Do I need an Import/Export License?

**leoworkshopp** · 10-25-2009 11:40 AM

I have an uncle in Argentina, and stuff there is going quick. I sent cameras, phones and video game systems, they sold for 3 times the price... But I sent these things threw a family member that went to see the family.

I now am trying to find a way to start exporting over there, but I dont know where to go with that, because sending one thing at a time cost about 40-80 dollars in shipping, so I dont know what to do.. I am in the US, and I know it will cost me alot to send products over there, any information on what i should do? How I can get this done?

I heard I can get a Exporting License, but what does that consist of? how do I get it?

Thanks for the help!

You do not need any license. Just use a freight forwarder. If you cannot decide on one, start with FedEx or UPS freight services.

Hello, I´m based in Buenos Aires Argentina, imports are more expensive formal, if the goods are shipped by a carrier or freight service is almost certain that the coustoms will retain the merchandise and your recipient will be obliged to pay high taxes to releasing them.
