The document published on the official website of legal information, in particular, involves the renewal of the Agreement between Russia and Turkey "On conditions for mutual visits of citizens of the Russian Federation to the Republic of Turkey" dated May 12, 2010.
Since January 1, 2016, the agreement was partially suspended.
According to the new decree, Turkish citizens with service passports are no longer subject to these restrictions regardless of the purpose of their trip to Russia.
