Carlos Méndez
Customs Procedures Specialist
Exporting heavy machinery or classic vehicles requires meticulous logistical planning and a deep understanding of Peruvian and international customs regulations.
Our agency at the port of Callao specializes in advising Peruvian companies throughout the entire process, from the initial paperwork to the container's arrival at its destination in the Middle East. The key lies in preparation.
Required Materials and Documentation
For a successful export, you must prepare and submit the following documentation to the corresponding authorities:
- Single Exit Document (DUS): Main customs declaration for export goods.
- Commercial Invoice: Detailing the value, description, and terms of sale of the vehicle or machinery.
- Certificate of Origin: Certifying the Peruvian origin of the goods.
- Packing List: Detailed specification of the contents and packaging method in the container.
- Special Permits: For classic vehicles or machinery with regulated components.
💡 Expert Tip:
Start the procedures at least 3 weeks in advance. The physical verification of the cargo by SUNAT at the port is a critical step that should not be underestimated.
Packing Process Structure
Secure packing in the container is essential to prevent damage during sea freight. We follow a strict protocol:
- Inspection and Cleaning: Complete inspection of the vehicle or machinery and decontamination according to phytosanitary regulations.
- Immobilization: Use of slings, chains, and special chocks to secure the cargo to the container floor.
- Protection: Application of protective film, anti-scratch covers, and filler material on sensitive points.
- Visual Documentation: Detailed photographs and video of the condition and packing process for your records.
Coordination with our network of destination agents (Dubai, Doha, etc.) ensures that once the container arrives, local import procedures are managed efficiently, closing the cycle of comprehensive logistics.
