Turkey – the gateway between (Southeastern) Europe and (Western) Asia, with a small part of the country being considered to be in Europe and the remainder of the land in Asia.
Known for its sweet, sweet tea, famous kebabs, and for being an affordable travel destination, Turkey is a popular country to visit by travelers of all kinds.
From the busy streets in Istanbul to the Roman ruins in Antalya, from the hot air balloon festival in Cappadocia to Bodrum Castle in Bodrum, the country hosts everything for anyone. And of course… plenty of cool beaches.
Before you start sharing your beach-life photos or videos of exploring ruins, be aware that international roaming can be expensive. Roaming in Turkey could make your relatively affordable trip suddenly more expensive.
Luckily, you can get a Turkish SIM card to enjoy local rates. The best part is that Turkey has one of the lowest mobile data rates in the Middle East AND worldwide.
You can get a Turkish SIM card for as low as 30 TRY (1.55 USD) from Turkcell, Vodafone, and Türk Telekom. However, it will be a challenge to pay such a price as a tourist or traveler – you can be charged up to 200 TRY (10.30 USD) for Turkish SIM cards (unless a local can negotiate a better deal for you).
Special note for those from Ukraine: be sure to ask about special benefits for Ukrainians. Many mobile operators around Europe have waived fees for you or introduced exclusive plans, including free calls back to Ukraine. Слава Україні! 🇺🇦
Even if you have to pay a tourist premium for your SIM card, you can still enjoy low mobile data rates. You can get 1 GB of data valid for 7 days for as little as 7 TRY (0.80 USD). There will not be a roaming deal out there cheaper than this!
The Turkish mobile operators love to offer choice – a lot. They all have around 90 different prepaid packages, let alone postpaid ones. So there is quite a lot to go through when trying to find the best plan for you.
Luckily for you, I have listed it all in this guide.
In this guide, I will go over everything you need to know about buying a SIM card in Turkey. Let's do this.

Moreover, you need a phone that supports the frequencies used in the country (preferably all of them to have the most optimal experience while in Turkey).
Furthermore, you need to have a SIM-lock-free device.
Where Can You Buy a SIM Card in Turkey?
You can get a Turkish SIM card in the official stores of Turkcell, Vodafone Turkey & Türk Telekom. They can also be obtained from other stores, including kiosks, mini markets, and electronic shops. It is also possible to get SIM cards at international airports, including Istanbul Airport.
You can buy a SIM card in the following international airports:
- Adana – Adana Şakirpaşa Airport (Adana Havalimanı)
- Ankara – Ankara Esenboğa Airport – Ankara (Ankara Esenboğa Havalimanı)
- Antalya – Antalya Airport (Antalya Havalimanı)
- Dalaman – Dalaman Airport (Dalaman Havalimanı)
- Istanbul – Istanbul Airport (İstanbul Havalimanı)
- Istanbul – Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (İstanbul Sabiha Gökçen Uluslararası Havalimanı)
- Izmir – İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport (İzmir Adnan Menderes Havalimanı)
- Milas & Bodrum – Milas–Bodrum Airport (Milas-Bodrum Havalimanı)
You can expect to pay the following for Turkish SIM cards:
- Turkcell: between 34 TRY to 200 TRY
- Vodafone Turkey: between 40 TRY and 200 TRY
- Türk Telekom: up to 200 TRY
It is highly recommended to purchase SIM cards at the official stores of the mobile operators.
Third-party resellers will often charge you much more than the official list price of SIM cards.
However, each Turkcell, Vodafone Turkey, and Türk Telekom branch is can set its own prices (for foreigners).
In most cases, the mobile operators will sell you a SIM card with an (expensive) plan. These offers will often be cheaper than what authorized dealers will sell you (up to 400 TRY – 47 USD).
The following operators also have SIM cards targeting tourists:
- Turkcell: 169 TRY
- Vodafone Turkey: 40 TRY (excludes new SIM card fee)
- Find out how much SIM cards cost in every country, including data-only SIM cards and tourist SIM cards, offered by each mobile operator + information about starter benefits (lookup tool)
Can You Use Your Phone in Turkey?
Turkey uses GSM technology for mobile communications. CDMA phones will not work in Turkey. If your phone has a SIM card slot, then it supports GSMA (99% of the phones do support GSM nowadays).
Traditional European frequencies are used in Turkey, which are mostly used in ITU Regions 1 & 3 (Africa, Asia (including the Middle East), Europe & Oceania).
The Americas (North-, Central– & South America + the Caribbean – ITU Region 2) use American Frequencies, which differ from the European ones.
If you bought your phone in Africa, Asia, Europe, or Oceania (ITU Regions 1 & 3), you should not experience any issues with using your phone in Turkey.
If you purchased your phone in the Americas (ITU Region 2) and have a low/medium-end device (without Tri-Band or Quad-Band) support, then there is a possibility you cannot use your phone when in Turkey or can only use slower networks (3G or 2G).
If you have a medium/high-end device with Tri-Band or Quad-Band support, you can use your phone in Turkey (to some extent) – also on 4G/LTE.
Mobile Operators, Networks & Frequencies in Turkey
Turkey has three mobile network operators offering prepaid services easily accessible to travelers:
- Turkcell
- Vodafone Turkey
- Türk Telekom
The following frequencies are used in Turkey:
- 2G: 1800 MHz
- 3G: 900 MHz & 2100 MHz
- 4G/LTE: 800 MHz (Band 20), 900 MHz (Band 8), 1800 MHz (Band 3), 2100 MHz (Band 1) & 2600 MHz (Band 7)
You can learn more about frequencies in the video below.
To check whether your phone will work in Turkey, check out this page by Kimovil or this one by Will My Phone Work (outdated, unfortunately, but extremely user-friendly – useful for phones launched in or before 2019. It does not check for 5G NR compatibility).
Again, make sure your phone is unlocked. Otherwise, you will not be able to use any SIM card except the one from your home operator (meaning you have to roam internationally or buy another unlocked phone that does support the frequencies listed above).
If you want to learn how international roaming works, this guide explains it in-depth. If you wonder why it is often so expensive to roam, this article explains the hidden reason they do not want you to know.
5G NR in Turkey
Commercial 5G NR is not available in Turkey yet. However, 5G NR trials have been held since 2016. The Turkish government has not indicated when it will hold 5G license auctions.
The three operators, Turkcell, Vodafone Turkey & Türk Telekom, have all held (live) 5G NR trials and tests. Turkcell even managed to achieve a download speed world record during a trial in 2019 with a download speed of 2.283 Gbps. However, that record has been broken already.
Best SIM Card in Turkey
If you want to buy the best SIM card in Turkey, I recommend going with Turkcell. It has the fastest speeds in the country and extensive coverage.
Best eSIM in Turkey
Unfortunately, none of the mobile operators offer eSIM (to prepaid customers) in Turkey yet.
However, you can get travel eSIMs from Airalo.
However, you can also get a travel eSIM from various eSIM providers.
The list below is not exhaustive – many more providers have eSIMs for Turkey.
But these are the ones I have tried and had pleasant experiences with.
Moreover, they are reasonably priced, which I find very important (you will not see me recommending an eSIM I would not buy myself).
So here are the seven best eSIMs for Turkey:
- Airalo Turkey Merhaba eSIM with six choices between 1 GB and 20 GB (top pick)
- Airalo Eurolink eSIM with six choices between 1 GB and 100 GB – read my ongoing Airalo Eurolink eSIM review too!
- Airalo Discover Global eSIM with five choices between 1 GB and 20 GB (top pick) – read my ongoing Airalo Discover Global eSIM review too!
- Holafly Turkey eSIM with unlimited data for 5 to 60 days
- Nomad Turkey eSIM with 11 choices between 1 GB and 20 GB
- Nomad International eSIM with three choices between 1 GB and 5 GB
Because this is the SIM card buying guide for Turkey, I will not spend too much time about travel eSIMs here and throughout this guide (but I will still do here and there).
If you want to learn more about the best eSIMs for Turkey, you better check out my Turkey eSIM buying guide.
It is as helpful and comprehensive as this guide but about eSIMs instead 😜.
SIM Card Registration Turkey
SIM card registration with your passport information is mandatory in Turkey. It will be done at the point of sale.
- Find out which countries have SIM card registration regulations and what is required from you (lookup tool)
IMEI Registration & Foreign Phone Tax in Turkey
As of 2015, all phones using Turkish SIM cards have to be registered with the government using the device's IMEI. Before you can register your phone, though, you have to pay a tax of between 1838.70 TRY and 2006.20 TRY (2021 figures) at a local tax office.
But do not get too worried yet – you have a grace period of 120 days. If you stay in Turkey for fewer than 120 days AND use a Turkish SIM card, you do not have to pay the fee (nor do you have to register your phone).
The tax only applies when using a Turkish SIM card and using your device for more than 120 days in Turkey. If you roam in Turkey, you are not subject to this tax, even if you use Northern Cypriot SIM cards. The same counts for when you use international SIM cards.
Be aware that if you do not register your phone within 120 days when using a Turkish SIM card and you revisit Turkey with the same phone, you will not be able to use said device with a Turkish SIM card.
You would have to roam, use an international SIM card different device, or pay the tax – trying to use a different Turkish SIM card (from another operator) will not be a workaround for this rule.
Note that dual-SIM phones have two IMEI numbers. You could use a Turkish SIM card in slot one for the first 120 days and again in slot two for another 120 days, giving you a total use time of 240 days without paying the tax.
More information related to IMEI registration can be found on the Bilgi Teknolojileri ve İletişim Kurumu (MCKS) site. However, the English version of this site has been broken for months.
EU Roaming in Turkey
Turkey is not part of the European Union (EU) nor the European Economic Area (EEA). However, it is a Potential Candidate Country for joining the EU.
As a result, the EU/EEA Roam Like At Home roaming regulation does not apply in Turkey. Consequently, you should not expect to roam for free if you have an EU/EEA SIM card while traveling in Turkey.
This also means that you can not roam for free in the EU/EEA with a Turkey SIM card.
Turkey Mobile Speeds, Mobile Internet Prices & Insights
Turkey has always been one of the Middle Eastern countries with the lowest prices for mobile data. That is still the case to this day – at least, from a global perspective.
So much much does mobile data cost in Turkey?
The average price for 1 GB of data in Turkey is 0.63 USD, far below the Middle Eastern average of 3.94 USD. The world average is 4.07 USD.
In fact, Turkey is one of three Middle countries where the average cost of 1 GB of data is less than 1 USD. Moreover, it is also one of the 53 countries where the same applies.
So what about speeds? Can you get fast download speeds in Turkey?
Turkey's average mobile download speed is around 48 Mbps.
That is not too bad! Sure, the average is slightly below the global average, but only 47 countries have average download speeds above the worldwide average.
And with the introduction of 5G NR in Turkey very soon, Turkey should be climbing the ranks quickly like other Middle Eastern nations have done, such as the United Arab Emirates (#1), Qatar (#4), Kuwait (#6), Saudi Arabia (#7) & Cyprus (#8) – and those are just the Middle Eastern nations in the top 10!
With extensive nationwide coverage, low costs for SIM cards (if lucky) and data, you should have a smooth network experience in Turkey.
Currency in Turkey
Turkey uses the Turkish Lira with the symbol TRY (which will be used throughout this guide).
However, prices are often listed in TL or ₺. For example, 25 TRY = TL/₺ 25.
For reference, below are some exchange rates between TRY and USD (US Dollars):
- 1 TRY = 0.55 USD
- 10 TRY = 0.50 USD
- 100 TRY = 5.15 USD
- 1000 TRY = 51.60 USD
For up-to-date TRY:your currency (let's say EUR – Euro) exchange rates, use the Wise Currency Converter tool.
If your credit/debit card charges you foreign exchange fees, get yourself a Wise Borderless Account and Debit Card.
Their fees are MUCH lower than banks and credit card companies charge you (and Wise is transparent about their fees, unlike banks).
I have saved literal THOUSANDS of Australian Dollars and Euros, my main currencies, when using Wise abroad when traveling compared to my debit and credit cards.
