The Basics
What is the Inward Processing Authorization Certificate (DİİB)?
The Inward Processing Authorization Certificate is a Ministry of Trade support instrument that lets you source the raw materials used in export production without paying taxes — instead, you post collateral that is refunded later — and free from quota and surveillance restrictions.
The certificate gives exporters a financial advantage through tax exemptions, plus further conveniences by waiving trade-policy measures.
It is issued by the Ministry of Trade within the framework of the relevant legislation, with different durations and special terms depending on the sector. It offers a significant advantage in international trade.
Important Note
The Inward Processing Permit (Dİİ) granted by the customs authorities is a separate procedure. It should not be confused with the DİİB.
