Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Pharmaceutical products and APIs generally need sanitary registration or import authorisation from MSPAS, through its department for the regulation and control of pharmaceutical products. Importers of precursor and controlled chemicals need prior licensing from the health ministry. Imports clear through SAT customs, with Central American customs harmonisation (SIECA) rules applying. MARN covers environmental aspects of chemical handling. Hazardous cargo must be packed and declared to IMDG or IATA rules. Your local broker can confirm which permits apply to each product before booking.

Questions

APIs for Guatemala

Can Zemixal deliver APIs to Guatemala?

Which documents come with a APIs shipment to Guatemala?
Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to MSPAS – Department of Regulation and Control of Pharmaceutical Products (DRCPFA) is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to Guatemala take?
Allow 35–50 days for ocean transit or 4–7 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.
What information should I include when requesting an API quotation?
State the molecule, required pharmacopoeia and edition, quantity, intended use and destination country. Mention any special needs such as micronised particle size, a specific polymorph or limits on residual solvents. If your regulator needs manufacturer documents, list them too, so we can confirm availability before pricing.
Can you supply small API samples for formulation trials?
Many APIs can be supplied in development quantities for pre-formulation and stability work. The available sample size depends on the manufacturer and on how the molecule is regulated. Share your project stage and the amount you need, and we will advise what can ship as a sample and what requires a full commercial order.
