Made in EU
What is Made in EU, and What Does It Change?
Made in EU is an integrated framework certifying that a product has undergone "substantial transformation" within an EU member state, meets EU origin rules, and is produced in line with EU industrial policy.
IAA — Industrial Accelerator Act
A comprehensive draft reframing EU industrial policy — the legal foundation for the Made in EU label.
NZIA — Net-Zero Industry Act
Aims to grow EU production share in net-zero technologies. Creates supplier opportunities for Turkish manufacturers.
CBAM — Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism
Carbon border obligation for steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, hydrogen and electricity. Full enforcement at end of 2026.
Clean Industrial Deal
A framework action plan combining green transition with industrial competitiveness — the backbone of the Made in EU strategy.
The Türkiye–EU Customs Union
In force since 1996, the Customs Union grants tariff advantage on industrial goods. Yet the Made in EU framework looks beyond free movement — also at origin and sustainability criteria. Türkiye holds the most advantageous position among countries integrated with EU manufacturing, but holding that position requires rapid alignment.
NAFTA Analogy
Mexico 1994 — Türkiye 2027?
When NAFTA came into force, Mexico captured a significant share of US manufacturing. Three decades of growth in the maquiladora zones became possible thanks to "just-across-the-border" access to the US market. The Made in EU framework may open a similar historic door for Türkiye — but only for the companies that build origin and compliance infrastructure today.
