Complete handling of ATR, EUR.1, certificates of origin and T1 documents across import, export and transit operations.
Customs clearance determines the legal identity under which goods enter or leave a country. It is not an extension of transport but the decision point that sets both cost and transit time. Edora Global Trade handles import and export clearance, origin and movement documents, and the transit, bonded warehouse and inward processing regimes in house. Three things decide a declaration: tariff classification, customs value and origin — and all three should be settled before shipment.
| Element | What it determines | If it is wrong |
|---|---|---|
| Tariff classification | Duty rate, VAT, licensing and inspection obligations | Penalties, additional assessment, goods held |
| Customs value | The base on which duty is calculated | Assessment and interest on post-clearance audit |
| Origin | Preferential rates, trade defence measures | Full tariff, anti-dumping duty, preference lost |
Origin is the one most often confused. The country of dispatch and the country of origin are not the same thing. Not everything shipped from Türkiye is of Turkish origin, and being in free circulation does not confer origin either — the distinction is set out on our Türkiye page.
| Regime | What it does | When |
|---|---|---|
| Transit | Goods cross without being imported | The final destination is another country |
| Bonded warehouse | Duty paid as goods are withdrawn | Slow-moving or high-duty products |
| Inward processing | Inputs enter with duty suspended, finished goods leave | Production for export |
| Temporary admission | Goods stay for a period and return | Exhibitions, testing, rented equipment |
Most delays arise not at customs but in the handover between the carrier and the customs broker: each waits for a document from the other and nobody owns the process. Because transport, clearance and warehousing run as one flow here, that handover does not exist — it is also the structure our DDP import solutions rest on.
The party lodging the declaration — the importer or exporter. The code on the supplier’s invoice is not binding and may not match the local subheading; it has to be verified for each product.
No. A.TR shows that goods are in free circulation within the EU–Türkiye customs union, not where they come from. Where origin matters, a separate proof such as EUR.1 is issued.
Yes. Where the final destination is another country the goods travel under a transit regime and no customs debt or import VAT arises. It is the structure most triangular trade relies on.
As a rule on the transaction value, but freight, insurance, royalties and similar elements may have to be included depending on the terms. It is the area where post-clearance adjustments are most common.
The goods must satisfy the origin rules of the relevant agreement and the proof of origin must be properly issued. Without the document the full tariff applies, even to goods that would qualify.
Yes. We run both the transport and the customs formalities for cargo under ADR by road and IMDG by sea. The assessment starts from the safety data sheet and the UN number.
We coordinate them. Several markets require a pre-shipment conformity certificate before the goods can be released, and the sequence has to start before production is finished.
Product description, tariff code if known, country of origin, invoice value, Incoterms rule and destination. With those five we can state the duty burden and the documents required before the goods are made.
Let us settle classification, value and origin before the goods move. Set up correctly, there are no surprises at the border; set up wrongly, the correction always costs more than the check would have.
