Import & Shipping Guides for Chile

Chile: Iquique's free zone changes the maths

A free zone at the border

Iquique (ZOFRI) is a free-trade zone, which lets goods be held and re-exported with different treatment than a straight domestic import. For a buyer supplying Bolivia or southern Peru, that is often the reason to route through Chile rather than land the car directly.

The straightforward case

For a car that is staying in Chile, 6% duty and 19% VAT apply on import, and San Antonio handles the central corridor.

Which case are you?

Say whether the car stays in Chile or moves on, and we will quote the matching route.

Free zone or straight import

A car staying in Chile is cleared on the standard basis, while goods routed through the Iquique free zone are treated differently and can move on to Bolivia or southern Peru. The route is chosen before shipping, not after.
