Turkey has scrapped a €30 ($35) duty-free allowance for non-commercial goods purchased from abroad via mail or express cargo, according to a presidential decree published in the official gazette on Wednesday.

The new rule will take effect in 30 days, the decision in the gazette said, adding that duty-free imports will now apply only to medicines and dietary supplements valued at up to €1,500.

The new regulation is likely to affect small personal orders made from popular and cheap shopping sites abroad.

Under previous rules, revised in 2024, the threshold had been lowered to €27 per order, with an additional €3 shipping fee.

Goods shipped to Turkey that are not considered commercial are subject to taxes of 30 percent for EU-origin products and 60 percent for others, while certain items also incur a 20 percent tax.
