Director of Relations at the General Authority for Land and Sea Ports in Syria, Mazen Alosh:
The Turkish authorities issue a decision that allows the citizens of Bahrain, the Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, the Sultanate of Oman, Jordan, Yemen and Palestine to pass through the land border crossings with Syria in accordance with the visa system used in Turkey without the need for prior approval.
Syrian citizens of foreign nationality can now leave Syria through any of the land border crossings with Turkey with the intention of crossing (crossing) to their country of residence, regardless of their method of entry into Syria.
The Turkish side requires that at the ports in front of Al-Salma, Al-Rai and Tal Abyad, Syrian citizens holding foreign citizenship (except for Turkish citizenship) must present a valid Syrian passport upon departure, provided that their personal data matches the data of the foreign passport.
