Every shipment has unique requirements. That’s why we offer three service models tailored to your schedule and budget — so you pay only for what you truly need.
Your shipping cost is shaped by a few core variables. We prepare transparent, tailored quotes with no hidden surprises — here is a clear breakdown of what influences your final price.
Weight and Volume (LDM): Freight rates are calculated based on both the actual weight of your shipment and the deck space (loading meters) it requires.
Customs clearance location: Transporting and clearing cargo at a consolidation hub in Poland or Turkey reduces overall shipping costs, whereas clearance at the final delivery point incurs higher rates.
Trade Direction: Export to Turkey and import from Turkey may vary in price based on current market conditions.
Cargo type: ADR, SENT-monitored, temperature-controlled, or oversized goods are quoted individually.
Self-pickup or self-delivery to/from the consolidation warehouse: Handling local transport on your own helps reduce the overall cost of the service.
Seasonality: Peak demand during specific quarters and around Polish or Turkish holidays can impact space availability and rates.
BAF: 3CARGO publishes the current BAF index at 3cargo.com/baf/
Value-Added Services: We provide a range of customizable add-on services tailored to your operations – such as fixed-window loading/unloading (FIX appointment) or tail-lift vehicle delivery – which are factored directly into your custom offer.
3CARGO does not publish standard rate cards — every quote is prepared individually based on specific shipment details.
Shipping to Turkey is more than just booking a truck. It requires customs clearance, warehousing, extensive documentation, and managing multiple vendors at once. You can handle it all yourself – or hand the entire process over to a single trusted partner.

IMPORT
FROM TURKEY TO POLAND
Flexible Turkey Import Options: We tailor our Turkey import services to your supplier’s workflow. Choose between delivery to our partner warehouse in Istanbul (Muratbey) for export clearance processing, or opt for full door-to-door convenience with direct pickup from your supplier’s facility anywhere in Turkey.
End-to-End Handling from Pickup to Delivery: Once loaded, your freight is transported directly to our Polish hubs in Czechowice-Dziedzice or Piotrków Trybunalski for import customs processing. The 3CARGO customs team manages all paperwork — all we need from you is the commercial invoice and packing list. As soon as clearance is completed, we dispatch the shipment to your facility or final recipient within 48 hours. Overall transit time from Turkey to Poland ranges from 5 to 12 business days, depending on your chosen shipping model.
To ensure smooth cargo transportation between Turkey and Poland, the following documentation is required:
Commercial invoice – the primary document of a commercial transaction
Packing list – containing detailed information on net and gross weight as well as the quantity and type of packaging (unless this data is already included in the commercial invoice)
CMR consignment note – an international transport document confirming the receipt of goods for carriage
EX – an export declaration that enables goods to enter the EU territory
A.TR – a movement certificate that entitles the holder to benefit from a preferential 0% duty rate
CMR consignment note – an international transport document confirming the receipt of goods for carriage
The stamp duty for a power of attorney for a Customs Agency is PLN 17, and the bank account for transfers depends on the type of power of attorney (standing/term-based or one-off).
A customs broker calculates customs duties and taxes based on the value of the goods, transport costs, the customs tariff code (CN/TARIC), country of origin, Incoterms, and applicable duty and tax rates.
EKSPORT
FROM POLAND TO TURKEY
Our export service to Turkey starts right at your doorstep – we pick up the goods from anywhere in Poland, so there is no need for you to drop them off at our facility. The shipment is then brought to our distribution centers in Piotrków Trybunalski or Czechowice-Dziedzice for export clearance. You can use your own customs broker or let 3CARGO’s agency manage it seamlessly under our All-in-One service. We take care of the entire process from start to finish.
Prior to shipping, your consignee in Turkey must designate the customs office responsible for import clearance. Upon arrival at our Turkish warehouse, import procedures are handled promptly, and final delivery to the recipient takes place within 48 hours of completion. Transit times from Poland to Turkey typically range from 5 to 12 business days, depending on the shipping method selected.
To ensure smooth cargo transportation between Poland and Turkey, the following documentation is required:
Commercial Invoice – The foundational document required for any international trade transaction and customs clearance
Packing List – A detailed breakdown of net and gross weights, plus the quantity and type of packaging used, provided these details are not already stated in the commercial invoice.
A.TR Movement Certificate – a customs document that qualifies your shipment for preferential 0% customs duties
EX Document – the official export customs declaration required for shipping goods into Turkey
CMR Waybill – The official international shipping document verifying that goods have been received for transport
The stamp duty fee for authorizing a customs agency is PLN 17. Please note that the specific bank account for payment depends on whether you issue a general (permanent/time-limited) or single-use power of attorney.konto
Single-Use Power of Attorney – The fee must be paid directly to the bank account of the Customs and Tax Office in Czechowice-Dziedzice.
Delivery times vary depending on your chosen shipping method. An express dedicated van typically takes 3–5 days. Full Truckload (FTL) shipments take 6–12 days, while Less than Truckload (LTL) groupage takes 9–12 days, depending on departure schedules and the final destination. All estimated timeframes are calculated door-to-door.
Every shipment requires a commercial invoice, packing list, CMR waybill, and an EX export declaration. If you are shipping industrial goods, we strongly recommend preparing an A.TR movement certificate – a key customs document confirming the goods’ status and granting a preferential 0% duty rate under the EU-Turkey Customs Union. Please note that food products, plants, or animal-derived goods may require additional certificates and specialized documentation.
Yes, we handle bidirectional transport! We seamlessly manage exports from anywhere in Poland to clients across Turkey, as well as inbound imports from Turkish suppliers straight to your warehouse in Poland.
Absolutely! We collect goods from any address in Poland, so there is no need for you to drop off shipments at our warehouse. For imports coming from Turkey, we coordinate pickup directly from your supplier’s location or warehouse anywhere in the country.
The A.TR certificate is a key customs document used in trade between the European Union and Turkey. It confirms the customs status of goods, verifying that they have been legally released for free circulation within either the EU or Turkey, and applies to industrial goods as well as processed agricultural products. While an A.TR certificate is not strictly mandatory, lacking it means the importer must pay the full standard customs duty rates applicable to third countries—making it an essential document for the vast majority of shipments on this route. It is issued by a customs agency at the request of the exporter, or by the exporter themselves if they hold approved exporter status, and must be validated by the customs office. You don’t have to worry about the paperwork—our AEOF-certified customs agency can obtain the A.TR certificate on your behalf using a power of attorney.
Yes, dangerous goods are fully supported for both export to and import from Turkey. We rely on a vetted network of certified carriers, take care of all necessary ADR documentation, and handle the full customs process for hazardous cargo. Please note that we do not handle Class 1 (explosives) or Class 7 (radioactive materials).
Yes, we provide temperature-controlled transport for your goods all the way between Poland and Turkey, in both directions. Our carriers operate a modern refrigerated fleet equipped with continuous temperature monitoring to ensure product integrity. Whether you are exporting perishables from Poland to Turkey or importing temperature-sensitive cargo from Turkey back to Poland, we’ve got you covered.
Cargo consolidation means combining your shipment with goods from other senders into a single truck, allowing you to pay exclusively for the exact space you occupy instead of renting a full vehicle. In logistics, this is called groupage transport. Getting started is easy: just send us an inquiry with the basics – where from, where to, what it is, and how much. After confirming the details and placing your order, our forwarder will schedule your shipment for the next available departure and lock in your pickup date.
Leave that to us—we’ve got it covered. Operating our own AEOF-certified customs agency, we handle import and export clearances directly at our headquarters in Czechowice-Dziedzice and our branch in Rokszyce near Piotrków Trybunalski. All you need to do is provide the necessary documents (invoice, packing list, CMR) and grant us power of attorney to represent you before customs. From submitting the declaration to settling all fees, our licensed customs agent handles the rest.
Every customer gets a dedicated forwarder who monitors your shipment every step of the way. Whenever you want an update, just call or message us to find out exactly where your cargo is and when it will arrive. Instead of staring at a live map, you have a real person watching your shipment and stepping in the moment anything needs attention.
We handle shipments of any size, starting from just a single carton. For LTL groupage transport, space is billed by actual or volumetric weight, meaning you only pay for the exact room your cargo takes up. Not sure how to figure out your shipping costs? Our forwarder will gladly calculate it for you.
