Simplifying Customs & Logistics Processes
Importing European window and door systems can result in delays, unexpected costs, and project schedule disruptions if customs and logistics processes are not managed correctly. For this reason, it is critical that these processes are handled in alignment with a project’s technical specifications, commercial structure, and delivery timeline.
Within European window & door systems projects, we manage customs and logistics end to end—providing a transparent, controlled, and predictable import structure at every stage. Through proper planning and coordination, we shorten delivery times, minimize operational risks, and support projects in progressing according to plan.
How We Manage the Process
End-to-End Customs Management
We manage the entire customs process for European-sourced window and door systems from initial planning through final clearance. This includes pre-shipment preparation, coordination with customs brokers, and active follow-up during the clearance stage. By maintaining control at every step, we reduce uncertainty, prevent bottlenecks, and ensure the import process progresses smoothly.
GTIP Classification & Regulatory Compliance
GTIP (Customs Tariff Statistics Position) is the Turkish implementation of the international Harmonized System (HS Code), used globally to classify products based on their material, function, and intended use.
For European window & door systems, accurate HS Code classification is essential to determine applicable customs duties, ensure regulatory compliance, and avoid delays or penalties during customs clearance. Recognized by more than 170 countries, the HS Code system enables standardized and efficient international trade.
We ensure precise HS Code classification for each product, fully aligned with current regulations—eliminating compliance risks and maintaining predictable import costs.
Documentation & Paperwork Management
Importing European window and door systems requires documentation that is both technically accurate and fully compliant with local regulations. We prepare, review, and coordinate all required documents—including commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates, and customs declarations—ensuring consistency and accuracy across the entire process. This approach minimizes clearance delays and reduces the need for revisions.
Time & Cost Efficiency
Through structured planning and proactive coordination, we reduce waiting periods, eliminate avoidable expenses, and optimize total landed cost. Clear visibility into costs at each stage enables project teams to plan budgets accurately and avoid last-minute financial surprises.
Reliability & Predictability
By consolidating customs, documentation, and logistics management into a single, controlled workflow, we provide a predictable import structure. Our partners can focus on their core operations with confidence—knowing that timelines, costs, and regulatory requirements are clearly defined and consistently managed.
In Summary
This approach enables home builders, contractors, and construction firms to focus on project execution without being burdened by customs- or logistics-related uncertainty when sourcing European window & door systems. Clear delivery schedules, predictable costs, and fully compliant processes simplify site planning, accelerate implementation, and reduce revision risks.
Ensuring that European-standard window and door systems are delivered on time, securely, and without complications results in greater control for decision-makers, smoother workflows for project teams, and more reliable outcomes for project owners.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I place my order for European window & door systems?
To ensure smooth production, shipping, and customs coordination, orders should be placed at least 12-14 weeks in advance. This timeline allows sufficient time for manufacturing, documentation preparation, logistics planning, and customs clearance—helping avoid delays and maintain predictable project schedules.
What risks can arise from incorrect HS Code (GTIP) classification?
Incorrect HS Code classification can lead to additional duties, penalties, extended clearance times, or even shipment holds. For European window & door systems, accurate classification is critical for both cost control and full regulatory compliance.
Why is it important to manage customs and logistics through a single coordinated structure?
When customs and logistics are managed separately, coordination issues, time loss, and unexpected costs can occur. An integrated approach ensures reliable delivery timelines, predictable costs, and smoother site planning throughout the project lifecycle.
