Frequently asked questions about foreign trade

Clear answers on tariffs, regulatory compliance and geopolitical risks in emerging markets.

It depends on the product and the current trade agreement. Mexico and Brazil are members of ALADI, which allows tariff preferences for certain items. For manufactured products, the general tariff ranges between 10% and 35%. We recommend verifying the exact tariff classification and requesting a certificate of origin to apply the corresponding reduction.

Sanctions can block logistics routes, hold up payments and increase compliance costs. For example, restrictions on semiconductor exports from certain Asian countries force companies to seek alternative suppliers in Europe or Latin America. A regulatory compliance audit helps identify exposures and adjust contracts before a disruption occurs.

Requirements vary by country, but common documents include: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and customs valuation declaration. In countries like Vietnam or Indonesia, additional phytosanitary certifications are required for agricultural products. An error in tariff classification can delay the shipment by up to 15 business days.

When the company operates in more than three countries or handles more than 50 different tariff items. An external firm provides up-to-date knowledge of local regulatory changes and reduces the risk of fines. It is also recommended when starting operations in a new market, such as the Philippines or Kenya, where regulations change frequently.

Diversify suppliers in at least two different regions, maintain safety stock for critical products and negotiate force majeure clauses that cover sudden tariff changes. It is also useful to monitor political risk indices quarterly and adjust logistics routes according to port stability. Our seminars cover these topics with practical cases of companies operating in the Middle East and Africa.
