Amendment to Turkey’s 2026 Import Quota and Tariff Quota Rules
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This amendment updates Turkey’s 2026 tariff quota list for selected imported goods. It sets zero customs duty within defined quota limits for several specialty chemicals, natural resins, a catalyst containing titanium oxide and tungsten trioxide, and certain certified aluminum alloy plates used in the aerospace industry. Importers and manufacturers using these inputs should check whether their products match the listed customs codes, technical descriptions, and quota periods. The benefit is limited by total annual quantities and maximum quantities per allocation, so companies may need to act early and document end use where required.
