The Resmi Gazete, the official publication of the Republic of Turkey, has published an agreement with Ukraine on travel of both countries` citizens with the use of ID cards, according to Chairman of the State Migration Service of Ukraine Maksym Sokoliuk.
”On May 20, the Turkish authorities officially published decision 2017/10324 to amend the mutual travel procedure and the recognition of the new form of (internal) Ukrainian passports (ID cards) as a travel document for Ukrainian citizens visiting Turkey. We are waiting for notification from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the official date for [such] travel. I think [it will take] one or two weeks,” he wrote on Facebook late on Saturday, May 20.
Earlier, Ukraine`s Foreign Ministry said in March it expected that the Ukraine-Turkey agreement on mutual travel with the use of ID cards would become effective early this summer.
