Chemical compliance in El Salvador

Authority	MARN (Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources)
Seaports	Acajutla, La Unión
Airports	San Salvador (SAL)
Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Pharmaceutical products and raw materials for medicines are overseen by the DNM, which issues sanitary registrations and import authorisations. Controlled precursors need separate permits held by the importer. MARN covers environmental aspects of chemical handling. Customs clearance follows Central American (SIECA) rules, and dangerous goods must be packed and declared under IMDG or IATA. As the economy uses the US dollar, invoicing in USD avoids currency conversion. Confirm the DNM status of each raw material with your broker before booking freight.

Can you supply industrial chemicals on a scheduled delivery plan?

Yes. For regular consumption we can agree a call-off schedule, for example monthly or quarterly shipments against an annual volume. This lets us plan production and reserve consistent lots. Share your forecast, pack type and destination port, and we will propose shipment intervals and Incoterms that fit your storage capacity.

Do you offer samples before a bulk order of a specialty chemical?

For most products we can send a representative sample so your team can test it in the actual process, such as a dyeing trial, a resin cure or a fragrance blend. Samples go by courier with an SDS. Once approved, the bulk lot is matched to the sample specification and the COA confirms it.
