The Turkish government has published in the Official Journal a text which allows exporters, under certain conditions, to obtain a "green" diplomatic passport, allowing them to avoid delays and other problems when they have to go abroad and expand their sales network internationally.
This incentive, which could benefit around 20 000 people, was eagerly awaited by exporters for many years. The president of the Union of Exporters of Automotive, Orhan Sabuncu, says it is eliminating an obstacle for exporters who have to travel abroad to attend meetings or fairs but it is also a psychological support.
Now we must wait to see what will be the criteria to obtain the passport. It is possible that the criteria are different from one sector to another.
