Dear partners and clients,
As part of the new Special Law for the Diaspora and Human Mobility, the General Directorate of Customs (DGA) has updated the import regulations for Salvadorans returning to the country with their personal belongings and vehicles.
According to Resolution DGA-016-2025, each family group is entitled to import up to two vehicles with exemption from import duties and registration taxes, under the following conditions:
🚗 Conventional vehicles (gasoline or diesel): Up to 8 years old from the date of manufacture.
⚡ Electric or hybrid vehicles: Up to 7 years old from the date of manufacture.
🧾 Vehicles must be in good working condition not declared as salvage or total loss.
🔑 The vehicle must remain under the owner’s name for at least two years before transfer or resale.
This new regulation also allows the import of household goods and work equipment under the same law, offering returning Salvadorans greater flexibility and benefits when relocating to El Salvador.
At BFI El Salvador, we are ready to assist you through every step of your international relocation, ensuring smooth customs clearance and safe delivery of your belongings and vehicles.
Let’s make your return home simple, compliant, and stress free.
Best regards,
Moisés Carballo
