Customs Consultancy

We plan your customs processes on the Türkiye–Montenegro trade route and coordinate everything from declaration to delivery.


For investors bringing goods into Montenegro, exporting from here, or moving with a vehicle and household goods, customs is one of the most technical links in the chain. The Free Trade Agreement between Türkiye and Montenegro, in force since 2010, and Montenegro’s CEFTA membership deliver real cost advantages when transactions are structured correctly — while a wrong classification or a missing certificate of origin means unnecessary tax and delay. MGT Montenegro manages the process on your behalf, working with licensed customs agents.


Who is this service for?

  • Importers and e-commerce businesses regularly bringing goods from Türkiye to Montenegro.
  • Producers planning to manufacture in Montenegro and sell to the region (CEFTA) and the EU market.
  • People relocating with a vehicle and household goods who want to understand exemption conditions.
  • Entrepreneurs importing equipment and products when opening a restaurant, shop or hotel.
  • Companies handling temporary imports (fairs, site equipment, yachts/boats).

Scope — What’s included?

  • Import-export advisory: cost and procedure planning before the transaction
  • Tariff classification: correct HS code determination and tax calculation (customs duty, VAT, excise where applicable)
  • Origin and FTA advantage: correct use of the EUR.1 movement certificate and rules of origin
  • Declaration coordination: running the declaration process with a licensed customs agent
  • Vehicle imports: eligibility check (age/emissions), taxes and registration steps
  • Household goods and relocation: assessment of exemption conditions and document preparation
  • Specially regulated products: guidance on goods requiring extra permits/certificates (food, cosmetics, electronics)
  • Temporary import and bonded warehousing: time-limited procedures and storage solutions

Why with MGT?

  • We know both countries: we connect the supply and paperwork on the Türkiye side with the practice on the Montenegro side, from one hand.
  • Integrated service: a customs process designed together with company formation, accounting and tax planning lowers your total cost.
  • Realistic information: rates and procedures can change with legislation; we verify the current position together before the transaction — verified facts, not promises.

Process — How we work

  1. Initial assessment. We take your product/vehicle/goods details and map out the taxes and procedures.
  2. Documentation. We complete the invoice, certificate of origin, transport and permit documents together.
  3. Declaration and follow-up. We run the declaration with a licensed customs agent and track the process.
  4. Delivery and beyond. We follow through to delivery and integrate the transaction into your accounting records.

Frequently asked questions

Are goods from Türkiye to Montenegro subject to customs duty?
Thanks to the Free Trade Agreement in force between Türkiye and Montenegro since 2010, many products within its scope enjoy duty advantages with a certificate of origin (EUR.1). Import VAT is payable separately; we clarify the position for your specific product together.
Can I bring my own car to Montenegro?
It is possible; however, rules such as vehicle age, emission standard and the registration procedure apply and may change with legislation. We check your vehicle's eligibility before you start.
Do I pay tax on my household goods when relocating?
Exemption conditions exist for personal household goods on relocation; the conditions depend on your situation and the legislation. We coordinate the paperwork and declaration on your behalf.
