Freight forwarding in Turkey: frequently asked questions

What does a freight forwarder in Turkey do?+
A freight forwarder in Turkey coordinates the movement of your cargo through Turkish ports, airports, and customs, handling ocean, air, and road transport, documentation, GTİP tariff classification, and clearance with Türkiye Gümrük. Interwf manages the entire chain so your goods move between Turkey and the Americas, EU, or Asia without you dealing with each carrier or broker separately. Turkish imports are declared electronically, and the importer pays customs duty where applicable plus VAT (KDV), whose general rate is 20%.
How much does freight forwarding to or from Turkey cost?+
Cost depends on mode (ocean, air, or road), volume, weight, origin and destination, and customs requirements. Ocean FCL is the most economical for full loads, air freight suits urgent or high-value cargo, and LCL fits smaller shipments. Contact our Turkey desk for an itemized quote billed in USD. Air freight is charged on chargeable weight, the greater of actual and volumetric weight (length × width × height in cm ÷ 6,000).
Can you handle customs clearance with Türkiye Gümrük?+
Yes. We prepare documentation, classify goods under the correct GTİP code, and coordinate clearance with Turkish Customs on both import and export. We also structure shipments to use EU-Turkey Customs Union duty-free treatment for industrial goods where eligible. The EU-Turkey Customs Union has applied to industrial goods since 1996, and an A.TR movement certificate proves free circulation status.
Do you offer warehousing together with freight forwarding in Turkey?+
Yes. We integrate bonded (antrepo) and free-zone warehousing with forwarding, so cargo can be stored with deferred duties, repacked or labeled, and forwarded or re-exported under one accountable partner. An antrepo is a Turkish customs warehouse where goods stay under customs control without paying duty or VAT until they are released for free circulation or re-exported.
Which Turkish ports and airports do you use?+
For ocean freight we work through Ambarlı (Istanbul), Mersin, Asyaport, and the Aegean terminals at İzmir/Aliağa and Gemlik. For air freight we use Istanbul Airport (IST), Sabiha Gökçen (SAW), and İzmir Adnan Menderes (ADB), matching the gateway to your cargo and route. Ambarlı and Mersin are among Turkey's main container ports, and Istanbul Airport (IST) is its largest air cargo gateway.
