VFS Global is the official partner of the Embassy of Türkiye and its Consulates General in Mumbai and Hyderabad, and it publishes one fee table for every visa type. The figures below are as published on the official sources, checked on 2026-10-15, from the VFS Türkiye India pages and the missions' checklists. For documents and the application process, see our Turkey visa guide for Indian passport holders.

### How much does each Türkiye visa cost in rupees?
Every Türkiye sticker visa carries two charges: the visa fee set by the mission and the Türkiye Visa Application Fee. The application fee rises with the length of validity.

Tourists, medical travellers and family visitors on a single-entry visa pay the same table as above. Only business travellers can buy multiple entry, and visa officers verify that you qualify for it.

### Are the VFS charges included in that price?
Yes. VFS describes its service charge as included in the Türkiye Visa Application Fee, so there is no separate VFS line to add on top of the table. That is why the application fee is larger than the visa fee itself. Budget the full amount for each traveller: the VFS fee table shows no separate, lower rate for children.

### How and when do you pay?
Payment is split in two:

- Online at booking: INR 6,890 is charged when you book your appointment.
- At the centre: the remainder is paid on submission by cash, UPI or POS. For a 3-month visa that is INR 11,230.
You can book a maximum of 60 days before travel, and you must apply at a centre within your jurisdiction, which is set by your work and residence address:

### Do students and workers pay a different fee?
No. The VFS student and work visa tabs show the same table: INR 5,400 plus INR 12,720 for 3 months or INR 14,840 for 6 months, with INR 6,890 charged online at booking. What differs is time. Checklists say education visas should be applied for at least 20 working days before departure and work visas at least 25 working days before. For work, the mission refers your file to the Ministry of Labour and Social Security and e-mails a reference number valid for 30 days, within which your Turkish employer must submit its documents.

### Is the Türkiye e-Visa a cheaper alternative?
Only for some Indians. The Embassy says Indian ordinary passport holders with a valid Schengen member state, USA, UK or Ireland visa or residence permit may get a single-entry e-Visa valid for one month at evisa.gov.tr, if they meet the conditions. The supporting visa or permit must be valid on the entry date and carried in original. E-Visas cover tourism or commerce only. The e-Visa fee for Indians could not be captured from the official site, so check it there before comparing. Everyone else, and anyone going to work or study, needs the sticker visa through VFS.

### What happens to your money if you are refused?
Nothing comes back. The checklists for all visa types say there is no refund in any circumstances, and the Embassy or Consulate may refuse an application without explanation. Every document is verified with the institution that issued it, and applicants found using forged documents are given a restriction code by the Directorate of Migration Management. To protect the fee:

- Show a personal bank balance of at least 2 lakh INR per person, with statements for the last 6 months updated to within the last 15 days.
- Include ITRs for the last 3 years, or explain in your cover letter why you do not file.
- Use 2.5 x 2.5 inch photos on a white background, not more than 6 months old.
- Add travel insurance covering your whole stay in Türkiye.
- Apply in time: at least 15 working days before departure for tourist visas in the Delhi and Mumbai jurisdictions, or 6 working days in Hyderabad.
Round-trip flight and hotel reservations are listed documents for a tourist file. Yatra For Fun's India office in Gurugram prepares verifiable flight reservations, hotel bookings, itineraries and cover letters, from INR 1,000 for a flight reservation to INR 3,000 for all four together.
