Visa, Transportation and Accommodation

For Turkish professionals planning to attend Ids Cologne 2027, visa, transportation and accommodation arrangements are of great importance. The city of Cologne, located in the heart of Germany, offers visitors easy access, and with proper planning, the fair experience can become much more efficient. **Visa Information:** Germany is part of the Schengen area, and Turkish citizens must obtain a Schengen visa. This visa allows travel not only to Germany but also to other European countries that are parties to the Schengen Agreement. For fair participants and visitors, the Schengen visa type commonly referred to as a "commercial visa" or "business visa" is usually suitable. The documents typically required for a visa application include: a valid passport, visa application form, biometric photograph, comprehensive travel insurance, flight and hotel reservations, documents demonstrating participation in the fair such as a fair invitation or entry ticket, bank statements showing financial standing, and a letter of permission from your employer. Applications must be made through German consulates or authorized visa application centers. Submitting applications at least 1–2 months before the fair dates is critical to avoid potential delays. At Delta Expo, we also provide consultancy services during the visa process to facilitate our clients' procedures. **Transportation Information:** Transportation to the city of Cologne is highly developed at the international level. * **Air Travel:** * **Cologne Bonn Airport (CGN):** This is the nearest airport to Cologne. The distance to the fair venue (Koelnmesse) is approximately 15–20 kilometres. From the airport, the fair centre can be easily reached by train (S-Bahn S13 or S19), taxi, or bus. Trenle ulaşım yaklaşık 15 dakika sürer. **Düsseldorf International Airport (DUS):** Another major airport located approximately 60-70 kilometres from Cologne. High‑speed trains (ICE, RE) run frequently from Düsseldorf Airport to Cologne, with a journey time of about 30-40 minutes. **Frankfurt Airport (FRA):** One of Europe’s largest airports, Frankfurt Airport is roughly 190 kilometres from Cologne. Regular high‑speed train services (ICE) from there allow travel to Cologne in about one hour. **City‑wide Transport:** Cologne boasts an advanced public transport network. Trains (S-Bahn, Regionalbahn), trams (Stadtbahn), and bus lines provide convenient access to every part of the city. The Koelnmesse exhibition site is located in the Deutz district and can be easily reached via the “Köln Messe/Deutz” station. Exhibition entrance tickets are often valid for city‑wide public transport as well. **Accommodation Information:** Hotel demand rises significantly during large fairs such as IdS. Early reservations are important for securing a room and obtaining favourable pricing. The primary preferred areas for accommodation are: * **Near the Exhibition Site (Deutz District):** Hotels within walking distance of Koelnmesse or reachable by a very short public‑transport ride. Ideal for fair participants and those wishing to attend the fair early in the morning. Prices may be higher during fair periods. * **City Centre (Innenstadt):** Attractive for those who want to be close to Cologne Cathedral (Kölner Dom), shopping streets, and restaurants. The exhibition site can be reached by public transport in 10‑15 minutes. * **Along the Rhine River (Altstadt and Surroundings):** Offers beautiful hotels for those who enjoy historic ambience and river views. It is located close to the city center and provides easy access to the fair area via public transport. **More Remote Areas:** For those looking for budget-friendly options, hotels in areas slightly farther from the city center but well connected by public transport can be considered.
