CUSTOM

WAREHOUSE (A220)

Sociedad Portuaria de Caldera A220 is the only Customs Warehouse at our Port Facilities for temporary storage of import and export cargo upon compliance with applicable documentation requirements.

X

In our facilities it is possible:

 • To have a space for customs officials to perform physical and documentary inspections.

 • The cargo can remain up to one year from its arrival until the payment of taxes

 • By having unrestricted access to the equipment at the Port of Caldera, it is possible to handle units with cargo that cannot be handled in external warehouses, saving time and costs for our customers.

 • Not having a platform is a strength since it is not necessary the use of a chassis for the transport and permanence of the containers in our warehouse, avoiding extra costs to our customers.

 • We have backup areas for container storage that our competitors do not have.

 • Additionally, we are land transporters.
