In this period of rapid growth of e-export, logistics processes are of great importance for individuals and businesses wishing to send products from Turkey to England.
The new regulations that emerged after England's departure from the European Union (Brexit), customs procedures, and cost planning now require more information and care.

In this content, we address all stages of international cargo shipping from Turkey to England step by step, blending with the experiences of Pratikargo.

Preparation for Shipping: Product and Document Check

To ensure the smooth progress of the cargo shipping process, the following preparations must be made in the first step:

• The compliance of the products to be shipped with the UK customs rules must be checked.

• The weight and dimensions of the products should be calculated and packaging should be planned accordingly.

• An invoice and content list should be prepared for commercial shipments.

• For shipments falling under the ETGB (Electronic Trade Customs Declaration), the limit (150 kg / 15,000 Euros) should be checked.

Pratikargo offers you consultancy at the forefront of this process, from document preparation to product classification.

Determining the Shipping Method: Air, Land, or Sea?

The method of transport should be selected according to the balance of speed and cost for cargo shipments to England.

• Air Cargo: This is the quickest solution. It is suitable for urgent and lightweight shipments.

• Land Transport: It can be used within Europe but is more complicated for England due to customs crossings.

• Sea Transport: It offers an advantage for bulky products, but the delivery time is long.

Pratikargo determines the most suitable transport alternative based on the weight of your shipment, delivery date, and your budget, and provides you with an offer.

Customs Processes and Taxation

For products sent to England, the following procedures stand out after Brexit:

• An EORI number must be obtained in the name of the sending company.

• The shipment should be planned according to whether the recipient has a VAT (Value Added Tax) obligation.

• The commercial invoice must accurately list the product description, unit price, total amount, and country of origin information.

Pratikargo protects you from common mistakes in the UK customs processes; it provides expert support for EORI applications, invoice checks, and transit documents.

Package Preparation and Labeling Standards

For shipments via Amazon, eBay, or direct B2C, package preparation should be paid special attention to:

• Each product must be packaged in a way that it will not be damaged during transport.

• Secondary packaging is necessary for fragile, liquid, or products in special categories.

• The shipment label must be affixed legibly to the outside of the package.

Pratikargo eliminates acceptance issues by providing packaging and labeling services compatible with Amazon FBA or similar platforms.

Delivery Time and Tracking Process

• The delivery time for air cargo from Turkey to England typically ranges from 2 to 5 business days.

• For sea shipping, this time can be between 20 to 30 days.

• Post-delivery notifications to the recipient, sharing of tracking numbers, and customer service processes are important.

Pratikargo provides its clients with live updates through shipment tracking systems and continues to offer support even after delivery.
