Who Can Import Goods?
Any individual or legal entity with a tax number can import. A tax number is not required for products covered by special agreements (books and other publishing products) or for products permitted for retail sale.
What Is Temporary Import?
Temporary import is a customs regime that allows goods not released for free circulation to be used in the Turkish customs territory with exemption from import duties and to be re-exported in the same condition.
What Does a Customs Broker Do?
A customs broker carries out customs procedures in line with regulations on behalf of importing and exporting companies: they prepare the declaration, collect the required documents and represent the company before the customs authority.
Can You Import Without a Customs Broker?
Customs regulations allow the declaration to be filed by the owner of the goods. However, because HS code classification, document applications and tax calculation require expertise, companies usually carry out import procedures through a customs broker.
Which Documents May Be Required for Import?
Depending on the goods, TSE, TAREKS, an agricultural control certificate, an import licence, a tariff quota or a registration certificate may be required. We file the applications and follow them through to completion.
