Authorised consignee
Also called: izinli alıcı
A trader authorised to receive goods moving under transit at its own premises, ending the transit procedure without presenting the goods at the office of destination. Arrival is notified electronically and goods may not be unloaded until customs permits.
In practice
Authorised consignees cut waiting time for inbound transit but must report discrepancies such as broken seals immediately.
