What our clients say
-
Cost was always our biggest hesitation about overseas trade fairs. Since we started working with FIX, we have recovered a substantial share of our stand and travel costs without any trouble. Now we take part in international fairs with far more strength and confidence.
M.K.Export Manager
-
When we applied with our own team in the past, we lost entitlements over bureaucratic details. Since FIX took over the process, our files have gone through with “zero errors”. Thanks to their command of the regulations and their care, we have peace of mind.
S.A.General Manager
-
The testing and quality certificates we needed for the European market were a serious investment. They enabled us to finance this through Market Entry Certificate Support. Thanks to them our cost burden eased, and we can now compete with global rivals on equal terms.

What is export support consulting?
Export support consulting means planning spending such as overseas trade fairs, market research, promotion, trademark registration and unit rent around Ministry of Trade support. It also covers managing the application end to end.
At FIX, we establish in advance which spending is supported and at what rate. We prepare the application through the Support Management System (DYS) and follow the process until a decision is reached on the payment request. A well-run export support consulting process reduces the risk of losing support you’re entitled to, and of delays caused by missing documents.
What export support is available in Türkiye?
Each support item has a different upper limit and support rate; you can find current amounts in the Support Limits section on this page.
