Exporter Registry Form for Textiles & Ready Made Garments exports to Turkey

Exporters of Textiles & Ready Made Garments to TURKEY are being asked by the Turkish Authorities to complete an Exporter Registry Form. This appears to be a new procedure with effect from 1st January 2009.

When completed, the Form should be certified by the Turkish-British Chamber of Commerce & Industry (TBCCI) and then legalised by the Turkish Consulate in London. This then becomes part of the full form which Turkish Importers must submit to the Turkish Authorities.

A copy of the exporter registry form.doc is attached for you if you need it. The Form should be printed on company letter head paper and signed by either Proprietor, Partner, Director or Company Secretary.

We have looked into this new procedure with HMRC and they tell us they have not been contacted by Turkish Customs and that this new procedure would appear to be a Turkish Internal Market requirement and does not have any bearing on applications for EUR1 or A.TR Certificates for Turkey.
