Merhaba! I am Shun Yoshida from Tokyo Consulting Firm Turkey Office.
This week I would like to mention information regarding “How to Obtain the HES Code“.
In order to cope with the still-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, “HES Code” has been put into place by the Turkish Ministry of Health from early June. All travelers are obliged to obtain a valid HES Code (Hayat Eve Sığar) for the use of public transportation including domestic and international flights, train and ferry travel. The HES Code will be obtained for a certain period of time upon request.
There are several ways to obtain it depending on your residential status in Turkey. Please kindly refer to the following explanation.
【Case①: You have Turkish Citizenship】
Send a text message to phone number 2023 that includes;
(1) The Letters “HES”
(2) Your Turkish ID Number
(3) The last 4 digits of the serial number of your Turkish ID number
(4) The Number of Days Which HES Code Should Remain Valid
(Expiry date must be at least 7 days extra after the last travelling date.)
*Please put a single space between each item.
Example: HES 12345678901 5376 30
【Case②: You Have a Turkish Resident ID】
Send a text message to phone number 2023 that includes;
(1) The Letters “HES”
(2) Your Turkish ID Number
(3) Your Year of Birth
(4) The Number of Days Which HES Code Should Remain Valid
(Expiry date must be at least 7 days extra after the last travelling date.)
*Please put a single space between each item.
Example: HES 12345678901 1990 30
【Case③: You Do Not Have a Turkish ID (Non-resident Foreigners)】
Send a text message to phone number 2023 that includes;
(1) The Letters “HES”
(2) 3 Capital Letters of Your Nationality on Your Passport
(3) Your Passport Number
(4) Your Year of Birth
(5) Your Surname (Capital Letter)
*Please put a single space between each item.
