Importing technology into Uruguay requires careful navigation of local customs, taxation, and compliance laws to avoid costly delays.
Under the Mercosur Common External Tariff, IT equipment duties typically range from 0% to 20%, with the standard 22% VAT (IVA) applied to most imports outside of designated free trade zones.
Equipment imported into a Zona Franca can be exempt from both duties and VAT, provided operations remain compliant with free zone regulations and reporting requirements.
While Uruguay is one of the more predictable markets in Latin America, URSEC certification and precise Mercosur tariff classification still require dedicated local expertise. IOR Cloud Ltd. handles this process completely.
We manage URSEC approvals, structure shipments to take advantage of Zona Franca benefits where applicable, and ensure smooth clearance through Carrasco International Airport (MVD).
