Hello,

After obtaining Turkish citizenship, does anybody know how to remove the "police hold" that is placed on your new passport that prevents you from using the automatic gates at passport control?聽 Apparently this occurs because you previously used original-country passport to enter Turkey, so you are automatically flagged by the system.

I don't any criminal record in Turkey or any other country, so there is no other reason for the "police hold".

Hello Agrosaurus,

Welcome to 大咖福利影院馃榾

For a more accurate response, I suggest checking directly with the relevant authorities in 罢眉谤办颈测别. They will be able to explain why your passport was flagged and advise you on the next steps to remove the 鈥減olice hold鈥� and access the automatic gates.

All the best,

Cheryl
