When you visit Turkiye, you will notice that the majority of adult websites are blocked. If you are a resident or an expat, you have most likely been subjected to these restrictions for a long time.
Although Turkiye is one of three Middle Eastern countries where pornography is not illegal, authorities blocked thousands of sexually explicit websites following the Internet Act of 2007. Nowadays, it is nearly impossible to find an accessible adult website. Yet, there is no need to be concerned. I’m here to show you the most convenient and secure way to watch porn in Turkiye.
In this article, you will learn how to change your Turkish IP address using a reputable VPN service. This way, you can access any porn site while also protecting yourself from monitoring. Let’s start with an overview.
Fortunately, we can get around this restriction by using a VPN service. Using the VPN connection, we will get an IP address from a country where pornography is legal and accessible. This will allow us to watch porn freely in Turkiye.
How to watch porn in Turkiye with a VPN connection:
- Visit VeePN’s official website. It has lightning-fast servers in over 60 countries, including those where pornography is legal and freely available.
- Select a plan by clicking the “Continue” button.
- Depending on your needs, you can add the offered additional features to your cart or skip the offer.
- To finish your order, enter your email address and select a payment method.
- Check your inbox and copy the login information VeePN provided.
- Return to VeePN’s website and select the VeePN app compatible with your device from the “VPN apps” menu.
- Start the installation and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Launch the VeePN app and log in with your email and password.
- Connect to the “Netherlands” server in the server list.
There are numerous server options available to access porn sites in Turkey, but I recommend connecting to servers in the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Moldova due to their strong internet infrastructure and liberal laws.
Now that our connection is established, let’s see if we can access Pornhub with our new IP address:

As you see, we can now access Pornhub and other restricted adult websites with our new Dutch IP address.
If you need a quick fix to access adult websites in Turkiye, our nine-step VPN guide above will do the trick. But, of course, it is completely natural to have questions like “Why can’t I access adult websites in Turkiye?“, “Which VPN service is the best for watching porn in Turkiye?“, “How do I use a VPN service?” and much more.
Don’t worry; the rest of the article will provide you with an in-depth presentation on all of these topics. Let us get right to work because we have a lot to cover.
Why am I unable to access adult websites in Turkiye?
Before we can solve a problem, we must first understand what is causing it. First, let us go back to 2007, when adult websites began to be actively targeted by government in Turkiye. According to The International Angle, “the internet censorship in Turkey started with the Internet Act of 2007. The Act allowed the AKP (the Justice and Development Party in Turkey) to censor all porn sites in the country under the guise of protecting family values and minors.”
Later, Turkiye passed legislation allowing the government to block websites without a court order. As a result, an enormous number of websites were blocked. By the end of 2022, the number of banned sites had already surpassed 700,000, with adult sites accounting for the vast majority of this total. When you visit any of these websites, you will see the following notice:

- Restriction notice: “Website has been blocked by the decision dated 18/07/2022 and numbered 490.05.01.2022-681114 of Information and Communication Technologies Authority.”
It was once possible to circumvent these restrictions on adult websites by using free DNS services such as Google DNS and OpenDNS. It didn’t take long, however, for these services to be “hijacked” by Turkish ISPs. Cloudflare’s new DNS service was also filtered on the day of its launch in 2018. As a result, we can conclude that this method is no longer useful.
The recent history of adult website bans in Turkiye may have made the situation appear hopeless. However, there is no need to be concerned because these restrictions only affect users with Turkish IP addresses.
I’ll walk you through the process of changing your Turkish IP address using a VPN program in detail. As a result, you will have free access to adult sites in Turkiye.
How to watch porn in Turkiye with a VPN
To understand how a VPN connection works, we can imagine it as a secure tunnel that protects our data traffic. The VPN tunnel encrypts our internet traffic and routes it to a remote VPN server. Our data is decrypted and delivered to its intended destination once it arrives at the server.
A connection like this provides us with two advantages. First, it assigns us a new IP address based on the VPN server’s location. Second, it shields us from third-party surveillance.
If you want to learn more about how VPNs work, check out our “What is a VPN?” article.
As the restriction on adult websites in Turkiye only applies to users with Turkish IP addresses, all we need to overcome these restrictions is a reliable VPN service. We will change our Turkish IP address by connecting to VPN servers in a country where pornographic content is available.
Let’s go over the steps we’ll take to change our Turkish IP address.
Choosing a VPN for watching porn in Turkiye
If we want to watch adult content without buffering, the VPN service we choose must have fast servers. As a result, using a random VPN service may result in poor performance and a waste of money.
Furthermore, we know that some VPN programs have recently been blacklisted in Turkiye. As a result, we’ll need to find a VPN program that works in the country.
In my presentation, I will use VeePN, which I personally tested to operate smoothly in Turkey and am pleased with its performance. My speed test with VeePN’s “Netherlands” servers yielded an excellent result of 328.96 Mbps. With this speed, it is possible to watch any videos in high quality without buffering issues.
Acquiring the VPN
Now that we’ve decided on the VPN we’ll use to change our IP address, the next step is purchasing the VPN service. Simply follow the steps outlined below to accomplish this.
- Visit the official website of VeePN, which works flawlessly in Turkiye.
- Select a plan and click the “Continue” button to move on to the payment stage.
- Depending on your needs, you can add or skip the other features offered by VeePN.
- Enter your email address and complete the purchase by selecting one of the payment options.
When your payment is processed, your login details will be emailed to the address you provided.
App installation
We now have a VeePN account. VeePN supports up to ten simultaneous connections on a single account and has a broad library of applications. This means you can use VeePN on all of your devices, as shown in the figure below.

Let’s look at the steps we need to do to install the VeePN app on our device.
- Go back to VeePN’s main website.
- From the “VPN apps” menu, search for and download the VPN application that is compatible with your device.
- Begin the installation by double-clicking on the downloaded file and follow instructions.
Connecting to the VPN server
Now that our VPN app is ready to use, we simply need to connect to the VPN server we selected. To overcome restrictions in Turkiye, we will connect to VeePN’s Netherlands servers and get a Dutch IP address.
- Launch the VeePN app that you have installed.
- Log in to the app using your email address and password.
- Choose the “Netherlands” server from the list in the “VPN” menu.

Once your connection is established, the power button will turn green. This implies that your virtual location has been changed to the Netherlands, and you can now freely access all pornographic websites.
Watching porn in Turkiye
We should now be able to access adult sites in Turkiye, in theory. However, without testing, we cannot be certain that our VPN connection is effective. As a result, there is only one thing to do. Let’s try our luck with Pornhub.

With a VPN connection, we can freely visit Pornhub, as demonstrated above. If you can’t access some websites with a Dutch IP (for example, some US-based websites), you can always connect to another VeePN server.
VPNs for watching porn in Turkiye (3 Alternatives)
VeePN is my preferred VPN service due to its excellent performance and reasonable pricing. However, Turkey has a reputation for strict censorship, so it won’t be surprising if a working VPN service is blocked one day. In the previous version of this article, for example, I recommended Surfshark to you. The service is currently restricted in Turkiye.
As a result, I decided to compile a list of alternative VPN providers for watching porn in Turkiye. Of course, I’ve already tested the performance of these services to ensure they won’t let you down.
I’ll introduce you to ExpressVPN, which is always a safe bet and PlanetVPN, which offers free service.
ExpressVPN
If you require a VPN service, ExpressVPN is always a good choice. In addition, the company stands out as a dependable choice for watching porn in Turkiye. ExpressVPN provides worldwide coverage with thousands of servers in 105 different countries. Of course, ExpressVPN’s service area includes porn-friendly European and American countries.

In terms of speed, a connection to ExpressVPN’s Netherlands servers provided me with a download speed of 346.48 Mbps. As you are aware, a steady download speed of 25 Mbps is all that is required for a buffer-free 4K streaming session.
ExpressVPN, while a dependable and fast choice, does have a drawback. It is more expensive than the other alternatives on our list. Additionally, the number of simultaneous connections allowed on a single account is limited to five. If money isn’t an issue, you can get started with ExpressVPN for prices starting at $6.67 per month.
PlanetVPN
As for the final option, I’d like to recommend PlanetVPN, which offers an average performance at a reasonable price. PlanetVPN has servers in 60 different countries, providing decent coverage. Furthermore, PlanetVPN offers a free version, allowing you to test the service before purchasing it.
My speed test results show that PlanetVPN offers users sufficient download speeds. I received a download speed of 63.62 Mbps from the company’s Netherlands server.

The following is PlanetVPN’s main advantage over others: PlanetVPN offers a free version. You can also use your PlanetVPN account for up to ten different devices and get live support seven days a week. If you are happy with the features of PlanetVPN, you can begin using it for a monthly fee of $1.99.

FAQs about watching porn in Turkiye
In this section, I’ll answer frequently asked questions about the restrictions on adult websites in Turkiye, as well as the use of VPNs.
Adult websites are prohibited in Turkiye because authorities deem them harmful to the family structure. This restriction is imposed on all users with Turkish IP addresses. As a result, you cannot watch porn through Turkish internet service providers.
Because the restrictions in Turkiye are enforced via IP addresses, the solution is to change the IP address. To accomplish this, we will use a VPN service to connect to VPN servers in countries where adult content is available.
No law in Turkiye prohibits adult content as long as it falls within internationally accepted boundaries. Pornography production is also legal in Turkiye. These restrictions are imposed by the Information and Communication Technologies Authority (ICTA), not by a court decision.
Summing up the article
Watching porn can be difficult within Turkiye’s boundaries. All of the popular adult websites are restricted and finding an accessible adult website is practically impossible. I demonstrated how to use VPN services to help you get around these restrictions.
These restrictions, as we discovered, only apply to users with Turkish IP addresses. You can quickly change your IP address and watch porn in Turkiye by connecting to a VPN server in a porn-friendly country (I recommend connecting to the Netherlands, Moldova, Switzerland, etc).
Finally, I presented three different VPN services to you. VeePN was my first choice because of its lightning-fast performance and reasonable pricing. ExpressVPN and PlanetVPN are all viable options with unique benefits.
