Import Regime Decree

Also called: İthalat Rejimi Kararı

The Turkish presidential decree that sets the general rules of the import regime and, in its annexes, the customs duties and additional customs duties applicable to each GTİP by country group. It is republished annually with amendments throughout the year.

In practice

The current version of the decree and its amendments must be checked before quoting Turkish import costs, as additional duties change frequently.
