eCommerce information about Turkey

Turkey's location next to both the Mediterranean and the Black Seas makes it a destination of strategical importance, as the border between Europe and Asia. eCommerce in Turkey now represents 1.6% of all its retail business and whilst the country’s economy is in a period of relatively slow growth, the eCommerce sector showed a strong increase in growth. Istanbul and Ankara are two of the most frequently sent to cities due to their vast populations, whilst tourism also drives up the volume of goods sent to and from Turkey.

74 million people reside in Turkey, many of them expats from other countries, so there is the parcel delivery market of friends and family shipping goods to those who chose to now live here. Internet usage stands at around 49% penetration in Turkey, with around 37.7 million people online via fixed or mobile connections, meaning eCommerce is set to thrive, as Turks look to overseas suppliers to provide the best range of products and prices. In terms of European country ranking of the highest number of internet users, Turkey is in 5th place, just after Germany, Russia, the UK, and France.

The top three countries who supply imports to Turkey are China, Germany, and Russia. Almost one-quarter of the population has made a purchase online, and 15% buy at least once every three months and in terms of the eCommerce product categories, electronics are generating $2.7 billion USD, followed by fashion and furniture both accounting for $1.4 billion USD market share. It is estimated that the eCommerce sector in Turkey is expected to reach $11.5 billion USD by 2020.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you offer door to door delivery?

    The Parcel Monkey marketplace uses a shipping calculator to find the best prices for shipping your items door to door via a range of different couriers. 

    With full tracking on almost all of our delivery services, you can follow your package from the moment it leaves you until it arrives with the recipient. We always advise providing the contact number of the recipient so that if needed, the courier can contact them to resolve any issues with the delivery.

    Some of our courier services are delivered to a local Post Office, where the recipient will need to collect the package from such as with DHL eCommerce to some remote areas so it is essential to provide a working contact number. Items shipped with Parcel Monkey are also done so DDU, so it might be that Customs need to collect payment from the recipient before delivery. We offer Customs Advice to help with the completion of any Customs Documents. 

    If you want to know more about what a courier is and how to choose the best service for your package, we can help.

  • Can I add protection cover to my order?

    When you place an order via the Parcel Monkey marketplace, during the booking process you can add protection cover to your item. As long as your item is not prohibited, has been packaged properly and you follow our Claims Procedure, you will be protected should your item be lost or damaged. 

    Some of our services offer no protection cover, but others do and some even offer free cover up to a certain value. You can view this information when you get a price via our shipping calculator. 

    Please ensure that the item is not on the prohibited items list as this will make it void.

    It is also vital to remember your package is going to be sent with global carriers, likely to be handled in various customs and airport departments so be sure to package the item correctly so it is well protected and cannot move around in the box.

  • How long will it take for my package to be delivered?

    Before you choose how to send your package, consider how quickly you need it to arrive. Transit times depend on two key factors- the shipping destination and the courier service you choose from the Parcel Monkey marketplace. 

    When choosing a courier from our marketplace, we will display an estimated delivery time, provided by the couriers themselves as they handle the goods.

    You can see how long it will take to arrive with the receiver and we advise that you share this tracking with the recipient so they can see when it is set to arrive. Always provide the recipient contact number when you book in case the delivery courier needs to contact them. 

    You can choose slower economy services such as DHL eCommerce if looking to save on the cost, or you can choose a speedy Express service that gets the package delivered more quickly like our 2-5 day International Drop Off service provided by FedEx, also available as a Pickup.
