Turkey travel warning from the Foreign Office for holidaymakers

New travel warnings, advice and guidance have been issued to holidaymakers heading to Turkey this year. The Foreign Office has advised against travelling to certain areas of the country and is advising against all but essential travel to some areas. Visiting these areas could therefore invalidate holidaymakers' travel insurance.

The UK Government guidance was updated on Wednesday, June 28, and is vital for the 1.6 million UK holidaymakers who visit Turkey each year. The UK's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) also has listed the entry rules for Turkey, important local laws travellers need to know as well as personal safety and security risks, reports BirminghamLive.

It said: "The safety of British nationals is always our main concern in determining our travel advice. We constantly review our travel advice for each country or territory to ensure it includes up-to-date information and advice on the most relevant issues for British people visiting or living there.
