Air freight to Turkey: frequently asked questions

How much does air freight to Turkey cost?+
Air cargo is priced by chargeable weight (the greater of actual and volumetric weight), urgency and destination fees. Approximate ranges from the current service: Small packages: $400 – $800. Final rate confirmed within one business day. Large cargo: custom pricing on request.
How long does air freight to Turkey take?+

Which airports in Turkey does Interworld Freight serve?+

What documents are required for air freight to Turkey?+
Turkey requires the air waybill, a commercial invoice and a packing list, declared to the Ministry of Trade's customs administration through the BILGE system. KDV (VAT) is 20% since July 2023, and the EU-Turkey customs union covers industrial goods. Pharmaceuticals and perishables also need approval from TİTCK or the Ministry of Agriculture, which we confirm when you quote. We prepare all three for you, and any permits restricted commodities need are confirmed when you quote.
Is air or ocean freight better for shipping to Turkey?+
Air to Istanbul (IST) fits urgent, high-value or temperature-sensitive cargo and small volumes; ocean into Mersin, Ambarlı or İzmir suits larger loads, with LCL generally from 2 to 15 CBM and a 20ft FCL above that. KDV of 20% applies on either mode. Consolidating suppliers in Miami keeps the shipment to a single declaration. Many clients combine both: tell us your deadline and we quote the best mix.
Are there direct air freight routes to Turkey?+
Yes. Direct and high-frequency routes from major U.S. cities such as Miami, New York, and Houston connect to Istanbul Airport (IST) and onward to Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) and İzmir (ADB).
