For certain overland movements between Europe and destinations beyond Türkiye, the country can become a critical transit and handover stage. The exact requirements depend on the origin, destination, animal status, route and current veterinary and customs procedures.
Potential planning issues
- Transit veterinary requirements and animal health documentation.
- Customs transit procedures and the responsible agent or declarant.
- Suitability of the intended entry and exit border points.
- Whether the originating transporter can continue through the required territory.
- Controlled transporter or vehicle handover where a change is necessary.
- Rest, staging and welfare arrangements during a long-distance movement.
LIVE REQUIREMENTS
Türkiye route information should be verified for each actual movement.
Regulatory and border arrangements are time-sensitive. 7SF evaluates the proposed movement against the requirements and partner resources available when the journey is being planned.
