EXPORT AND LOGISTICS PROCESS MANAGEMENT TO RUSSIA – TURU LOGISTICS<\/strong><\/p>\n 1) THE IMPORTANCE OF TURKEY–RUSSIA TRADE<\/strong><\/p>\n Trade between Turkey and Russia reached a strategic level in 2024, exceeding USD 65 billion<\/strong>. Turkey’s exports to Russia stand around USD 8.5 billion<\/strong>, with leading sectors including energy, food, chemicals, and machinery<\/strong>. Due to geopolitical positioning, energy corridor connections, and the development of alternative routes, this corridor has become increasingly critical for logistics operations.<\/p>\n The Russian market presents a complex structure requiring precise management for both large-volume cargo<\/strong> and small-scale partial shipments<\/strong>. Therefore, professional logistics planning, document management, and international regulatory expertise are essential.<\/p>\n At Turu Logistics<\/strong>, we provide integrated transportation solutions for the Turkey–Russia corridor<\/strong> through nearly 30 years of experience — covering road, air, and sea freight<\/strong>. From planning to customs clearance and in-country distribution across Russia, we offer end-to-end logistics support<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 2) EXPORT PROCEDURES TO RUSSIA: DOCUMENTS, REGULATIONS, AND TAXATION<\/strong><\/p>\n For exporters to Russia, proper documentation and declaration management<\/strong> are the most critical steps. Each shipment must include:<\/p>\n The average customs tariff<\/strong> in Russia is 7.8%<\/strong>, which may rise up to 15%<\/strong> for finished goods and 20%<\/strong> for food products. Additionally, 20% VAT<\/strong> is levied on the customs value of imported goods.<\/p>\n At Turu Logistics<\/strong>, we provide expert consultancy in preparing export documentation, verify the accuracy of customs declarations and origin certificates, and accelerate clearance. Through digital archiving<\/strong>, clients can access all shipment documents instantly.<\/p>\n 3) PARTIAL AND FULL TRUCKLOAD TRANSPORT MODELS<\/strong><\/p>\n Freight transport to Russia is planned according to operational capacity and delivery time objectives — mainly under two models: Partial (LTL)<\/strong> and Full Truckload (FTL)<\/strong>. Each model has distinct operational requirements, cost structures, and route management techniques.<\/p>\n A) PARTIAL TRANSPORT (LTL – LESS THAN TRUCKLOAD)<\/strong><\/p>\n LTL transport combines cargo from different exporters within the same vehicle — ideal for shipments that do not fill a full truck.<\/p>\n Key Operational Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Advantages:<\/strong><\/p>\n B) FULL TRUCKLOAD TRANSPORT (FTL – FULL TRUCK LOAD)<\/strong><\/p>\n FTL involves dedicating the entire truck to one customer’s cargo — ideal for large, time-sensitive, or special shipments.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Advantages:<\/strong><\/p>\n Turu Logistics Solutions Include:<\/strong><\/p>\n 4) TRANSPORT ROUTES AND LOGISTICS ALTERNATIVES<\/p>\n The Turkey–Russia logistics network<\/strong> offers multiple transport corridors shaped by geopolitics, weather, and cargo type. Main modes: road, sea, and air<\/strong>, with intermodal transport<\/strong> gaining traction.<\/p>\n ROAD ROUTES<\/strong><\/p>\n Most Turkey–Russia shipments move by road due to flexibility and transit time advantages.<\/p>\n Main Corridors:<\/strong><\/p>\n Operational Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n SEA ROUTES<\/strong><\/p>\n Sea transport<\/strong> is cost-effective for large-volume or containerized cargo.<\/p>\n Main Ports:<\/strong><\/p>\n Advantages:<\/strong><\/p>\n AIR ROUTES<\/strong><\/p>\n Ideal for time-critical or high-value<\/strong> cargo. Specs:<\/strong><\/p>\n Advantages:<\/strong><\/p>\n INTERMODAL & COMBINED TRANSPORT<\/strong><\/p>\n Used when road permits (Dozvola) or border restrictions apply. Example:<\/strong> Turu Logistics Services:<\/strong><\/p>\n 5) RO-RO TRANSPORTATION AND ITS ADVANTAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n Ro-Ro (Roll-on\/Roll-off)<\/strong> is a multimodal system where trucks drive directly onto vessels. Operational Flow:<\/strong><\/p>\n Main Ports:<\/strong><\/p>\n Advantages:<\/strong><\/p>\n Typical Cargo Types:<\/strong><\/p>\n Turu Logistics Ro-Ro Services:<\/strong><\/p>\n 6) RESTRICTED GOODS VIA GEORGIA–RUSSIA ROUTE<\/strong><\/p>\n Due to political and technical constraints, certain goods (military, dual-use, chemicals, sensitive tech) face restrictions via the Georgia–Russia corridor. Turu Logistics monitors restrictions daily and ensures timely alternative routing<\/strong> to prevent delays.<\/p>\n 7) SANCTIONED GOODS & RISK MANAGEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n Due to ongoing international sanctions, certain goods require export licenses or are prohibited for Russia. These include high-tech components, electronics, defense equipment, and chemicals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Incorrect declarations or concealment of origin can lead to severe penalties. 8) WHAT IS “DOZVOLA”? PERMITS AND QUOTAS IN RUSSIA TRANSPORT<\/strong><\/p>\n A Dozvola<\/strong> is an international transport permit allowing carriers to enter certain countries. Each Turkish truck entering Russia requires one. Turu Logistics continuously monitors Dozvola availability, ensuring timely permit issuance and uninterrupted operations.<\/p>\n 9) REGULAR WEEKLY DEPARTURES – ROAD, AIR, AND SEA<\/strong><\/p>\n Consistency and scheduling are vital for exporters. Regular weekly departures allow shipments to move without delay, minimizing stock costs.<\/p>\n Turu Logistics offers:<\/strong><\/p>\n All shipments are tracked in real time via GPS-based systems<\/strong>, with live updates and transparent reporting to clients.<\/p>\n 10) CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXPORTERS<\/strong><\/p>\n The Russian market offers vast trade potential but also complex logistics and regulatory challenges. Success requires precise planning, documentation, route selection<\/strong>, and a reliable logistics partner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Key Recommendations:<\/strong><\/p>\n At Turu Logistics<\/strong>, we provide end-to-end export logistics, customs, and consultancy services<\/strong> for Turkey–Russia trade.
