01 · Executive Overview

Bring in project machinery or raw materials for export manufacturing with duty suspension, and move cargo via national Cabotage.

Read full technical service explanationExpand

Energy/industrial contractors and export-oriented manufacturing plants require customs regimes that do not penalize their cost structure. Full Cargo manages end-to-end Temporary Admission (AT) for machinery, rigs, technical equipment, or temporary events, and Temporary Admission for Inward Processing (ATP) for industries importing raw materials, packaging, or parts under duty suspension to process and export finished goods. We also coordinate permits and logistics for Cabotage to move domestic or cleared cargo between Venezuelan ports without regulatory friction.

Common Market Risk

What risk do we prevent in your operation?

Paying definitive import duties on machinery that will only operate temporarily on a project in Venezuela—or on imported inputs destined for processing and re-export—erodes the profitability of your industrial contract.

Full Cargo Express Solution

How we protect your investment and timelines

We structure your prior Temporary Admission (AT or ATP) permit before SENIAT and the corresponding customs bond to legally suspend import taxes, while managing maritime and inland Cabotage across Venezuelan ports.
