FAQ

What clients usually ask

When do I need a customs broker?

Any import or export operation of meaningful value in Argentina requires a licensed customs broker registered with AFIP-DGA. CACE has 6 licensed brokers and authorized agents handling each client's enquiries and operations.

How long does a clearance take?

It depends on the assigned channel (green, orange, red) and the regime. A green-channel operation can be released the same day; one with physical inspection takes 2 to 5 business days. We are permanently connected to the Argentine Customs System (María) to minimize turnaround.

Do you work with operations of any size?

Yes. We manage a portfolio of more than 100 active clients, from a first low-volume import to accounts with hundreds of monthly operations. The methodology and personalized service scale with each client.

Do you operate outside Buenos Aires?

Yes. In addition to our headquarters in Buenos Aires, we have an office in Rosario and representation in every operational customs office in the country.

Do you also offer freight forwarding and logistics?

Yes. We are an integrated-logistics team: ocean, air and ground freight forwarding, an in-house warehouse in Buenos Aires authorized for IMO cargo, an own fleet with satellite tracking and ground transport to every province. We offer real Door-to-Door, tailor-made.

Do you advise on BCRA foreign-exchange regulations?

Yes. We provide advisory and handle filings on Argentine Central Bank (BCRA) regulations tied to foreign-trade operations.
