Who We Serve
Turkey is one of the most important transit countries for the East African and Middle Eastern communities in Columbus. Istanbul Airport (IST) is a major hub for flights to Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti, East Africa, and the Middle East — meaning many Columbus residents travel through Turkey regularly. Turkish Airlines serves Mogadishu, Addis Ababa, and dozens of regional airports. Beyond transit, Columbus also has a growing Turkish-American community of students, professionals, and families.
What We Help With in Lewis Center
We are a document preparation and translation service — not an attorney or embassy. We make sure every document in your packet is complete, accurate, and correctly formatted before you submit.
Turkey e-Visa Application Assistance
Turkey offers e-visas for eligible nationalities through the official portal evisa.gov.tr. We help prepare your application, review eligibility, and ensure your supporting documents are in order.
Turkish Document Translation
Certified English translation of Turkish civil documents — birth certificates (Nüfus Cüzdanı), marriage certificates (Evlenme Cüzdanı), family registry extracts (Nüfus Kayıt Örneği), and Turkish ID documents.
Visa Support for Non-e-Visa Eligible Nationalities
Nationals of some countries — including many East African countries — may need a Turkish consular visa rather than e-visa. We help organize the supporting documents required for Turkish consulate appointments.
Passport Photos & Transit Documentation
Photos and document review for Turkish visa applications and related travel documentation.

East African & Somali Passport Holders — Consular Visa Required
Somali, Eritrean, South Sudanese, and some other East African passport holders are not eligible for Turkey's e-visa system and must apply at a Turkish consulate or embassy. The Turkish Consulate in Chicago serves Ohio residents. The application requires a complete form, specific photos, financial evidence, travel insurance, and flight/hotel confirmation. We help organize this complete package so your consulate appointment goes smoothly.
