Turkey's First Authorized Receiver Application From Mars

Jul 10 2020

Mars Logistics carried out the first Authorized Receiver application in Turkey under the scope of its YYS (Authorized Obligation Certificate).

Mars Logistics, which is already actively using the Authorized Sender authority in export, became the first company to use the Authorized Receiver authority in import. The goods belonging to the customer with the YYS certificate arriving at the Mars Logistics Tepeören Logistics Center with a T2 transit declaration, the transit declaration was terminated by Mars Logistics under the status of Authorized Receiver without going to the arrival customs or warehouse, and the import transactions of the item were also carried out by the customer at this facility.

Mars Logistics, which actively uses the Authorized Sender authorization and transfers the vehicle to the border customs office by performing the transactions from the facility that has the Authorized Sender authorization directly instead of customs, aims to provide both cost advantages and time savings to its customers in import transactions. Expressing as the preparation for the future for Mars, Mars Logistics Board Member Gökşin Günhan said, “If the customer has the necessary conditions (YYS-1), they will be able to withdraw the goods faster than our warehouses with Authorized Receiver authority instead of customs or warehouse.

“Import transactions will be faster”

Stating that they aim to realize firsts and add surplus value to customers in accordance with Mars Logistics' leading and innovative vision, Günhan said, “In the normal period, the vehicle had to go to customs or warehouse for unloading and importing operations. In the Authorized Receiver process, we make a notification of arrival to customs via the system, similar to the notification of the YGM to customs. If customs decides to check it in 30 minutes, they come and open the seal themselves and allows the vehicle to be evacuated. If the control decision is not made, we open and unload the vehicle ourselves, and we end the transit process ourselves by entering the unloading results into the customs system. The buyer can open the import declaration and pay taxes and then pull their stuff.”
