Import Regulations for China Goods in Latin America

Key compliance considerations for Latin American importers:

Brazil — INMETRO certification required for electronics and electrical equipment. ANVISA registration for health and cosmetic products. Import licence (LI) required for certain categories via SISCOMEX.

Mexico — NOM certification required for electronics, electrical goods and safety equipment. COFEPRIS registration for health products. Import permit for controlled categories.

Colombia — INVIMA registration for health-related products. Technical standards (NTC) apply to electrical and mechanical goods. Colombian customs uses the Andean tariff schedule.

Chile — One of the most open markets in Latin America. Most goods enter under a 6% general tariff. China-Chile Free Trade Agreement reduces or eliminates tariffs on qualifying goods.

Peru — China-Peru Free Trade Agreement provides preferential tariff rates on most manufactured goods from China. SGP certification may be required for specific categories.

Elite Global Trade manages certification coordination, import licencing support and tariff classification for all DDP shipments to Latin America.
