To work in Turkey, your employer first gets a work permit approved by the Turkish Ministry of Labour. You then apply for the work visa from Pakistan.
This checklist is for Pakistani passport holders applying from Pakistan. If you live in another country, the process and documents can be different.
What the Turkish authorities require
- Apply for the work visa at the Turkish mission, with a passport valid for at least 6 months and 60 days beyond your visa
- A letter or contract from your employer in Türkiye
- Your employer must submit its own documents to the Turkish Ministry of Labour within 10 working days of your application
- After you arrive, you register with the local authorities for a residence permit within one month
Documents usually needed
- Visa application form and photo
- Degrees and experience letters
- Employment contract
Good to know
- A work permit is approved by the Turkish Ministry of Labour. We do not arrange jobs; we prepare your part of the file once you have a genuine employer in Türkiye.
