What do you need at the border control in Istanbul besides a passport?
I’m going to Istanbul on March 14, I have electronic tickets, my friend who lives in Istanbul booked a hotel for me, of course I don’t have a voucher, there is a confirmation of the reservation. I just heard that it turns out at the border control, they can ask, in addition to the passport, to provide some other documents? Do I need to worry? Otherwise, I'm very worried

They may ask for a return ticket, honey. insurance, hotel booking, whether you have cash with you, or they may not ask anything.

So take your hotel booking confirmation with you and then you don't have to worry at all. In general, they rarely ask anything other than a passport.

Yes, I'll take it. I'm just afraid that they will need a voucher, and I will have $ 300 with me, I will go for 5 days

Don't worry - every third if not every second person arriving from Russia to Istanbul does not have a voucher.
For this, they canceled the visa so that tourists would fly themselves without travel agencies.

A voucher is not required at all. The main thing is to book a hotel.
And it is better to take out insurance in any case, it costs a penny, and medicine in Turkey is expensive.

Do not need anything.
Why pile it up, some kind of insurance and hotel vouchers, money? Thousands of Russians in Turkey have real estate, business. And what voucher should they show? And medical insurance is a private matter. on time, within 30 days.

people themselves often collect packages to Turkey and they only have a hotel reservation and an air flight in their hands, do not worry, you have a reservation and have money with tickets. If they ask you to show it, then only this

Then we “clog the brain”, which then starts lamenting in the news “oh, such and such an incident happened to a Russian, they provided assistance, but the hospital now demands 10,000 for treatment, you bastards.”
And the border guard in Turkey (as in any other country) has the RIGHT to ask where the visitor is going to live, and whether he has the means to stay in the country.

For five years of "flying" without travel agencies, they never asked anything at any Turkish customs.
But I also recommend making Med-insurance. It is not expensive, but it adds peace of mind.
pysy: by the way, my friends are also independent travelers in love with Turkey - the same garbage, they never asked anything.

I myself have been an independent traveler for many years, including to Turkey. They never asked me anything either. But this does not mean that they cannot ask, the BORDER GUARDS have such powers. Customs has nothing to do with it. Customs controls the movement of goods and items.

For four years in a row we have been traveling by car through Bulgaria to Turkey. Never, except last year, did we book anything, sometimes they asked where we were going? They answered - to Turkey and some city, in response - "gyule gyule".
The necessary documents for you are a passport and medical insurance. Happy travels, have a good rest!
