Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the end date of the trip and must not be older than 10 years.
In destinations requiring a visa, the visa application must be made using the documents specified in the "Documents Required for Visa" list that your agency will provide to you.
To avoid issues with customs police at the border of the country to be visited due to torn, worn, wet, and/or otherwise damaged passports; it is necessary to renew such passports and, if the destination country requires a visa for Turkish citizens, ensure the relevant visa is on the new passport. In case of non-compliance, responsibility lies with the passenger.
Since police officers at entry and exit points may request a document showing joint parental consent when guests under 18 years of age travel alone or with only one parent (mother or father); we recommend that our guests under 18 years of age and their parents exercise caution in this matter.
HEALTH
There is no mandatory vaccination requirement for entry into Germany. We do not anticipate any health-threatening issues with meals taken at good restaurants and hotels in the region. However, when you are not with the group, we advise you to be careful with food and drink consumption, strictly consume bottled water, avoid ice, milk, and dairy products, consume meat and fish products only if you are sure they are well-cooked, and eat fruits like bananas and pineapples whose peels can be removed.
