International visas • Preparation and follow-up service
The US visa from Turkey (B1/B2 visitor visa) requires the DS-160 form and an in-person interview at the US Embassy in Ankara or the US Consulate General in Istanbul. At OYA Tourism we prepare your application and file, book your interview appointment and prepare you for it, with honesty and clarity from the start.
Why apply through OYA?
With this type of visa, your entire file is examined: an accurate form, consistent documents, and bookings that match your travel plan. That is why we prepare your US visa file with you properly from the start and book your appointment, and you attend the biometrics or interview yourself.
OYA Tourism is a private travel agency, not a government body. Our service fee is modest, and we explain it to you separately from the official fees before we start; the final decision rests with the competent authority alone.
The steps begin with filling in the DS-160 form accurately and paying the application fee (MRV), then booking the interview appointment. Since September 2, 2025, an in-person interview has been required of almost all applicants, including children under 14 and older adults over 79, with limited exceptions.
Arab nationals residing in Turkey with legal residence can apply from Turkey, bringing their civil documents and proof of completed military service or exemption from it. Interview wait times vary a great deal and may stretch to several months in Istanbul, so we advise you to plan early and follow the official US Department of State wait-time tool.
We make a point of being upfront with you before you pay any fees: some nationalities are currently subject to US entry restrictions under a presidential proclamation in effect since January 1, 2026, which in most cases makes it impossible to issue visit visas to their citizens, including Syria, Yemen, Libya, Sudan and Somalia, and the restrictions also cover travel documents issued by the Palestinian Authority. These lists are reviewed periodically, so we check the status of your nationality first.
Our role includes filling in the DS-160, booking the appointment, preparing the file and coaching for the interview. The decision rests with the consular officer alone at the interview, and no one can guarantee it.
Types and options
For tourism, visiting family and friends, and medical treatment.
For meetings, conferences and business negotiations, without working inside the United States.
The most common form, covering both purposes. Its validity and number of entries vary by nationality, and the immigration officer determines the length of stay on arrival.

Under the US entry restrictions in effect since January 1, 2026, visit visas are mostly not issued to holders of passports from a number of countries, including Syria and Yemen. We know this is frustrating, which is why we are upfront with you before you pay any fees, and we can suggest suitable alternative destinations if you wish.
The application fee (MRV) is set by the US government and is not refunded if the visa is refused. It may change, so we confirm it with you at the time of application. We help you fill in the DS-160 form and review it carefully, and you sign and submit it yourself. We also organize your file and prepare you for the interview for a small service fee that we explain to you before we start.
