With aduanasHQ + Siscomex

How it actually works

  • Step 1: Enter data once in aduanasHQ
  • Step 2: P4 validates against Siscomex rules (before submitting)
  • Step 3: Click "Submit" → Automatic transmission via API
  • Step 4: Siscomex responds in 8-15 seconds (accepted/rejected)
  • Step 5: P4 shows status in real time
Result: 9 minutes on average per DUIMP vs. 52 minutes manually

Manual Process (Portal Único)

What you do today

  • Log in to Portal Único (with a digital certificate)
  • Copy invoice/packing list data manually
  • Look up NCM codes one by one
  • Wait for validation (can take minutes if Siscomex is slow)
  • If there is an error: go back, fix it, resubmit
  • Review each declaration individually for its status
Problems: Typing errors, rejected declarations, time lost waiting on Siscomex
