Iran-Turkey, Bazargan border status
 

Hi Guys,

I am planning to cross from Iran to Turkey around 10 July.How is the situation there at the Bazargan,is it open ? Has anyone recently crossed the border from Bazargan ?

If Iran-Turkey is closed then i have to get visa for Armenia and Georgia to take alternate route.

Merhaba,
doğubeyazıt/bazargan gate has never been closed before..works 24/7 and even turkish touring club office available to buy road insurance for turkey..main one for export goods to midasia by trucks...You may see military forces on the roads during critical days..
What may be recommended is, head west to erzurum nonstop...

Best Wishes..

Good and practical information, thanks! Probably I need it.

General advice however is to avoid the Bazargan / Gurbulak border as it can be very busy. Better to try one of the two alternative crossings further south, though you will be passing through more checkpoints on the Turkish side before getting to Erzurum (which is an interesting place).
