Import services cover all legal and operational processes from the procurement of a product in international markets to its entry into the Turkish customs territory. With deep experience gained since 2005, Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics manages import procedures with a discipline of cost and time management.
Our company's comprehensive import services are shaped by a preliminary analysis process that begins before the goods even set off. With the power of national capital and our expert staff, we minimize your commercial risks by ensuring full compliance with customs regimes. Thanks to our operational speed, we reduce the waiting times of your goods at customs to the minimum level.
The import services we carry out within Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics span a wide range, from overcoming technical barriers to tax optimization. With our up-to-date automation systems and professional tracking mechanisms, we place your import operations on transparent and reliable ground. Our primary priority is to create a legal armor for your trade across borders.
Import service is the process of nationalizing goods purchased from abroad in accordance with customs legislation. This process refers to the determination of the customs value of the goods, the calculation of taxes, obtaining necessary permits, and ultimately completing the procedures for entry into free circulation.
Professional import support ensures the error-free fulfillment of legal obligations, which is the most complex leg of foreign trade. While providing this service, Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics protects your firm's financial security and operational efficiency. A correctly managed import process provides your business with a great advantage in global competition.
A successful import operation is only possible through a disciplined workflow. Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics carries out process management with a multi-layered control mechanism that keeps every stage under control. The fundamental steps of our import operations consist of:
Legislative compliance audit of commercial documents (invoice, packing list, etc.) before shipment.
Preparation of summary declarations and customs registration upon the arrival of the goods at the port of destination.
Coordination of technical permits and certificates to be obtained from relevant ministries.
Instant tracking of inspection and analysis processes accompanied by our field teams.
Completion of tax payments and approval for the withdrawal of goods from the bonded area.
Our process management approach makes every moment of the operation predictable by eliminating uncertainties. In this way, we prevent unplanned costs and delays, ensuring the continuous progression of your supply chain.
The Customs Tariff Statistics Position (HS Code/GTIP) is the most critical technical detail of imports. This classification, performed according to the chemical, physical, and technical characteristics of products, determines the tax rates to be paid and the restrictions to be followed. Choosing an incorrect code leads to high penal sanctions.
Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics classifies your products in accordance with customs schedules through its expert tariff teams. This technical analysis both zeros legal risks and allows you to benefit at the highest level from customs duty exemptions, if any.
A customs declaration is the official legal statement of the import before the authorities. Thanks to its digital infrastructure, Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics performs declaration preparation processes with high accuracy. Data entry and registration into the system are completed within seconds through our up-to-date automation systems.
Inspection and line-tracking processes, which begin after the registration of the declaration, are monitored at every moment by our professional operation teams. While an instant flow of information regarding the status of transactions is provided to you, all necessary initiatives are carried out before customs administrations for the rapid conclusion of your file.
Accurate planning of import costs is vital for business profitability. Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics presents you with the items of Customs Duty, VAT, SCT, Additional Financial Obligation, and Additional Customs Duty by calculating them while the goods are still in transit.
This financial projection contributes to the correct management of your cash flow. At the same time, legal optimizations in tax amounts to be paid are realized by evaluating advantages such as Free Trade Agreements and the Customs Union.
Foreign trade legislation is a structure that is constantly updated and subject to strict audits. Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics pre-audits the compliance of products to be imported with Product Safety and Inspection (ÜGD) communiqués and rules of institutions such as TSE and the Ministry of Agriculture.
Through our legislative compliance controls, changes in import regime decisions are reflected instantly in your operations. This meticulous audit process completely eliminates legal obstacles that may be encountered at customs gates and the risk of rejection of the goods.
Goods must be kept in a secure area until customs procedures are completed. Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics coordinates warehouse and temporary storage processes within the framework of customs legislation provisions. We ensure that products are stored healthily in these areas.
With our warehouse regime applications, we allow goods to be stored without paying taxes and enable partial imports as needed. This method provides firms with financial flexibility in stock management and tax payments.
Customs administrations may sometimes establish additional tax accruals or administrative fines. Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics provides strong legal and technical support defending your legal rights in such disputes. Our services in appeal and reconciliation processes include:
Legal and technical analysis of additional accrual decisions.
Preparation of correction and appeal petitions to be submitted to customs administrations.
Making the technical defense of the firm in reconciliation commissions.
File preparation support in cases referred to tax courts.
Our determined stance against erroneous practices prevents financial losses for your firm. We aim to certify your justification by managing legal processes with the discipline of customs law.
The best strategy in imports is to prevent problems before they occur. Filiz Customs Brokerage & Logistics periodically audits your import operations with risk analysis models. By examining your past files, we prepare you for a possible post-control audit.
With our preventive consultancy service, we take your firm's customs record under protection. By detecting erroneous practices early, we develop corrective activities and increase your reliability before the customs authority.
