Operational Guidance for IAM Partners | Imports into El Salvador

Dear IAM Partners,

I would like to share important guidance regarding imports into El Salvador, in line with current criteria applied by the Dirección General de Aduanas (DGA).
According to the provisions applied under DACG-016-2025, the DGA allows import operations to be structured using up to two import declarations, with a maximum declared value of up to USD 100,000 per category, provided that all customs requirements, valuation rules, and supporting documentation are properly met for salvadoreans or naturalized citizens.

CONTACT US

This value limit applies independently to each of the following categories:
• Household goods up to USD 100,000
• Vehicles (of all types) up to USD 100,000
• Work tools and professional equipment up to USD 100,000

BFI EL SALVADOR NEWS

Additional operational experience:
Based on our direct experience applying this framework in real operations, we have successfully managed imports under each of these categories, always coordinating transparently with customs authorities and in full compliance with DGA declaration, valuation, and control procedures.
As active members of IAM, we believe in sharing clear, experience based information that supports our partners and helps protect their operation. In my role, I focus on explaining these processes in a practical and straight forward manner, ensuring agents understand not only what is permitted, but how to structure the operation correctly.
If you have a specific case or would like to review how this framework may apply to an upcoming shipment to El Salvador, I will be glad to assist you directly.

Warm regards,

The United States and El Salvador signed the Reciprocal Trade Agreement on January 29, 2026, which sets the framework for eliminating the 10% tariff on certain Salvadoran exports under CAFTA-DR. The agreement will enter into force once both countries complete their domestic legal procedures and notify each other in writing, a date that is expected to be announced soon by the governments.

The Port of La Unión has been reactivated as a strategic hub for      RO/RO cargo in El Salvador, specializing in the handling of vehicles and rolling equipment. Its modern infrastructure allows efficient reception of RO/RO vessels, helping to decongest Acajutla Port and positioning La Unión as a key alternative for automotive and project-related imports in the region.

As El Salvador continues to expand its infrastructure, the country is receiving large scale construction equipment, modular structures, and specialized machinery for major public and private projects. BFI specializes in handling project cargo and oversized shipments, providing door to door solutions for complex and high value operations.
