The customs warehouse is very important for the storage of goods of companies engaged in international transportation during customs procedures. While import and export operations are being performed, the place where the goods waiting at customs are placed for a while so that they can be stored in appropriate conditions until all customs procedures are completed is called a warehouse.

Points to be considered:

Since the goods waiting in the warehouse are commercial goods that have not paid tax, there is no period for them to be kept waiting here. If the goods to be placed in the warehouse are found together with other explosive substances or are of a special nature, such items should be stored in warehouses suitable for the conditions.

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF WAREHOUSES?

We can divide customs warehouses into two as general or private warehouses. Warehouses open for general use can be used by everyone for the placement of goods, while private warehouses are warehouses established only for the purpose of placing goods belonging to the warehouse operator. We can classify general warehouses as types A, B and F, and private warehouses as type C, D and E warehouses.

Type A warehouse is a warehouse where the operator keeps inventory records. In case of any deficiency in the goods placed in the warehouse, the person responsible for paying customs duties is the person and this type of warehouse is defined as a warehouse.

Type B warehouse is the type of warehouse where the use of the goods placed in the warehouse is responsible. In this type of warehouses, the one who uses the warehouse declaration gives. In these warehouses, there is no obligation to protect the goods of the warehouse operator. It is the time when the warehouse management is asked, and the warehouse management only rents the warehouse. Since warehouse stock records are not kept, the white name and documents are based on customs control.

Type C warehouse is a special type of warehouse whose operator and user are the same person and this person is responsible for the goods taken to the warehouse.

Type D warehouse is a special type of warehouse whose operator and user are the same person and which is subject to the customs warehouse regime through registration.

In the type E warehouse type, the operator and the user are the same person. Permission is a special type of warehouse where the provisions of the warehouse regime are applied to the goods even if the right holder does not have a storage place.

Type F warehouse is a type of general warehouse operated by customs authorities.
