Overview
Customs law covers the customs, foreign trade and foreign exchange legislation applied to the import and export of goods. Aygörmez Law Office advises importers, exporters and other parties to customs procedures on legal matters in this field.
Our office reviews whether the acts of the authorities comply with the legislation and, where they do not, first files a correction request or an objection with the administration. If that does not resolve the matter, we bring actions before the tax courts and appeal judgments to the Council of State (Danıştay); we also assess criminal complaints filed under Anti-Smuggling Law No. 5607 and prepare the defense.
