One of the frequently asked questions by entrepreneurs who want to send products from Turkey to Amazon's warehouses is this: “Can I send products to Amazon with micro-export?”
Our answer is clear: Yes, it is possible to send to Amazon using micro-export with the right planning and method.
As Pratikargo, we have been providing professional support for years to accelerate and facilitate our customers' micro-export processes.
In this article, we detail what micro-export is, the advantages of the ETGB, and how it can be applied in sending products from Turkey to Amazon.

What is Micro Export?

Micro export is a type of export made from Turkey to abroad that stays within certain limits.
These limits are as follows:

• Weight: Should not exceed 150 kg

• Value: Should not exceed 15,000 Euros (approximately 500,000 TL)

In micro-export, a simplified customs procedure called Electronic Commerce Customs Declaration (ETGB) is used.
This allows for faster, cheaper, and less paperwork for exports.

Can Products Be Sent to Amazon with Micro Export?

Micro-export is particularly advantageous for sellers wanting to send products to Amazon, especially for first shipments.
This is because shipments can be made without the need for traditional export procedures for small volume and low-value batches.
As Pratikargo, we provide all necessary support for our customers to benefit from the ETGB in Amazon FBA shipments.

What Are the Advantages of ETGB?

Speed and Ease

ETGB eliminates the requirement to prepare a customs declaration.
This allows for faster processing with less paperwork.

Low Cost

Compared to traditional export, customs broker and some processing costs are removed.
It offers a more economical option in conjunction with the affordable solutions prepared by Pratikargo.

Ease of Documentation

In ETGB, only a commercial or proforma invoice, a packing list, and shipping information are sufficient.
As Pratikargo, we provide direct support to our customers in preparing these documents.

Tracking via E-Government

Your shipment can be easily tracked via e-Government, thus the process proceeds transparently.

Limits of Micro Export and Considerations

Micro-export may not be suitable for every shipment.
For shipments over 150 kg and 15,000 Euros, traditional export procedures are applied.
Additionally, some product groups (hazardous materials, restricted products) cannot be sent under ETGB.
Pratikargo analyzes whether your shipments are compliant with ETGB in advance and guides you correctly.

Experience and Recommendations

• In your first shipments, be sure to conduct a test shipment with ETGB to learn the process.

• Prepare your documents completely and accurately; the information on the invoice and shipping details must match exactly.

• Don’t forget to comply with the labeling and packaging standards required by Amazon for FBA.

• By working with Pratikargo, you can complete the ETGB process in the fastest and most accurate way.

Conclusion: Easy and Economical Shipping with ETGB

For sellers wanting to send products from Turkey to Amazon warehouses, micro-export and ETGB provide great convenience.
As long as you stay within the correct limits, you can expand abroad without experiencing the time and cost burdens of traditional export.

As Pratikargo, we assist you in completing your shipments smoothly, quickly, and at an affordable cost by benefiting from the ETGB.
