Sample Right of Withdrawal Text
Under the Law No. 6502 on the Protection of Consumers (“Law”), buyers have the right to return products without stating any reason and “without paying shipping fees” by using their right of withdrawal within 14 days from the date of delivery.
1. Consumer’s Right of Withdrawal in Installment Sales Agreements:
The provisions regarding installment sales agreements are set forth in Article 17 of the Law, and the right of withdrawal is regulated in Article 18.
The Regulation on Installment Sales Agreements was published in the Official Gazette dated 14.01.2015.
Accordingly:
Right of withdrawal
(1) The consumer has the right to withdraw from the installment sales agreement within seven days without giving any reason and without paying any penalty.
(2) The withdrawal period starts on the day the contract is concluded for contracts relating to the provision of services, and on the day the consumer or a third person designated by the consumer receives the goods for contracts relating to the delivery of goods. However, the consumer may also use the right of withdrawal within the period from the conclusion of the contract until the delivery of the goods.
(3) For contracts where the delivery of goods and the provision of services are performed together, the provisions on the right of withdrawal relating to the delivery of goods apply.
(4) It is sufficient that the notice of the exercise of the right of withdrawal is sent in writing or via a permanent data carrier to the seller or provider within the withdrawal period. The seller or provider is responsible for proving that the consumer has been informed about the right of withdrawal.
(5) If the seller has delivered the goods to the consumer within the withdrawal period, the consumer may use the goods only to the extent required by an ordinary inspection. Ordinary inspection covers the initial examination of the goods. If the goods are used normally, the consumer cannot exercise the right of withdrawal.
(6) The consumer cannot exercise the right of withdrawal in service contracts where, with the consumer’s approval, performance of the service has begun before the end of the withdrawal period.
(7) In financial leasing transactions where the consumer finds the seller, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised.
(8) The provisions on the right of withdrawal in favor of the consumer regarding other contracts regulated by the Law are reserved.
Consequences of exercising the right of withdrawal
(1) If the consumer exercises the right of withdrawal, the seller or provider is obliged to return the amount received and any documents that put the consumer under any obligation, without imposing any cost on the consumer, within seven days from the date the withdrawal notice reaches them.
(2) The consumer who exercises the right of withdrawal is obliged to return the goods subject to the contract to the seller within seven days from the date he/she exercises the right of withdrawal. Otherwise, the consumer is deemed not to have exercised the right of withdrawal.
(3) In the event of the exercise of the right of withdrawal, the consumer is obliged to bear the costs of returning the goods.
2. Consumer’s Right of Withdrawal in Distance Contracts
The provisions regarding distance contracts are explained in Article 48 of the Law.
Distance contracts involve certain risks for the consumer similar to off-premises contracts. In off-premises contracts, the determining feature is that the parties physically meet outside the ordinary premises such as stores; in distance contracts, the determining feature is that the parties never meet. The consumer who concludes the contract via phone, internet, letter or similar means from home does not even see the face of the seller or provider. In such contracts, the problem is usually that the contract and performance are concluded without much thought, without having sufficient information about the details of the contract and performance, without comparing the contract terms with those of similar goods or services on the market, and without seeing the goods. Therefore, to eliminate these information deficiencies, it is appropriate, in line with the European Parliament and Council Directive 2011/83/EU of 25/10/2011 on Consumer Rights, to inform the consumer about the contract and performance and to grant a right of withdrawal.
The Regulation on Distance Contracts was published in the Official Gazette dated 27.11.2015.
According to this Regulation, the Use of the Consumer’s Right of Withdrawal and the Obligations of the Parties are determined as follows:
Right of withdrawal
(1) The consumer has the right to withdraw from the contract within fourteen days without giving any reason and without paying any penalty.
(2) The withdrawal period starts on the day the contract is concluded for contracts relating to the provision of services, and on the day the consumer or a third person designated by the consumer receives the goods for contracts relating to the delivery of goods. However, the consumer may also use the right of withdrawal within the period from the conclusion of the contract until the delivery of the goods.
(3) In determining the withdrawal period:
a) For goods delivered separately in installments under a single order, the day on which the consumer or a third person designated by the consumer receives the last good,
b) For goods consisting of multiple parts, the day on which the consumer or a third person designated by the consumer receives the last part,
c) For contracts in which goods are delivered regularly for a certain period of time, the day on which the consumer or a third person designated by the consumer receives the first good,
is taken as the basis.
(4) Delivery of the goods to the carrier by the seller is not considered as delivery to the consumer.
(5) In contracts where the delivery of goods and the provision of services are performed together, the provisions on the right of withdrawal relating to the delivery of goods apply.
Incomplete information
(1) The seller or provider is responsible for proving that the consumer has been informed about the right of withdrawal. If the consumer is not properly informed about the right of withdrawal, the consumer is not bound by the fourteen-day withdrawal period. In any case, this period expires one year after the end of the withdrawal period.
(2) If proper information regarding the right of withdrawal is provided within one year, the fourteen-day withdrawal period starts from the day such information is duly provided.
Exercise of the right of withdrawal
(1) It is sufficient that the notice of the exercise of the right of withdrawal is sent in writing or via a permanent data carrier to the seller or provider before the withdrawal period expires.
(2) In exercising the right of withdrawal, the consumer may use the form in the annex of the Regulation or may make a clear statement indicating the decision to withdraw. The seller or provider may also offer the option on its website for the consumer to fill out this form or send the withdrawal declaration. If the right of withdrawal is offered through the website, the seller or provider must immediately notify the consumer that it has received the withdrawal request.
(3) In sales made through voice communication, the seller or provider must send the form in the annex of the Regulation to the consumer at the latest by the time of delivery of the goods or performance of the service. The consumer may use this form or the methods in the second paragraph to exercise the right of withdrawal.
(4) The burden of proof regarding the exercise of the right of withdrawal lies with the consumer.
Obligations of the seller or provider
(1) If the consumer exercises the right of withdrawal, the seller or provider shall refund all payments received, including the costs of delivery of the goods to the consumer, if any, within fourteen days from the date on which the withdrawal notice is received.
(2) The seller or provider must make all refunds specified in the first paragraph using the same payment method used by the consumer when purchasing, without putting the consumer under any cost or obligation and in a single transaction.
(3) In the exercise of the right of withdrawal, if the goods are returned via the carrier specified by the seller for returns as per Article 5(1)(g) of the Regulation, the consumer cannot be held responsible for the costs of the return. If the seller does not specify any carrier for returns in the preliminary information, no cost can be charged to the consumer for return shipping. If the carrier specified in the preliminary information for returns does not have a branch in the consumer’s location, the seller must ensure that the goods to be returned are collected from the consumer without any additional cost.
Obligations of the consumer
(1) Unless the seller or provider offers to collect the goods, the consumer must return the goods to the seller or provider or to the person authorized by the seller or provider within ten days from the date on which he/she notifies the exercise of the right of withdrawal.
(2) The consumer is not responsible for any changes or deterioration in the goods resulting from proper use in line with the functioning, technical specifications and instructions for use within the withdrawal period.
Effect of exercising the right of withdrawal on ancillary contracts
(1) Without prejudice to Article 30 of the Law, if the consumer exercises the right of withdrawal, ancillary contracts are automatically terminated. In this case, the consumer is not obliged to pay any costs, compensation or penalties, except for the cases specified in Article 13(2) of the Regulation.
(2) The seller or provider must immediately notify the third party that is party to the ancillary contract that the consumer has exercised the right of withdrawal.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
(1) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the consumer cannot exercise the right of withdrawal in the following contracts:
a) Contracts relating to goods or services whose price depends on fluctuations in financial markets and which are outside the seller’s or provider’s control.
b) Contracts relating to goods prepared in line with the consumer’s wishes or personal needs.
c) Contracts relating to goods that may deteriorate quickly or expire.
ç) Contracts relating to goods whose protective elements such as packaging, tape, seal or package have been opened after delivery and which are not suitable for return for reasons of health and hygiene.
d) Contracts relating to goods that, after delivery, are mixed with other products and cannot be separated due to their nature.
e) Contracts relating to books, digital content and computer consumables presented in a tangible medium, if the protective elements such as packaging, tape, seal or package have been opened after delivery.

ğ) Contracts relating to services performed instantly in electronic form or intangible goods delivered instantly to the consumer.
h) Contracts relating to services for which performance has begun with the consumer’s consent before the end of the withdrawal period.
