Are you looking to bring your beverages into Mexico? Whether you’re brewing beer, creating liquor, or making cold brew coffee, Mexico offers a huge market for great quality beverages. With a young population and a rise in microbreweries, liquor stores, and cafes, the country is open for trading. But where do you begin?
How to Import Beverages into Mexico!
To import beverages into Mexico, follow these steps:
- Choose the type of beverage you want to export and obtain a classification code from the Harmonized Systems Committee (HSC). Submit a photo and list of ingredients for approval.
- Consider forming a company in Mexico to save time and money.
- Check the tax authority (Padron de Importadores) for import authorization and tax information.
- Arrange shipping for your beverages and insure the containers.
- Upon arrival, work with a customs broker to ensure proper verification, payment of import costs, and receipt of authority to clear customs.
- Complete customs clearance and arrange for distribution in Mexico.
For distributing your beverages, consider forming a company and using a storage area in Mexico, or go through a third party for a slightly higher cost.
