Anatolia has been the scene of many migration movements throughout history and with the 2011 Syrian crisis, it receives massive mass migration from the region. The terrorist incidents that occurred due to the political turmoil and the authority gap caused by it caused people from the region, especially Syria, to leave their countries to escape from the danger of death. At this point, Turkey is in the position of a country where people fleeing from danger take refuge and host the most refugees. Home to millions of irregular migrants, Turkey has made innovations and regulations in many areas to manage irregular migration. The Covid-19 pandemic, which started to spread all over the world in 2020, also affected irregular migration in Turkey, and there was a significant decrease in irregular migration cases. Thus, in 2020, compared to the previous year, the number of irregular migrants crossing into Greece via the Aegean Sea decreased by 84%, and the number of irregular migrants attempting to cross into Greece decreased by 66%. It is possible to say that migration policies of countries and the street and travel restrictions in Turkey due to the pandemic, had a great impact on this sharp decline in irregular migration. In this study, the recent irregular migration in Turkey will be evaluated and the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, which affected the whole world in 2020, on irregular migration in Turkey will be explained.
