Chile is widely regarded as Latin America's most business-friendly economy, with strong institutions, low corruption, and one of the region's most extensive free trade agreement networks. Santiago has emerged as a major hub for hyperscale data centers, drawing investment from global cloud providers.

Importing technology into Chile requires careful navigation of local customs, taxation, and compliance laws to avoid costly delays.
Thanks to Chile's free trade agreements with the US, EU, and China, the majority of IT equipment enters at 0% duty. However, the standard 19% IVA still applies to virtually all imported goods.
Precise HS code classification remains essential, as certain electronics categories outside FTA coverage can still attract duties up to 6%.
While Chile is one of the easiest countries in Latin America to import into, SUBTEL certification and precise documentation standards still require dedicated local expertise. IOR Cloud Ltd. handles this process end-to-end.
We manage SUBTEL approvals, ensure accurate customs declarations, and provide seamless clearance through Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL).
