IOR is a customs term for the entity responsible for:

  • Adhering to all local laws and regulations for imported goods.
  • Submitting accurate customs paperwork and declarations.
  • Paying all applicable import duties and taxes.

Import regulations vary widely by country, and the term “Importer of Record” may not be explicitly defined in local customs codes. Importing goods involves numerous legal obligations, including the payment of duties, origin verification, and compliance with specific regulations. This often requires import licenses, customs registration, and financial guarantees.

The importer, or Importer of Record (IOR), is fully responsible for all customs-related matters. If your company lacks a physical presence in an importing country like Turkey, GCE Logistics offers cost-effective IOR or Exporter of Record services to streamline your import process.
