Interpretation of KKDIK New Policy and Compliance Strategies for Temporary Registration

In 2026, compliance with Turkey’s KKDIK regulation faces a dual challenge: major regulatory shifts and an accelerated timeline. In March 2026, the Turkish Ministry of Environment, Urbanization, and Climate Change (MoEUCC) issued the latest announcement on the KKDIK regulation, explicitly mandating that all substances exported to Turkey (≥ 1 tonne per annum) must complete temporary registration by September 30, 2026. This mandatory requirement implies that any company failing to obtain a temportary registration number by this deadline will be unable to legally continue exporting their products to the Turkish market. Concurrently, December 31, 2026, marks the first deadline for the full registration of high-tonnage substances (≥ 1,000t/a), placing immense pressure on data sharing, LR coordination, and data gap remediation.

For businesses engaged in trade with Turkey, we have entered a critical compliance window that will determine future market access. However, the frequent updates to the KKDIK regulation—concerning registration deadlines, data requirements, and compliance pathways—have created significant uncertainty and strategic dilemmas for companies. 

Questions remain: 

How can companies lock in the most viable options within the tight timeframe for temporary registration? 

Is it necessary to begin preparing for full registration immediately after securing temporary status? 

How can companies balance compliance costs against time-related risks? 

What are the practical differences between various strategic approaches?

This webinar will provide a deep dive into the latest KKDIK policy developments. We will outline actionable strategies for the looming temporary registration deadline and offer valuable insights for high-tonnage full registration.
