Before the mobility period, participants should be aware that the paperwork will require a signature and stamp from their departmental or institutional coordinator at the home university or at DPU. Thus, it is crucial to allow sufficient time to complete the paperwork

​Student Visa

Prior to their arrival to Turkey, incoming Erasmus students should check whether they need a visa or not. For current information please check

E-VISA or Visa Information For Foreigners.

Students should apply to student visa as soon as they receive their acceptance letter from DPU. After receiving the visa, please don’t forget to send a copy of it to DPU International Relations Office. 

Please note that incoming students are responsible for applying for a visa themselves. Erasmus Office is not involved in the application process. As processing a visa application may take a long time, you are advised to file your application as soon as possible.

Insurance

Apart from the travel insurance the Turkish Consulates may ask, we strongly advise Incoming Erasmus+ Students not to pay for a health insurance in their country since it may not comply with the Turkish regulations. Following your arrival, you can have your health insurance from Turkish Social Security Institution. There is a high possibility that the immigration office reject the health insurance policy you already purchased elsewhere even though it is clearly stated as a ‘world wide policy’ with full treatments and conditions. We do not take any responsibility if the immigration police rejects the health insurance policy you already purchased elsewhere even though it is clearly stated as a ‘world wide policy’ with full treatments and conditions.

According to the current regulations the policy must be issued by a company which has office in Türkiye and the policy should state 'this health insurance is issued in accordance with the regulations announced by law act 10.5.2016 date and 16/2016 published in Republic of Türkiye. Generally, the cost of this health insurance policy varies between 40 to 100 Euros. 

  • (Some countries – Germany, France, Belgium, Netherlands and Austria – have mutual agreements with Türkiye. Students from these countries do not need to get health insurance here. However, they have to provide an official letter from their home country`s insurance services and get it approved at the Social Security Office in Türkiye.
  • Others are required to get a health insurance in Türkiye from various insurance companies. This would cost between 40-100 Euros. 

According to new regulation, all Erasmus students must obtain a Health Insurance that is valid in Türkiye to be able to receive the residence permit.
