The A.TR movement certificate (Turkish: A.TR Dolaşım Belgesi) is the customs document that shows industrial goods and processed agricultural products are in free circulation in the Turkey-EU customs union, so they can use the union's preferential regime. It is not a certificate of origin: it proves the goods' customs status, not the country that made them.
FOB (Free on Board) is an Incoterms 2020 delivery rule, defined only for sea and inland waterway transport, under which the seller loads the goods on the vessel the buyer names and the buyer carries the risk from that moment. In the garment trade, “FOB” also names full-package production, in which the factory sources the fabric and trims too.
