Getting help in Turkey

Passports

If you’re abroad and cannot use your passport, for example if it’s been lost, stolen or damaged, you can apply for a replacement passport.

If you need to travel before your replacement passport is issued, you can apply for an emergency travel document.

Emergency assistance

Contact your travel provider and insurer if you’re involved in a serious incident or emergency abroad. They’ll tell you if they can help and what you need to do to make a claim.

We can help British nationals in emergencies abroad. We prioritise people who are vulnerable and need our help the most. Read what to do if you need help:

finding English-speaking lawyers, funeral directors and translators and interpreters in Turkey
dealing with a death in Turkey
following an arrest in Turkey
as a victim of crime
with hospitalisation due to a medical emergency

Getting help

If you cannot get the support you need from local services, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) can help British people abroad.

We prioritise emergencies and people who are vulnerable, for example, if someone’s:

ill, injured, or involved in a crime
with a British person who’s died

Get help from FCDO
