CUSTOMS REGULATIONS

According to Mexican Laws, in order to be able to import household goods free of import duties, the following rules must be followed:

The goods must be used at least six months old.
That all articles must be included in the Inventory consularized by the Mexican Consulate. Any item not included in the inventory, can be expropriated by Mexican Government.
The following items are not considered household goods; firearms, ammunition, liquors wine , motorcycles, boats, cars, medicine, and some pantry may require an import license, please contact us for specific information.

Due to our port; Mexican Customs Warehouses are saturated with merchandise, the shipments in liftvans or steel containers are placed in the open, therefore it is recommended that:

All containers either coming by air, by land, or by sea must be perfectly well protected against rain. The roofs covered with plate and the furniture with waterproof paper.

It is recommended not to ship household goods until all documentation is completed and in order. the airports allow only 30 days to release or return shipment from the time of it's arrival. All other ports hold the shipment for 60 calendar days. If the documentation is not presented by that time the shipment is declared as "ABANDONED" and is confiscated by Mexican Government.

All shipments consigned to Mudanzas Gou, S.A. de C.V. must be notified by email or fax with all the information pertaining to the shipment. On occasions shipments arrived at the Customs House of the port of entry and neither the customer nor Mudanzas Gou have been advised by the origin agent and this generates storage and demurrage charges, then it is necessary to know ahead of time about the consignation of shipment in order to proceed the importation negotiations with customer.

Send original documents by courier service only. Do not use regular mail.

Due to legal conditions in Mexico C.O.D. charges are not acceptable. All shipments must come prepaid and only destination charges can come in a C.O.D. basis.

Now, new items can be imported into Mexico with payment of corresponding duties/taxes. Original invoices must be presented together with the proper documents for customs clearance, of course, also new items should be included in Legalized Inventory List.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The above is only for shipments coming through Nvo. Laredo, Tamps., but not other ports of entry. Please contact your destination if information for importing new items by other ports is required.

The shipments consigned to Mexico City Terminal are handled directly by the steamship companies and their own transportation system. Consequently, control of the shipment is lost and it is unknown when the shipments arrive in Mexico City. Therefore, it is suggested that shipments are sent to port of entry only, allowing our own trailers, operators, and un-packers to transport the shipment. Following this system we will be able to control the return of empty containers to the port of entrance avoiding unnecessary demurrage charges.

Please do not include wine, spirits, or any alcoholic beverages as it is prohibited at all ports of entry. Please note that if wines and liquors are found in household goods, the customs negotiations may be delayed and extra handling fees will be assessed for taking out the wine and keeping it in Customs dominium until the customer gets the corresponding import permit and then pays the duties/taxes.

There are 60 days starting from the date the vessel arrives to the port of entry for releasing the wine. After those 60 days wine is confiscated by the Mexican Government.

We guarantee demurrage to the different steamship lines. Therefore, cash deposits from the customer are not required. In case of demurrage charges, they will be collected from customer before delivery.

An airfreight shipment can be sent containing personal effects such as clothing, books, shoes, personal toilette articles, and a portable TV. The shipment should not exceed 50 kilograms per each family's member and customer has to provide:

Photocopies of passports for the whole family
