Visa (stop-over) for my Philippine wife on the way from Manila to The Gambia

By Heiko Seilert Nov 06,2022

Dear Sir, Dear Madam,

I, Heiko Seilert, German citizen, am planing to travel with my Philippine wife and my German son to The Gambia. We are currently considering to fly with Turkish Airlines, since your airline offers the trip with only one stop in Istanbul, specifically a one day break between these two flights, i.e. Manila to Istanbul and Istanbul - Banjul, The Gambia.
However, one of your requirements for my Philippine wife to get a visa for this planned 24 hour stay is to have a visa or residence permit from Schengen or from US, UK and Ireland. We have no intend to travel to the EU, US, UK or Ireland, since we are enroute to The Gambia and just want to have a 24 break (hopefully paid by the airline), especially important for our 4 year old son. Please advise if the visa requirement for Schengen, US, UK and Ireland does apply for my wife.

Kind Regards,
Heiko Seilert
