The articles, guides, figures and answers on this website are general information about counterfeiting and the enforcement of intellectual property rights in Türkiye. They are not legal advice and do not take your situation into account. Reading them, or contacting us, does not create a client relationship or an engagement. Laws, fees, deadlines and the practice of customs offices and courts change, so a page may be out of date when you read it. Please talk to us, or to a lawyer of your choice, before acting on anything you read here.

Sources

Figures on the counterfeit trade come from OECD/EUIPO, Mapping Global Trade in Fakes 2025: Global Trends and Enforcement Challenges, OECD Publishing, Paris, as stated next to each number. Where a page says so, they come from earlier editions of that series. Figures on seizures in Türkiye come from the sources named on the page in question. We reproduce the figures as published and do not adjust them. Where we quote a law, the official text in the Resmî Gazete prevails over our summary.
