Customs and Route Information

For our North Macedonia operations, we utilize the most optimized Balkan routes:

Route Options: Depending on the cargo type and customs status, we use either the Turkey-Greece-North Macedonia line (via İpsala/Bogorodica) or the Turkey-Bulgaria-North Macedonia line.

Customs Clearance: Since North Macedonia is not yet an EU member, we carefully manage the T1/T2 transit declarations and specific customs documents (ATR, EUR.1, etc.) required for trade with Turkey.
