Metropole have released a circular on the subject in response to an increase in the number of cases where the Turkish Custom Authority has imposed a fine, particularly in relation to cargo shortages at Turkish ports.
Applicable rules with regard to cargo discrepancies in Turkey can be summarised as follows:
- When performing import formalities, agents apply to the Customs with a declaration form advising the nature, type and quantity of the cargo.
- While dealing with cargo shortage/over-landing cases, the authorities always take into consideration the percentage of discrepancy between the cargo declaration figures and the cargo outturn figures determined as per the custom’s weighbridge/shore figures.

货差导致海关罚款 – 土耳其
近日，Metrolole发布了一则通函，报导了遭到土耳其海关罚款的案件数量有所上升，尤其是在土耳其港口发生的短卸案件。
在土耳其发生货差问题时适用如下规则：
- 办理进口手续时，代理应向海关提交报关单，列明货物的性质、类型和数量等。
- 处理货差问题时，海关通常对报关数量和海关地磅称得的卸货数量之间的货差进行审查。
