A product name is not enough; composition, function, manufacturing method and presentation must be assessed together. Technical facts, the commercial scenario and current regulations should be assessed together.
What is a tariff code?
The customs tariff position identifies goods within the international classification system. Türkiye's 12-digit structure opens the door to duties and trade-policy measures.
What information is needed?
Commercial names can cover many products, so classification must rely on objective technical characteristics.
- Materials and composition
- Main function and place of use
- Operating principle
- Assembled or unassembled presentation
Common risks
Copying a supplier code, using only keyword search or placing intended use ahead of technical structure can lead to incorrect classification.
How to secure the decision
Create a technical file and decision rationale for each product family. Obtain expert review for uncertain or high-risk products.
