Chemical compliance in Uruguay

|---|---|
| Seaports | Montevideo, Nueva Palmira, Fray Bentos |
| Airports | Montevideo Carrasco (MVD) |
| Dangerous goods | IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air |
Medicines and APIs need registration or an import authorisation from the Ministry of Public Health (MSP), so confirm the importer's status before a pharmaceutical order ships. Precursor chemicals require a prior import licence, which the buyer obtains and shares with us so the commercial documents match. If goods enter a free zone or the Montevideo free port for later distribution, tell us at quotation stage so the consignee and paperwork are set up correctly. Dangerous goods are packed and declared under IMDG or IATA rules. Preferential MERCOSUR duty depends on a valid India–MERCOSUR PTA certificate of origin.
