    What if you are unvaccinated however can provide proof of recent covid recovery from NHS app within 6 months is this ok to travel meaning no vaccination or pre departure test needed?
    You stated in your first post that you were vaccinated: 2 jabs?

    Drip, drip...
    The requirements for unvaccinated UK travellers to enter Turkey are clearly set out on the .gov.uk site, but essentially you will need a commercial negative PCR or rapid antigen test result, or proof of a recovery from covid within the last 6 months.

    I am a little concerned that you appear to be travelling, and assisting others with questions about yours and their entry into Turkey- yet do not understand the information you are being given, nor seem able to go direct to the Gov. website. 

    Can I please refer you again to eskbanker's excellent post as follows:

    "Yes, but you'd be better off relying on official authoritative sources rather than asking anonymous internet strangers:

    https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/turkey/entry-requirements#if-youre-not-fully-vaccinated "

    and, if you do not understand the information, to let one of the other travellers read it for themselves and perhaps advise you. 

    I know I probably sound rude, and apologies for that, but it is important that a traveller knows where to check information - what if things change whilst you are overseas - what if none of the excellent regulars on here were around to assist?

    Just to update this thread, from the 1st June 2022 , there is no longer a requirement to present vaccination proof, PCR tests to enter Turkey. On Turkish Airlines, masks are now optional. So all the bickering above can stop.
