Commodity certificate A.TR.

Commodity certificate A.TR is issued by the exporting customs authority in the context of trade between the EU and Turkey of goods included in the scope of the Customs Union agreement.

The agreement stipulates that goods in free circulation, i.e. obtained or cleared through customs in the EU or Turkey, may be imported duty free to Turkey or the EU. When the goods are imported to the EU, the importer should submit an import declaration containing a request for preferential tariff treatment and a reference to the A.TR. certificate. The certificate establishes that the goods were in free circulation in the EU or Turkey, but not the origin of the goods. The exporter can apply for preferential treatment using the A.TR. application.

When you receive the A.TR. goods certificate for goods imported from Turkey, you should ensure that the obligatory fields are completed with relevant information and that the certificate is stamped in Field 12, and that the exporter´s signature has been provided in Field 13.
