This is not a foreign visitor visa exemption. - This does not decide dual-nationality/document choice, exit restrictions, residence, work, military, registration, security or individual border treatment. Official sources: - [State Migration Service of Turkmenistan: Border-crossing rules for Turkmenistan citizens](https://migration.gov.tm/pages/tkm-serhetden-gecmegin-duzgunleri) - [State Information Agency of Turkmenistan: Law of Turkmenistan on Migration: citizen entry right](https://www.turkmenistan.gov.tm/ru/post/16873/zakon-turkmenistana-o-migratsii) - **Current official route — Kazakhstan ordinary passport: Turkmenistan visa required** (Visa required) Kazakhstan MFA’s current passport-type table marks Turkmenistan as “visa” for an ordinary Kazakhstan passport, consistent with Turkmenistan’s statutory foreign-visitor visa baseline. - This normalization does not cover work, transit, diplomatic/service passports, residence-based entry or any local border arrangement. - Visa issuance and final admission remain subject to the competent Turkmen authorities and required documents. Official sources: - [Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan: Visa regime for citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan](https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa/activities/34741?lang=en&parentId=3064) - [Mejlis of Turkmenistan: Law of Turkmenistan on Migration](https://mejlis.gov.tm/single-law/226?lang=tm) - **Current official route — Russian ordinary passport: Turkmenistan visa required** (Visa required) Russia MFA’s current passport-type table records that a Russian ordinary passport requires a visa for Turkmenistan; the cited bilateral agreement is limited to the listed visa-free passport class. - This maps only ordinary passports for a short visitor purpose. It excludes diplomatic/service passports, residence/document exemptions, work, transit and individual admission decisions. - Turkmenistan’s current law provides that visa/eVisa is unnecessary where its international treaties provide a waiver; the Russian MFA table identifies the ordinary Russian passport as requiring a visa. - Visa issuance and final admission remain subject to the competent Turkmen authorities and required documents. Official sources: - [Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation: Current entry rules by passport type](https://www.kdmid.ru/info-for-traveling-abroad/reference-information-for-traveling-abroad/list-of-countries-with-simplified-entry/) - [Mejlis of Turkmenistan: Law of Turkmenistan on Migration](https://mejlis.gov.tm/single-law/226?lang=tm) - **Current official route — Türkiye ordinary passport: visa required for Turkmenistan** (Visa required) Türkiye's current Foreign Ministry country notice directly states that ordinary Turkish passport holders are subject to a Turkmenistan visa requirement. The Turkmen Migration Law supplies the destination's visa baseline while preserving treaty exceptions. - This policy concerns a Turkish ordinary passport travelling for a short visitor purpose. It does not establish a visa-free, eVisa, ETA or visa-on-arrival route. - The separately described 30-day waiver is for service, special and diplomatic passports and requires the stated approval or invitation; it does not alter the ordinary-passport baseline. - Turkmenistan's law provides that foreign entry is visa-based unless an international treaty provides otherwise. Visa issuance, invitation, passport, purpose, registration and final-admission conditions remain applicable.

It does not normalize transit visas, work, purpose, sponsor, entry point or final-admission conditions. Official source: - [Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: FCDO Turkmenistan entry requirements](https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/turkmenistan/entry-requirements) - **Current official route — Australian ordinary passports: expressly pre-departure visas** (Visa required) Smartraveller expressly requires these visas before arrival or travel. - TM also requires a letter of invitation, even for transit. TD and NE require a visa before arrival/travel. - This does not normalize work, residence, special documents, entry-point, security or final-admission requirements.
