Watch it on your TV, not your phone

  1. Smart TV: open your TV's app store, install the app and sign in.
  2. No app on your TV? A Fire TV Stick or an Android TV box adds the same apps to any TV with HDMI.
  3. On a phone or laptop: cast it to the TV with Chromecast or AirPlay.

Quick answers

Questions people ask

What's the easiest way to watch Turkish TV in the UK?

One subscription with about 400 Turkish channels, such as our advertiser VOLTIX: the Turkish channels live, plus your UK channels and 80+ countries, on any device. The UK has no official Turkish package: tabii covers TRT, and the channels' own live streams may not play abroad.

Is there an official Turkish package in the UK?

We couldn't find one. Sky and Virgin show no separate Turkish pack. TRT has its tabii app, and the channels' own live streams may not play abroad.

Does tabii work abroad?

tabii is TRT's international streaming platform. The free version shows TRT channels and shows with ads, but what plays abroad depends on the licence, and some live sport, such as the World Cup, can only be watched in Turkey.

Do I need a TV licence if I only watch Turkish channels?

Yes. In the UK you need a TV licence to watch live TV on any channel and any device, foreign channels included.

Can I watch Turkish news live in the UK?

Yes. TRT's tabii app has the TRT channels, though what plays abroad depends on the licence. For Turkish news channels in one place, our advertiser VOLTIX has 17 Turkish news channels live.

Are there Turkish cartoons for my kids in the UK?

Yes. TRT's tabii app has a children's section, though what plays abroad depends on the licence. Our advertiser VOLTIX has 9 Turkish kids' channels live.

Do I need a satellite dish?

No. Everything in this guide works over your home internet: a smart TV, a Fire TV Stick or Android TV box, a phone or a laptop. No dish, no installer, no landlord's permission.

Can I watch on my TV?

Yes: use your smart TV's app, add a Fire TV Stick or Android TV box, or cast from your phone or laptop.
