What this heading covers
Cheese and curd
The first six digits are the same in every country that applies the Harmonized System; the twelve-digit breakdown below them is specific to Türkiye. This heading has 5 subheadings and 54 twelve-digit codes (2026 schedule).
This heading sits in chapter 04 (Dairy produce; birds' eggs; natural honey; edible products of animal origin, not elsewhere specified or included). Classification is governed by the official chapter notes: a note can pull goods into the chapter or push them out of it.
Subheadings and tariff codes
The code used on a customs declaration has twelve digits. The list below gives the six-digit subheading first, then the twelve-digit codes underneath it. Opening a code shows its definition and the Turkish import duty rows registered against it.
Official English wording exists only down to the six-digit HS subheading. The twelve-digit breakdowns below it are national lines published by Türkiye in Turkish only, so they are shown here in Turkish — translating them ourselves would put words on a customs code that no authority has approved.

Türkiye import duty rates under this heading
The ranges below are the rates Türkiye applies on import, compiled from the import regime rows registered against the 54 codes under this heading. The HS code itself is identical in every country down to six digits; only these rates and the twelve-digit breakdown are Türkiye's. A range is always calculated within a single column; different country groups are never mixed. The rate that applies to you depends on both the twelve-digit code and the country of origin — open the specific code for the exact value.
The rate becomes an amount as follows: customs duty = customs value (price of the goods + freight to the Turkish border + insurance) × rate. The additional customs duty applies to the same base, not on top of the customs duty. VAT is calculated last, on the customs value plus every tax paid at customs plus the costs incurred up to registration of the declaration.
Customs duty — AB, BK — 43% – 180%
Customs duty — B-HER — 0%
Customs duty — BAE — 36% – 180%
