1. Measures aiming to Facilitate the = Cross-border Movement of Relief and Essential Supplies |
1.1. Instructions for the = simplified entry of goods that are declared by the health authority as crit= ical supplies to face the emergency caused by the Covid-19 disease are appr= oved: - Imports for which Customs has been informed by t=
he Health Authority that fall on goods destined by the importer for the pre=
vention and control of the Covid-19 disease, requiring their entry to the t=
erritory with preferential character. The document in which such circumstan=
ce is reported may consist of a corporate email from the professional desig=
nated for these purposes by the Health Authority, sent to the box emergencias@aduana.cl and it should be added as basic clearance document.=
p> - The importation will be carried out by the interested party be=
fore Customs or by a customs broker, authorizing the processing of an Impor=
t Declaration and Simultaneous Payment (DIPS Form F-17) or a DIPS Freight a=
nd Exemption, whether of a normal or advance process, regardless of the FOB=
value of the consignment. - This simplified processing =
does not exempt from the obligation to have the authorizations and endorsem=
ents required by the competent authorities, prior to the entry of the goods=
, unless such authorities have exempted the importer, all of which shall be=
accredited at the time of the removal of the goods. - I=
mports of supplies made by private entities that do not have the declaratio=
n of relief supplies by the Health Authority, may be eligible for facilitie=
s granted through the Exempt Resolution No. 1179/2020, for which they shall=
process the respective DIN (Entry Declaration) or DIPS (Entry Declaration =
and Simultaneous Payment) through a Customs Broker. - Re=
gional Customs Directorates and Customs Administrations shall take all the =
appropriate measures to assure both the agility in the processing of goods =
and their expedited release, safeguarding customs control through proper ri=
sk management. 1.2. For goods donated on th=
e occasion of the catastrophe, to the State, to natural or legal persons of=
public law or to private law foundations or corporations and to universiti=
es recognized by the State with a certification issued by the Ministry of t=
he Interior, the provisions of number 4.9.3 of the procedure contained in "=
Plan de Contingencia ante una declaraci=C3=B3n de cat=C3=A1strofe", approve=
d by Exempt Resolution No. 3041 of 26.04.2012, shall be applied. The contro=
l and supervision on imports covering donated goods will be safeguarded, si=
nce the provisions of Exempt Resolution No=C2=B0 2415 of 20.02.2014 of the =
Undersecretary of the Interior (Acting), which approve the =E2=
=80=9CManual de Procedimientos de la Utilizaci=C3=B3n de los R=
ecursos y los Bienes en caso de Emergencia o Cat=C3=A1strofe=
=E2=80=9D in accordance with the provisions of |
Chapter IV, number 3.1, also govern in = respect of them. Regarding donations, Law No. 16.282 of the Ministry of Fin= ance establishes Tax and Tariff Benefits, freeing imports of donated goods = from all kinds of taxes, duties, or other charges collected by Customs, as = well as freeing them from unloading/loading, movement, storage, complementa= ry operations fees or others. 1.3. A list o= f the tariff classification is provided in the National Customs Tariff of r= elief goods to face the health emergency of Covid-19, on a referential basi= s, based on information published by the World Customs Organization (WCO) a= nd an internal information collection. The specific classification will dep= end on the characteristics of each good and the application of the General = Rules for the Interpretation of the Tariff Nomenclature. 1.4. A tariff reduction list applicable to relief goods to fa= ce the health emergency of Covid-19, for each trade agreement signed by Chi= le, is made available to users. 1.5. Existi= ng instructions are systematized regarding the procedure to which imports o= f donations made in the event of a catastrophe or public calamity must be s= ubmitted in their processing before the National Customs Service. |
2. Measures aiming at Supporting the = Economy and Sustaining Supply Chain Continuity |

2.4. Consider that in the event of non= -compliances detected in respect to the term for which a private warehouse = regime has been granted, on the occasion of the effects of the viral outbre= ak of Covid-19, are sufficiently justified by a fortuitous case, so it is n= ot possible, by its virtue, the presumption of abandonment referred to in A= rticles 136 and |
subsequent of the Customs Ordinance of the goods in question.
2.5. Regarding private warehouses that have expired a= nd incurred a presumption of abandonment, Regional Directors or Customs Adm= inistrators may exempt or reduce them from the application of the surcharge= of article 154 of the Customs Ordinance, weighing each situation in its me= rit. This will not imply relieving those who incur in such breaches of the = other duties and responsibilities that they have to satisfy as beneficiarie= s of the above-mentioned regime.
2.6. It is provided that, as a very exceptional measu= re, in the case of imports and exports to and from China, regarding the mod= ifications that may take place as a result of the effects that may be cause= d in the respective process, due to the above- mentioned Coronavirus emerge= ncy, and after evaluating each case, the Customs - within the scope of thei= r competence- refrain from initiating the sanctioning procedures for regula= tory offences that would be applied in a regular situation, and they are ur= ged to grant the best facilities that may be appropriate to the fast and ex= peditious processing of such modifications.
