries are visa free while others need the eVisa for tourism or business. I used the Apply for Turkey Visa page to walk through the steps and it clearly shows you need a passport valid for 180 days from arrival with two blank pages. The form asks for your personal details, passport info, and family names, then you upload a clear bio page scan in PDF format. Payment is done by credit card or PayPal and approval usually comes within 24 hours. Just double check everything before submitting because mistakes can delay things. Also keep your hotel booking and return ticket ready for border control.
