Logistics & Compliance

How do shipping, customs and compliance for Germany work?

What German buyers need to know before placing a first order.

Turkey and the EU operate under a Customs Union that covers most industrial goods, including knit fabric — shipments accompanied by a valid A.TR movement certificate enter Germany duty-free, with only German import VAT applying at customs (reclaimable for VAT-registered businesses). Road freight from Istanbul to German logistics hubs typically takes 3-5 business days; air freight arrives in 1-2 days for urgent sample or small-batch orders. Invoicing is in EUR with SEPA or wire transfer payment.

FAQ

Wholesale Fleece for Germany — FAQ

Does fleece fabric from Turkey enter Germany duty-free?
Yes. Textile goods qualifying under the EU-Turkey Customs Union enter Germany without import duty when shipped with a valid A.TR movement certificate, which we provide on request with every EU shipment. Standard German import VAT still applies at customs.
How long does fleece fabric take to reach Germany from Istanbul?
Road freight typically takes 3-5 business days to major German logistics hubs. Air freight is available for urgent sample shipments or small batches, arriving in 1-2 days.
What is the minimum order quantity for German buyers?
The same as our global standard: 50 kg per color. In-stock colors ship within 2-5 business days of order confirmation; custom-dyed colors add 5-10 business days.
Do you provide OEKO-TEX documentation for German retailers?
Yes. This fabric is 100% polyester, so the certificate that applies is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I, covering dyeing and finishing at our certified dyehouse partner. We provide the certificate copy and a fibre composition declaration on request. GOTS and BCI apply to our cotton fabrics only.
Can we pay in EUR?
Yes. Invoicing in EUR is standard for German and other EU buyers, settled by SEPA transfer or international wire — no currency conversion risk on your side.
What GSM is Polar fleece fabric?
We produce Polar fleece fabric at 270-280 g/m². Weight is confirmed per colour against the 50 kg minimum order, and you can verify it on a sample before committing to bulk.
What is the width of Polar fleece fabric?
Polar fleece fabric is 175-180 cm wide. Always confirm the width before planning your cut: the fabric is sold by weight, so metre yield depends directly on it.
What is Polar fleece fabric made of?
Polar fleece fabric is 100% polyester. Composition is the first figure that determines shrinkage, pilling and care behaviour — ask for it in writing on the order.
