Foreigners will also be caught in cell phone tracking

The Ministry of Commerce and the Information and Communications Technology Authority (BTK) collaborated in inspecting the right of international passengers to bring a mobile phone in 3 years, in addition to their personal mobile phones.

Thanks to the query screen created with the data network transferred by the BTK, the efficiency of the control and inspection processes at the entrance to the country has been increased.

Within the scope of the application, which has been implemented since November 1, the staff at the customs gate checks whether the passenger’s mobile phone, other than the mobile phone for personal use, is within the scope of the exemption.

ALSO APPLIES TO FOREIGNERS

It also applies to foreigners more than 1 tax-exempt mobile phone rule in 3 years. On the other hand, in the framework of the fight against mobile phone smuggling, an average of 30-35 thousand contraband mobile phones are seized annually, while the total number of mobile phones brought into the country with passengers in excess of the exemption or illegally outside the declaration is not yet known.
