Argentinian customs requires a CUIT/CUIL to be provided for each shipment. If you are shipping to Argentina, please enter the CUIT/CUIL of in the Tax ID field at checkout. If the customer is not an Argentinian citizen, please enter their passport number in the Tax ID field. Argentinian customs will not allow the import if this information is missing, and your shipment may be returned at your expense.

Completing Form 4550

Argentinian customs will provide you with a “number particular” or import number when your shipment reaches Argentina. You will then need to go to the AFIP website to complete the online Form 4550/T-Compras a proveedores del exterior. Your carrier will deliver an “Aviso 3579” notification letter to the consignee which provides instructions on this new process. Please check with Argentinian customs to be sure the consignee has a CUIT/CUIL with an AFIP access level of 2 or greater.
