Through Turkey with non-European plates: caret du passage needed??
I plan to drive through Turkey, en route from Syria to Europe, with non-European licence plates. I’ve been receiving conflicting accounts of whether or not, in this case, a carnet du passage is needed for Turkey. I’d be glad to hear from anyone who’s driven through Turkey in a vehicle not registered in Europe. Was a carnet needed? If so, perhaps a 'temporary carnet' can be obtained at the border??

Just rode through the Southern most border from Alexandroupoli, Greece into Istanbul last week with a California license plate. All I had to show was the motorcycle title, green card insurance, and my passport. No carnet necessary.

We drove our Indian registered car through Turkey and did not get our Carnet stamped there

I past trough Turkey on a Australian registered bike in July this year. We needed to get insurance at the border 3 months for 10 lira.Green card for Europe is not valid for Turkey. They did want to see the Carnet but the bike gets stamped into the passport.You may be OK without the Carnet as long as you have the rest of the paperwork.
Due to family problems I had to leave Turkey for 2 weeks with the bike in lockup at the custom house in Anatalia and 2 hours of paperwork to be filled out and stamped. Without Customs OK and another stamp in your passport there is no way you get out of the country. I know its not what you asked but just so you know. Mark |
