Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.

  • Letter of Invitation from registered Turkmen travel agency
  • Confirmed flight tickets and detailed travel itinerary
  • Pre-booked accommodation through authorized agency
  • Two passport photos 3.5x4.5cm with white background
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the duration of stay
