Exporting furniture and construction materials to Europe can be made more efficient by managing the right logistics and customs clearance processes. With its rich production capacity and affordable prices, Turkey is an attractive supply point for importers in the European market. However, knowing the right transportation and customs clearance processes ensures that this process runs smoothly. At Vermilion Foreign Trade, we guide you through the process of transporting furniture and construction materials from Turkey to Europe. Here are the steps you need to know for importers in Europe when moving products from Turkey:

  1. Overview of Sourcing Furniture and Building Materials from Turkey

Turkey has a wide range of furniture and construction materials for the European market. Exporting furniture from Turkey offers quality, stylish and affordable options for European consumers. Likewise, building materials supplied for the construction industry (drywall, tile, profiles, parquet, etc.) are in great demand. However, there are some important steps to consider when transporting these products.

  1. Considerations in the Transportation and Logistics Process

During the transportation process from Turkey to Europe, the right logistics methods need to be chosen to ensure safe and timely delivery of products. There are different options such as road transport, maritime transport and intermodal transport.

Road Transportation

Road transportation between Turkey and Europe is one of the most convenient and fastest options, especially for furniture and construction materials. It is very important to work with regularly monitored and experienced logistics companies for the safe transportation of products. In this process, Vermilion Foreign Trade professionally manages all customs clearance and logistics processes by providing safe transportation services to its customers.

Sea Transportation

Especially for large and heavy construction materials, sea transportation can be a more economical alternative. However, time management is very important as the transportation time will be longer than by road. Vermilion provides advantages to its customers with logistics solutions that accelerate the maritime transportation process and reduce costs.

Intermodal Transportation

Intermodal transportation is a transportation model that combines road and sea transportation. This method can be efficient, especially if large quantities of goods are being shipped. When transporting goods from Turkey to Europe, intermodal transportation can provide advantages in terms of both time and cost.

  1. Customs Clearance Process and Import Documents

Customs clearance is an important part of the export process from Turkey to Europe. Failure to do customs clearance correctly can lead to delayed shipments or extra costs. Here are some of the main steps you need to consider in the customs clearance process:

Documents and Permits

There are some basic documents required for the import of furniture and construction materials from Turkey to Europe. These include

Import/export declaration

Certificate of origin, A.TR

Invoice and transportation documents

Customs tax documents are included.

Vermilion Foreign Trade guides you through every step of your customs clearance and import/export procedures. Customs clearance is completed in full compliance with customs procedures in Turkey and Europe.

Customs Duties and VAT

When shipping products to Europe, each country’s customs duty rates may be different. When importing furniture and construction materials from Turkey, it is important to check the tax rates and VAT rates of the products.

  1. Saving Time and Cost in the Transportation Process
