Guatemala: FAIRS Country Report

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The Government of Guatemala is accepting the new FDA export certificates, but continues accepting Certificates of Free Sale issued by states to register processed food products with the Ministry of Health. Certificates of Free Sale issued by Chambers of Commerce are accepted, if and only if State authorities have officially notified they are no longer issuing the certificates. The Customs Authority (SAT) requires a “transshipment letter” issued to the shipping company by the Port Authority, where the transshipment took place to clear customs.
