Entry details
On a Syria passport, you need a visa obtained in advance for Turkey. The Syria passport currently ranks #198 of 199 worldwide, with 28 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Turkey is selective but not restrictive, admitting 108 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #82 with 115 open destinations. Both sit in Middle East, where regional agreements often shape entry rules. The reverse direction is smoother: Turkey passport holders get visa-free for Syria.
In the opposite direction, Turkey citizens travelling to Syria face: visa-free for up to 90 days.
