Product Liability

"What is the product liability framework in Turkey?"

Quick Answer

Manufacturers, importers, and suppliers are liable for defective products. Liability is strict for manufacturers. Consumer protection law provides additional remedies.

Scope and Legal Distinctions

Product safety obligations and civil liability for damage require assessment of the product, defect and responsible operator. B2B supply terms do not remove every mandatory safety duty.

What to Check in Practice

Preserve technical documentation, batch records, warnings, incident evidence and recall steps; distinguish contract remedies from third-party damage claims.
