Customs bonded storage in Chile
Bonded warehouse in Chile authorized by Aduanas
A bonded warehouse in Chile is a facility authorized by the Servicio Nacional de Aduanas where imported goods are stored without paying duties up front. Interworld Freight operates an Almacén Particular Autorizado for importers, freight forwarders and customs brokers, with duty and 19% IVA deferral for up to 90 days.
The facility sits in the Región Metropolitana along Ruta 5, with fast access to San Antonio port, Valparaíso port and SCL airport, which reduces transit time and cost for bonded cargo. Construction follows NCh433, security is BASC-certified with 24/7 surveillance and controlled access, and our licensed customs brokers handle every Aduanas filing.
You pay duties only when goods enter Chilean commerce. Keeping capital free until the moment of sale or distribution is especially valuable for high-value electronics, machinery and pharmaceutical imports.

Almacén Particular or Zona Franca?
Both defer Chilean import duties, but they serve different purposes in the supply chain.

Your goods move relatively quickly: they wait for release, approvals or re-export within the bonded period.
Choose a Zona Franca if…
You need long-term positioning, a regional distribution hub or processing and assembly before release.
