土耳其关于污染罚款的更新

As reported in our previous circular, Pollution Fines in Turkey published in September 2019, fines for causing pollution are imposed under the Turkish Environment Code dated 1983, number 2872. With effect from 1 January 2020, the level of fines have been revised to reflect increases of approximately 23% from the previous year. The updated amounts are as per the below.

根据协会20199月发布的《土耳其污染罚款》,将根据1983年颁布的《土耳其环境法规》第2872条规定对造成污染的行为处以罚款。从202011日起,罚金金额上调约23%。罚金金额更新如下:


Revised level of fines


Category 1 – pollution from tankers such as petroleum products.

Up to 1000 Gross Tons: 606.67 Turkish lira per ton.

Between 1000 and 5000 Gross Tons: plus 151.67 Turkish lira per ton.

Over 5000 Gross Tons: plus 15.16 Turkish lira per ton.


Category 2 – pollution by dirty ballast by tankers.

Up to 1000 Gross Tons: 110.53 Turkish lira per ton.

Between 1000 and 5000 Gross Tons: plus 22.05 Turkish lira per ton.

Over 5000 Gross Tons: plus 3.51 Turkish lira per ton.


Category 3 – pollution from ships/vessels and other sea vehicles such as petroleum products, fuel oil and other oil waste.

Up to 1000 Gross Tons: 303.34 Turkish lira per ton.

It should be noted that the above amounts are trebled if the liable party is an ‘institution, organisation or business’, while fines paid within 30 days of notification are reduced by 25%.

需要注意的是,如果责任方是“机构、组织或企业“,则上述金额将增加两倍;如果能够在接到通知后30天内支付罚款,则罚金将减少25%。
