"I originally used MyJet24 because I did not want to pay for a dummy ticket. That was the only reason. But what actually impressed me was how the PDF looked. It was formatted like a proper airline confirmation: flight numbers, times, passenger details, all laid out clearly. The Italian embassy in Hanoi accepted it without a word. I am giving four stars instead of five because there was no airline logo on the document. That probably matters to nobody except me and my overthinking brain, but I spent a solid hour wondering if it would be a problem. It was not."
A hotel booking confirmation is one of the supporting documents Turkey embassies require alongside your flight reservation, financial proof and visa application form. The booking does not need to be paid — a held confirmation showing your full name, dates inside the visa-validity window, hotel address and a confirmation number is sufficient for visa-officer review.
What Turkey Visa Officers Look For on Your Hotel Booking
The booking must contain: full passenger name matching your passport, hotel name and exact street address in Turkey, check-in and check-out dates that align with your flight itinerary, total nights and a confirmation/reservation reference. MyJet24 produces this format directly from major booking-platform inventories — no fabricated details, no edited screenshots.

Each Turkey embassy publishes its own list of required documents. Hotel bookings are universally accepted in held form (Booking.com cancellable rate, hotel-direct hold, MyJet24 PDF). You do NOT need to pay the hotel before submitting your visa application — most embassies explicitly recommend not paying until visa approval.
Turkey e-Visa Hotel Booking — GBT Police Registration Rules 2026
Turkey's e-Visa system at evisa.gov.tr covers ~100 nationalities at $50 (most) or $20 (e-visa eligible countries) for 30/90-day stays. Operated by the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the e-Visa form does not ask for hotel proof at submission — but the Genel Bilgi Toplama (GBT) police-registration system run by the Emniyet Genel Müdürlüğü tracks every foreign hotel guest in real-time. Hotels electronically file the foreign-guest list with the local Emniyet directorate within 24 hours of check-in.
