Regulations were made in the laws for Organized Industrial Zones

The OIZ Law entered into force by being published in the Official Gazette. With the new regulation, it is expected that site selection and expropriation stages will accelerate and production advantages will increase.

Regulations were made in the laws for Organized Industrial Zones

The law included regulations on accelerating the planning, establishment and expropriation processes of Organized Industrial Zones (OIZ). Organized Industrial Zones Supreme Organization (OSBÜK) President Memiş Kütükcü evaluated the “Law Amending the OIZ Law and Some Laws”.

Kütükcü emphasized that the new regulations made in the OIZ law will accelerate the location selection and expropriation processes in OIZs and increase the investment and production advantages of organized industrial zones, which are the locomotive of Turkey's industrial production. Memiş Kütükcü said, “With the new OIZ law, many issues that we as OSBÜK and our OIZ community have been demanding for a while have been realized.”

Making an evaluation about the new regulation, Kütükcü said, “In the places determined as industrial areas in the current zoning plans, the OIZ area will be finalized without the OIZ site selection process, provided that the opinion of the administration that approves the plan is taken and geological and geotechnical studies are made as the basis for the zoning plan.

The parcel owners, who undertake to invest in the conditions and periods specified in the regulation, can be accommodated by the OIZ in the selected area without expropriation. In addition, for the first time, a pre-allocation application was introduced to our OIZs. With the pre-allocation application, our OIZs will now be able to pre-allocate investors over the determined price while the site selection and expropriation processes continue.

OIZs will be able to pay the expropriation costs in this area, as well as carry out infrastructure works, with the income they earn through the pre-allocation application. This will relieve our OIZs financially. With all these regulations, the site selection and expropriation processes of our OIZs, which took 4-5 years to allocate to new investors, have been accelerated, thus opening the way for new investments.”

Stating that OIZs are authorized to rent or sell superstructured industrial parcels, Kütükcü said, “Our OIZs, which previously allocated parcels to investors by making only infrastructure investments, are now authorized to rent or sell superstructure industrial parcels to investors who have given the condition and commitment to start production.

With this arrangement, our OIZs will be able to build their own factory buildings as well as infrastructures such as electricity, water, natural gas, and lease or sell them to investors on a turnkey basis. The investor will be able to produce only by bringing the machinery and equipment to be used in production and human resources.

This regulation is an important practice not only for our domestic investors but also for foreign investors in particular.” Kütükcü underlined that with the regulation, one of the most important questions of OIZ industrialists, the inability to operate more than one business in one parcel, has been resolved, and noted that the participating industrialists in OIZs can now lease their facilities to one or more tenants for production purposes.

Added green OSB definition

Stating that the definition of 'Green OIZ' has been added to the OIZ law, Kütükcü said, "With the regulation, the projects that our organized industrial zones will prepare in order to reduce carbon emissions and meet the Green OIZ criteria will be primarily evaluated by our Ministry of Industry and Technology." Kütükcü added that with the other regulation, the ratio of common use areas in OIZs cannot be less than 5 percent of the size of the OIZ, and the ratio of service and support areas cannot be more than 15 percent of the size of the OIZ.
