T.C. Ticaret Bakanlığı

T.C. Ticaret Bakanlığı is the primary official reference point for customs, foreign trade, passenger-accompanied goods and the temporary entry rules that affect foreign-plated vehicles entering Türkiye. For visitors arriving by road, the Ministry’s passenger-accompanied vehicle guidance and Yabancı Plakalı Taşıt İşlemleri (YPTİ) service are especially important for checking stay periods, vehicle entry records and user eligibility.

Why it matters for a foreign-plated vehicle

An insurance quote request and a customs permission are different processes. Gurbet Kasko can help collect the information needed for insurance quote evaluation, but it does not decide how long a vehicle may remain in Türkiye, who may drive it, whether a power of attorney is sufficient or whether the vehicle meets temporary import conditions. Those points should be checked through T.C. Ticaret Bakanlığı resources before travel or before extending a stay.

How to use this source

Use the Ministry pages when you need to confirm passenger-accompanied vehicle rules, YPTİ records, pre-declaration steps, stay-period questions or customs-related exceptions. Insurance availability, premium and cover are assessed separately by the relevant insurance companies through Özhedef Sigorta Aracılık Hizmetleri’s insurance agency process.
