heads up re visas
Guy arrived on our site last week for 6 months stay.
He passed thru and had his visa stamped at Bodrum airport,when he heard a kerfufel back at the booth, seems the visa wallahs were only stamping the visas for one month
He returned and insisted on 3 months so they overstamped the one month visa.
Dont know why it is done,but it could come as a shock for someone assuming they had a 3 month visa.

This was mentioned last week. That said it happended to us last Oct, but I've just checked my passport and they stamped over the sticker with 90 days. I was told it was because they had run out 3 month visa stickers.

Re: heads up re visas
I looked at someones passport the other day that was saying their visa was only for one month.
If you look really carefully at the visa .......its $10 (dollar) and one month
So I am guessing they are using up a supply of visas for Americans
But over stamped on the top in ink was very definetly..........90 days

Re: heads up re visas
Sounds about right Lynne but using up old visas for different nationalities? Gawd, only in Turkey
