OPERATIONAL PROTOCOL

HOW IT WORKS STEP BY STEP?

  1. 01

    Dossier Structuring & Prior Authorization

    We file the technical petition (and Input-Output Matrix for ATP) before National Customs prior to shipping.

  2. 02

    Bond Issuance & Temporary Clearance

    We set up the bond covering suspended duties and clear the machinery or inputs at the port.

  3. 03

    Domestic Operation & Deadline Tracking

    We track the 6- or 12-month statutory calendar and file timely extensions if your project timeline expands.

  4. 04

    Re-Exportation & Final Bond Release

    We ship the equipment or finished goods abroad and process the definitive release of your bond.

Included benefits & scope
  • 100% duty-suspended entry for project machinery, event equipment, exhibitions, and technical testing
  • ATP Regime for Venezuelan manufacturers: import raw inputs and packaging duty-free, produce locally, and export competitively
  • Technical preparation of the Input-Output Matrix and authorization filing before SENIAT
  • Customs bond management, extension tracking, and legal closure with bond release upon re-export

Paying definitive import duties on machinery that will only operate in Venezuela for a few months, equipment for a trade show or concert, or raw materials you plan to process and export as finished goods drastically erodes your project's margins. Our customs-legal team structures and processes Temporary Admission (AT) and Inward Processing (ATP) authorizations before SENIAT—allowing you to bring in assets with full import tax suspension, monitor statutory deadlines, and release your customs bond upon re-exportation.
