Verzollungsprozess

Syrian General Directorate of Customs and Excise nominally manages imports in Assad government areas. Severely disrupted by civil war since 2011. Multiple areas under different control (government, SDF/Kurdish, HTS/rebel). Government areas use Damascus customs. Latakia port is the main functioning government-controlled port. COMPREHENSIVE US and EU sanctions restrict most trade. Post-2024 political changes may alter the situation.

Was tatsächlich zu erwarten ist

WAR-DEVASTATED since 2011. Customs non-functional in many areas. US and EU COMPREHENSIVE SANCTIONS restrict most commercial trade. Major carriers (DHL, FedEx, UPS) DO NOT serve Syria. Very limited shipping options, mainly through Lebanon, Turkey, or Dubai intermediaries and often legally grey. Banking system largely non-functional for international transfers. Syrian pound collapsed. Risk of shipment seizure by various factions. Post-2024 political transitions creating uncertainty. NOT RECOMMENDED for commercial shipping, verify latest sanctions status before any trade.
