What You Need to Know
Uruguay has relatively straightforward import procedures for agricultural equipment. A Declaración de Importación is required, and ISPM-15 compliant wood packaging is mandatory. Uruguay is a Mercosur member, which affects some tariff structures. Meridian Freight prepares the export documentation, including consular legalization when required; your despachante (ADAU) handles the import side. Air freight is available for urgent parts.
