Import service from China to Chile for companies

China is Chile's top trading partner. Importing well from Asia is a real edge for your margin, if the process is set up right. SICE coordinates it for you end to end.

China is Chile's main trading partner: in 2025 it accounted for 32.7% of the country's trade, worth US$65,332 million (SUBREI). For your company that is a real advantage, if the process is well set up. A missing certificate or a wrong classification, and that advantage evaporates into costs.

SICE coordinates your import from China end to end: you choose the mode (FCL, LCL or consolidated), we handle route, insurance and clearance leveraging the Chile-China FTA, and your cargo reaches your warehouse. A single point of contact, available over WhatsApp.

What we coordinate

  • Freight from Asia in FCL, LCL and consolidated cargo (Shanghai, Ningbo, Shenzhen, Qingdao).
  • Applying the Chile-China FTA: we coordinate the certificate of origin (Form F) so it activates the 0% tariff.
  • Customs clearance included: licensed broker, classification and DIN.
  • Cargo insurance and domestic transport to your warehouse.

Frequently asked questions

Most manufactured goods do, but only with the Form F certificate of origin. Without it, you pay the general 6% even if you're entitled to the exemption.

Yes. The FTA affects the tariff (it can drop to 0%), but the 19% import VAT is still paid (and it's recoverable if your company files VAT).

What our clients say

Importamos vasos para café desde China y fue la primera vez que supe el costo total antes de pagarle al proveedor. Patricia revisó los documentos del proveedor, coordinó el flete, el seguro y la aduana, y la carga llegó a nuestra bodega en Viña del Mar sin cobros sorpresa. Un solo contacto para todo, y responde el mismo día por WhatsApp. Muy recomendable para pymes.

Importamos encendedores y no es fácil encontrar quien los mueva, varios forwarders nos dijeron que no. Acá la tomaron sin problema, sabían qué documentos pedir y con qué bodega coordinar. Llevamos ocho embarques con ellos y ninguno ha tenido problemas

Nos llegó un contenedor de muebles de terraza antes de temporada y no teníamos para pagar todos los impuestos de una. Nos recomendaron hacer almacén particular, que no lo conocíamos, y fuimos sacando la mercadería por partes.

Trabajamos con ellos desde 2015, sobre todo camiones desde Argentina. Hablamos siempre con la misma persona y conoce nuestra operación. Cumplen los plazos.
