Meis Ferry Lines Check-In & Boarding

Arrive early

Arrive at the port at least 1 hour before departure. You’ll need that time for passport and customs control at the Meis Ferry Lines check-in desk.

Your boarding pass

Your booking confirmation arrives by email. You still need to collect your boarding pass at the check-in desk before you go through border control. Seats aren’t numbered, so sit wherever you like.

Required documents

Bring your passport or ID. Some nationalities also need a Schengen visa, and possibly a multiple-entry Turkish visa to get back into Turkey. If you have a Turkish green or service passport, you don’t need a Schengen visa.

You also need to give your Turkish ID number when you book. Other passengers don’t.

If you’re a Turkish citizen with a Northern Cyprus (KKTC) entry stamp in your passport, you can’t travel to Greece with that passport.

Traveling with children

Children under 18 can travel to Kastellorizo with both parents. If one parent isn’t traveling, the person accompanying the child needs notarized consent. If the parents are divorced, the original custody document is enough.

Pregnant women of 6 (or more) months are not allowed to travel aboard

Fees paid at the port

Two fees aren’t included in your ticket price:

  • Kastellorizo port tax: €5. You pay it in cash only.
  • Kaş customs area service fee: 200 TL. Kaş Municipality charges it to all passengers leaving Kaş. You pay it by card only.
