Turkish goods are in constant demand in Russia. Their cost is comparable to the cost of Chinese goods, and the quality is incomparably better. Fur coats, jeans, sheepskin coats, consumer goods are exported from there in large quantities. And since the Turkish customs is one of the ten best European ones, the process of customs clearance for exported goods is automated there as much as possible.
Instructions
Step 1
If you are traveling to Turkey as a tourist, then you can take gifts and personal belongings from this country in an amount of no more than 70 kg in the luggage compartment and 20 kg in hand luggage. Excess weight will need to be paid for.
Step 2
It is forbidden to export jewelry if they have not been purchased for the exchanged currency. To confirm the purchase, you need to present the relevant certificate. So, if you buy jewelry from the market, then you may have problems with their transportation. It is forbidden to transport antiques, weapons, drugs, many medicines. Therefore, if you liked a carpet that would become an excellent interior decoration in an oriental style, then you will need to present a certificate of purchase at customs, as well as a certificate from the museum that the carpet is not an antique item.
Step 3
There are “green” and “red” corridors at Turkish customs. Those who have declared all the goods in writing go through the “red”, and those who do not have the goods that need to be declared can go through the “green”. This is the so-called implicit form of registration of goods.
Step 4
In the "green" corridor, customs officials have the right to verbally interview citizens, demand the provision of proof of ownership, conduct an inspection within the framework of the norms established by law using technical means.
Step 5
On board the aircraft, you can take drinks that you purchase in duty-free shops at the airport itself, but no more than 1 liter. Moreover, it is impossible to open containers on board in which liquids are packaged. You can carry goods purchased in Turkey in your carry-on baggage if you present receipts for them and if they are packed in plastic bags. But you cannot open these packages on board either, if you do not want them to be confiscated. Medicines must be accompanied by a certificate or prescription in the name of the person delivering it.
