What documents does Guyana require for air freight imports?+
Guyana requires the commercial invoice, packing list and air waybill, plus a certificate of origin for CARICOM treatment and any licence or concession letter. The importer needs a GRA Taxpayer Identification Number, and the importer or a GRA-registered broker lodges the eSAD in ASYCUDA World. CET duty and 14% VAT are paid online there. Food and drugs need GA-FDD approval. We prepare all three for you, and any permits restricted commodities need are confirmed when you quote.
Is it better to ship to Guyana by air or by ocean?+
Air into GEO fits cargo under about 1 CBM or operations-critical parts such as offshore consumables; LCL from Miami is cheapest from 1 to 15 CBM, and a 20ft FCL wins above 15 CBM. The IWF published LCL rate is about $1,005 for 5 CBM / 1,500 kg (September 2026), excluding duty and VAT. Combining vendors into one weekly shipment keeps it to one eSAD. Many clients combine both: tell us your deadline and we quote the best mix.
