Hi all,

I wonder if you can help. I want to take a mobile phone over to Turkey as a present for my friend. I read somewhere that I would have to declare this to customs on arrival in Turkey so that we can then register it later on. Is this correct? If so, what will happen if I don´t declare it when I arrive?

Thanks in advance for any information you can give on this.

Jo

its not necesary to declare it at border but to use it in Turkey he/she has to register that IMEI number. For Turkcell at least.

Thanks Reyhan.

Don´t fall for it

I want to take a laptop to Turkey for my friend............. of course wireless ready, software loaded, msn installed

 You can try it

lol Lessluv and Libralady. The minute he asks me for anything like a laptop is the end of the road! I see no harm in giving him my upgrade phone I don´t want 

 That´s what they all say.............

Run, jo, Run!

mmm, my bf gave me two phones and I gave him none... I´m wondering if I´m one of those toyboys that they always warn you about...only...not Turkish...and a girl...

that`s just called investment in economics terms. It pays off later
