Announcement on Commercial Advertisements and Notices

Dear Member,
With reference to the letter sent to our Chamber by TOBB, the letter forwarded to our Union by the Ministry of Trade states that the first paragraph of Article 34 of the Procedures and Principles Concerning Social Network Providers, published in the Official Gazette dated 01.04.2023 and numbered 32150, contains the provision "Pursuant to an advertising ban decision, no new contract may be concluded with the social network provider and no money transfer may be made to the social network provider.", and the second paragraph contains the provision "The advertising ban decision issued by the President shall be sent to the
Official Gazette for publication. Matters relating to the implementation of the advertising ban decision published in the Official Gazette shall be monitored by the relevant public institutions and organizations."

In line with the above provisions, the decision issued by the Information and Communication Technologies Authority prohibiting natural persons and legal entities resident in Türkiye as taxpayers from placing new advertisements with the social network
provider X Corp., formerly Twitter INC., on the grounds that it failed to fulfil its obligation to designate and notify a representative, is set out.

Elazığ Chamber of Commerce and Industry
