🇱🇻 Latvia Visa Procedures
Turkish citizens who plan to travel to Latvia are required to meet the visa requirements in order to enter the country. Short-term stays are evaluated within the scope of the Schengen Visa, and throughout the application process, all procedures are monitored by Marsel Visa, guiding the applicant in the most suitable way according to their travel plan. The only expectation from the applicant is to prepare the documents completely and deliver them to us.
📌 Latvia Visa Requirement
Among Turkish citizens traveling to Latvia, holders of Special (Green), Service (Grey), and Diplomatic (Black) passports are exempt from visas for stays not exceeding 90 days within a 180-day period. However, Ordinary (Bordeaux/Maroon) passport holders are required to obtain a visa for short-term travel. Short-term visa applications of third-country nationals residing in Turkey are also evaluated by the Embassy of Latvia in Ankara.
Since short-term visa applications are evaluated under the Schengen framework, applicants are required to have fingerprint (biometric) records. Fingerprint records taken within the last 5 years during a Schengen visa application remain valid, and in such cases, there is no need to provide fingerprints again.
