DAHİLDE İŞLEME REJİMİNDE KARŞILAŞILAN SORUNLAR VE ÇÖZÜM ÖNERİLERİ

The goal of this study is to identify the problems encountered in functioning Inward Processing Regime (IPR) and recommend solutions to these problems. The study was carried out with a quantitative research. In this context, businesses that are members of export unions and have Inward Processing Regime Certificate (IPRC) and Regulatory and Supervisory Bodies responsible for effective functioning of this regime were. It was concluded that the regime provided competitive power to companies in international markets and contributed significantly to increase in exports. It was also found out that the regime did not cause unfair competition against local manufacturers, exert pressure on current deficit, increase dependence on imports and reduce trade policy measures. On the other hand, several problems were detected in equivalent goods usage in the context of the regime. Continuous new regulations introduced within the scope of this regime constitute one other problem.Our country, that adopted export-based growth strategy as of 1980, resorts to several export incentive systems. IPR, one of these incentive systems, contributes significantly to total export of the country. Indeed, almost half of total export activity is carried out under this regime. However; in addition to its advantages, this system is currently criticized in several ways such as increasing dependence on imports and current deficit, causing unfair competition against local manufacturers, decreasing the importance of trade policy. It is apparent that problems encountered in functioning of this significant regime may not be neglected. Removal or clarification of this bilateral conflict related to the regime will help it work better. Therefore, our study is of great importance.We did not find a study on problems encountered in the context of IPR that constitutes the research question of this study. Therefore, based on only studies carried out within the scope of IPR, we involved studies that gave place to problems of IPR in our literature review. Survey questions used for the study were designed according to the problems found in literature. Moreover, regulatory bodies responsible for well-functioning the regime was asked about their opinions about several issues that might be perceived as a problem in the context of IPR.In this context, a survey was implemented to clarify both problems obtained in literature review and issues that were recognized as a problem by authorities.
