I am Bulgarian, so I can enter turkey without a visa for a period of 3 months. I’ve been here for 2 months and I need to urgently go to Bulgaria for a few days and then come back. Will they stop me from re-entering turkey on my way back (even though my 3 months haven’t finished yet?

This is URGENT. Please let me know

If you have a valid visa it will not be a problem to come back to Turkey in 3 month period.

yes, bulgarian passport holders are exempt from visa for their travels up to 90 days within 6 months starting from the first entry date.
so, as far as i am concerned, yr entrance is not subject to any limitation by means of "number of entry" during 180 days period starting from yr first entry date, which means the number of days you left turkey will not be counted and deducted from yr 3 months until and in case you are back within 6 months.
what if you exceed 6 months? i think you will get a new 90 days touristic entrance once again at the gate to use within 180 days.
what if you used 3 months, but not exceed 6 months yet? i dont know. maybe you will have to apply official visa instead of the one you get at the gate.
