Visitors to Turkey are being advised to carry their passport and a printed copy of e-visas at all times.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office advice comes as the country’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan, announced a three-month state of emergency following last Friday’s failed coup.
The FCO also said some dual nationals carrying green or grey passports may be questioned on exiting Turkey.
But it said the state of emergency ‘isn’t expected to affect tourists’ and said although security force activity may be visible from some resorts, coastal resorts ‘don’t appear to be significantly affected at present’.
The state of emergency means the government will be able to enforce curfews, restrict or suspend rights and freedoms, have tighter control on the media and greater powers of arrest.
