The Customs Agency (DGA) has announced that the traditional grace period this year is from Friday, 1 December 2023 to 15 January 2024. Only one “grace” will be applied per family and the total value must not exceed US$4,000.
Cars, firearms, raw materials, farm equipment, fuels, and oils are not included. Also, only one household appliance can be brought in, so a family cannot bring in five microwave ovens and three refrigerators.
There are requirements to take advantage of this facility. Persons who live overseas cannot have visited the country within the last six months. They must present invoices for the merchandise, and must provide a passport and other documents required by customs agents.
