On December 23, 2023, the Turkish Ministry of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change (MoEUCC) officially issued an amendment to the KKDIK regulations, extending the registration deadline. Recently, the MoEUCC updated the administrative fees required for KKDIK official registration in 2025 on its official website, as detailed below:
Administrative Fees (TRY) [Non-SME Companies]
| Individual Submission (TRY) | Joint Submission (TRY) | Increase | |
| 1-10 t/a | 3550 → 5110 | 2700 → 3890 | 40% |
| 10-100 t/a | 8900 → 12810 | 6250 → 9000 | |
| 100-1000 t/a | 25000 → 35980 | 18000 → 25910 | |
| 1000+ t/a | 53700 → 77290 | 43000 → 61890 | |
| Intermediates | 3550 → 5110 | 2600 → 3740 |
SMEs (Small, Medium, and Micro Enterprises) are eligible for administrative fee discounts, provided they submit the necessary documentation to qualify.
Since the MoEUCC began publishing administrative fees, there has been a significant annual increase, and this trend is expected to continue in the future.
It is important to note that although the registration deadline has been extended, the new registration timeframe appears ample. However, considering the time required for experimental work and data sharing with European data holders, the progress of official registrations in Turkey has been slow.
In light of this, CIRS Group advises all companies engaged in chemical trade with Turkey, especially those exporting high tonnages, to continuously monitor the progress of pre-registered substances in their SIEF to avoid missing registration opportunities.
