In 1996, Türkiye became a member of the Customs Union with the European Union. Following this development, DEİK reorganised its Business Councils with EU member states under the roof of the Türkiye-EU Business Council and established a joint membership basis. The Business Councils continue their individual activities in areas that do not concern the EU, while the EU Business Councils work for the advancement of Türkiye-EU relations.
In the process of EU expansion, the Balkan countries were integrated into the region. With their inclusion, the regional organisation which previously only included EU member countries was extended to a 37-member structure called the Europe Business Councils.
