Strategic Logistics Excellence
Leading Solutions in Road Freight from Turkey to Germany
Logistics operations between Turkey and Germany—the heart of global trade—are not merely a transport process; they represent the seamless optimization of supply chains, factories, and production lines. At Brosan Logistics, we serve your export and import shipments to and from Germany with the market's fastest, safest, and most competitive rates.
Types of Road Freight Transportation: Turkey - Germany
We develop various transportation methods for our clients' cargo of different volumes and urgencies:
- Full Truck Load (FTL): Our dedicated truck service filled entirely with a single client's cargo. Average transit time is 5-7 days, offering uninterrupted tracking and guaranteed secure arrival.
- Less Than Truckload (LTL / Part Load): An highly cost-effective (Economic) transport type for smaller volume cargo that does not fill an entire truck. You share the vehicle with other clients' goods. We have regular weekly departures.
- Minivan / Express Courier: Complete door-to-door, 48-72 hour super-fast logistics service designed for goods up to 1300 kilograms that need to reach Europe with the speed of air freight but without getting stuck in airport customs handling.
- Refrigerated (Temperature-Controlled) Transport: Specialized trucks equipped with cooling units to transport fresh produce, frozen foods, or medical products that must be maintained between -20°C and +20°C.
- Heavy Haulage and Out of Gauge (Lowbed): Engineered transport for massive loads such as factory relocations, heavy machinery, and transformers that do not fit into standard trailer dimensions.

Truck Routes and Border Crossings from Turkey to Germany
Our transport vehicles are tracked and routed in real-time by our expert operations managers based on urgency and weather conditions. The preferred main routes for our Germany trips are:
- Kapikule (Turkey) - Bulgaria - Serbia - Hungary - Austria - Germany: The busiest Central European truck route with the most standardized customs procedures. Average transit times are highly stable.
- Combined Ro-Ro and Road (Via Italy): From Pendik or Çeşme ports, our trailers travel via Ro-Ro (Vessel) to the Port of Trieste in Italy, then continue by road through Austria to Southern Germany (Munich/Stuttgart). This is a lifesaver alternative during winter months or heavy congestion periods at the Bulgarian borders.
Customs Clearance: Required Documents for Exporting Goods to Germany
At Brosan Logistics, we do not merely transport; we also act as your company's export consultant. Germany is a member state of the European Union (EU). Therefore, trade between Turkey and Germany takes place within the framework of the Customs Union rules.
For your cargo to be delivered smoothly with zero waiting time, the following documents must be absolutely complete:
- A.TR Movement Certificate: A vital document that allows your industrial and processed agricultural products to enter the European border exempt from customs duty (0% Tax). It must be officially endorsed.
- Commercial Invoice and Packing List: Your international invoice must clearly contain the type of goods, packaging details, number of packages, and net/gross kilogram weights in English or German.
- EUR.1 Movement Certificate: Mandatory for special product groups like agricultural goods and iron/steel to prove the preferential origin (Turkey) of the goods and secure tax advantages.
- CMR Waybill: The valuable document given to the truck driver departing from Turkey, serving as an international consignment note.
- CE Marking and Declarations: If you are transporting electronics, toys, medical equipment, or machinery, CE certification proving the goods comply with EU standards is mandatory.
