Tariff Classification
"How are goods classified for customs purposes in Turkey?"
Quick Answer
Turkey uses the Harmonized System (HS) for classification. Correct classification determines duty rates, trade policy measures, and required documentation.
Scope and Legal Distinctions
Classification follows the goods' objective characteristics and the applicable tariff rules. A supplier's suggested code or product name is not sufficient evidence on its own.
What to Check in Practice
Keep composition, function, drawings and technical specifications; assess duties, trade measures and product-control obligations after choosing the code.
