Stop Wasting Time on Manual DIN Submissions

A real API connection. We are not a web form that copies and pastes. aduanasHQ has direct integration via an XML/REST API with SICEX of the Servicio Nacional de Aduanas de Chile.

How it works:

1. You enter data in aduanasHQ just once
2. P4 validates against SICEX rules and the Chilean Tariff Schedule before submitting
3. Click "Submit" → P4 transmits XML with electronic signature to SICEX
4. SICEX responds in 8-15 seconds with acceptance or rejection
5. P4 shows the result and generates the payment voucher

Benefit: No copy/paste, no logging into the SICEX portal, no data-entry errors, integrated electronic payment.

Chile has more than 30 active FTAs. aduanasHQ automatically manages tariff preferences.

Main FTAs supported:

• Pacific Alliance: Mexico, Colombia, Peru (0% tariff on most products)
• MERCOSUR: Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay
• Chile-USA: Preferential access to the U.S. market
• Chile-European Union: Association Agreement
• Chile-China: Expanded FTA, 2019
• CPTPP: Trans-Pacific Partnership (11 countries)

How it works in P4:

1. Select the product's country of origin
2. P4 automatically identifies the applicable FTA
3. Calculates the preferential tariff (reduced or 0%)
4. Generates fields for the digital certificate of origin
5. Applies the FTA's specific rules of origin

Result: Automatic use of preferences = significant savings on customs duties.

Yes, automatic and accurate calculation. P4 knows the Chilean customs valuation methodology.

Calculation process:

1. CIF value: Cost + Insurance + Freight (commercial invoice + policy + B/L)
2. Currency conversion: Day's exchange rate per SNA (updated daily)
3. Customs duties: Applied per the Chilean Tariff Schedule (ad valorem or specific)
4. 19% VAT: Applied to (CIF value + Duties)
5. Other levies: Specific taxes where applicable (alcohol, tobacco, etc.)

With an active FTA:

• Reduced or 0% duties depending on the preference
• 19% VAT always applies (it is not covered by FTAs)

Validation: P4 verifies that the calculations match what SICEX expects before submitting.

Benefit: Zero rejections from calculation errors, electronic payment generated automatically.
