WHY URUGUAY?

Uruguay, destination to invest

Uruguay, a destination to invest. True to its history and due to its strategic location in the heart of MERCOSUR, the ease of doing business based on the laws of Free Ports and Airports, Free Zones, quality and reliable services, Uruguay has become a modern distribution center for products in the region.

 A UNIQUE PORT IN LATIN AMERICA

THE PORT OF MONTEVIDEO OPERATES UNDER THE FREE PORT REGIME

Lately and with Latin America emerging as an important economic continent (and with Brazil as the natural leader), our services aim to benefit imports and exports to and from MERCOSUR markets, mainly through Uruguay, trying to position the Port of Montevideo as a natural gateway for both MERCOSUR and the entire Latin American market. 

LOBRAUS discovered the Port of Montevideo, located in Uruguay, which operates under an innovative concept: the free port regime. This scheme is highly beneficial for logistics services and solutions. Why?

It offers the following benefits:

  I. FREE MOVEMENT OF GOODS IN "TRANSIT" WITHOUT PROCEDURES OR SPECIAL AUTHORIZATIONS;

 II. CHANGE OF DESTINATION OF THE MERCHANDISE AT ANY TIME

 III. EXTENDED STORAGE PERIOD

 III. FOREIGN USERS MAY MAINTAIN OWNERSHIP OF THEIR PRODUCTS WITHOUT NEEDING TO ESTABLISH A LOCAL COMPANY IN URUGUAY;

 IV. THE USER MAY ALSO SELL, BUY OR TERMINATE THE RIGHTS OVER THE GOODS STORED IN FREE PORT, TO ANY COMPANY ABROAD, WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY ANY FEES OR FEES.

 V. DURING THE PERMANENCE OF THE GOODS IN PORTO FRANCO, USERS WILL BE EXEMPT FROM ALL CHARGES AND SURCHARGES APPLICABLE TO IMPORTS.

 VI. THE USER CAN STORE THEIR PRODUCTS IN THE FREE PORT WAREHOUSES AS AN "EXTENSION" OF THEIR OWN BUSINESS IN THEIR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, BEING ABLE TO PERFORM ALL THE TASKS RELATED TO THE PRODUCTS (FROM ADMINISTRATION OR GROUPING TO LABELING AND REPACKAGING).

 VII. THE GOODS DO NOT LOSE THE CERTIFICATE OF ORIGIN; THEREFORE, PRODUCTS DO NOT LOSE ORIGINAL PROFITS WHEN SHIPPED TO END-MARKET DESTINATIONS.
