Is it possible to take checked-in luggage before passport control in Ataturk airport

score:1

Accepted answer

No it is not possible.

Baggage collection in Istanbul Ataturk airport occurs after (inbound) immigration, and baggage drop occurs before (outbound) immigration.

Depending on the airlines involved, the original airline may be able to check the bags all the way through to the final destination which would remove the need to pass through immigration. If this is not possible the you will need to clear immigration in order to claim and re-check your bags.
