Yes, it is defined as 1000 kilograms. Note, though, that there is also a slightly different ton in the imperial units. Therefore 1000 kg. is sometimes called "metric ton", when there is a possibility of confusion with the other ton.
Care is needed here.
1000 kilograms are strictly speaking 1 tonne, which is a metric unit (although not an S.I. unit). This is also called a metric ton.
The term ton normally has two meanings.
In the UK before metrication it referred to 2240 pounds (known in the USA as the "long ton").
In the USA 1 ton is 2000 pounds (also known as the "short ton")
Based on the above a ton is not a metric unit of measurement, unless it is prefixed by the word "metric".
