Callao, Peru - August 19, 2026 - Cargo World Peru, a full-service customs brokerage and international freight forwarding agency headquartered in Callao, announces the comprehensive scope of its air and maritime customs agency operations across Peru. Serving importers and exporters through both air and sea channels, the agency provides end-to-end customs support — from initial documentation through SUNAT clearance and final cargo release — with direct coordination at the Jorge Chávez International Airport and five of Peru’s most active seaports: Callao, Paita, Chancay, Pisco, and Tacna.

The Role of Customs Brokerage in Peru’s Supply Chain
Customs brokerage is the link between a cargo’s arrival at a Peruvian port or airport and its release for distribution or use in the market. Without a correctly filed customs declaration (DAM) before SUNAT, cargo cannot leave the terminal — generating storage costs, penalties, and supply chain delays that compound with every day the shipment remains held.
Cargo World Peru’s customs brokerage service is designed for importers and exporters who require precise document management, proactive SUNAT coordination, and direct integration with the freight side of their operation — so that customs clearance and cargo logistics advance as a single, uninterrupted process.
Air Customs: Speed and Precision at Jorge Chávez Airport
Air customs operations at Lima’s Jorge Chávez International Airport demand rapid coordination between documentation preparation, short transit windows, and real-time SUNAT channel management. Cargo World Peru handles the full air customs cycle for both inbound and outbound shipments, covering:
- Air import customs clearance — DAM filing and SUNAT channel coordination for inbound air cargo
- Air export customs clearance — Export declaration and documentation management for outbound shipments
- High-value, low-weight cargo — Electronics, precision instruments, and luxury goods
- Urgent and critical shipments — Spare parts, medical equipment, and pharmaceuticals with 5–12 hour transit windows
- Samples and legal documents — Commercial samples, prototypes, and documents with legal or commercial value
- Jorge Chávez Airport coordination — Direct articulation with air cargo warehouses and the Lima Air Customs Authority
Maritime Customs: Volume, Planning, and Port Coordination
Maritime customs operations represent the largest share of Peru’s foreign trade volume and require greater advance planning, thorough document preparation, and close coordination with port terminal operators. Cargo World Peru manages maritime customs clearance across all major Peruvian seaports, covering:
- FCL customs clearance — Full container load import and export declarations at Callao and national ports
- LCL customs clearance — Consolidated cargo declarations for less-than-container-load shipments
- Maritime export declarations — Export DAM management and certificate of origin coordination
- Project and OOG cargo — Customs clearance for oversized, heavy-lift, and out-of-gauge shipments
- Special customs regimes — Temporary admission, re-importation, and special-regime declarations as applicable
- Port terminal coordination — Direct coordination with terminals at Callao, Paita, Chancay, Pisco, and Tacna
The Five-Step Customs Clearance Process Before SUNAT
Whether by air or sea, every customs clearance operation at Cargo World Peru follows a structured five-step process designed to minimize dwell time and prevent avoidable costs at the terminal:
- Step 1 — Documentation: Commercial invoice, Bill of Lading or AWB, packing list, certificates of origin, and supplementary documents
- Step 2 — DAM Filing: Electronic transmission of the Customs Declaration (DAM) to SUNAT via the SIGAD system
- Step 3 — SUNAT Channel: Green (automatic release), orange (documentary review), or red (physical inspection) — managed directly by Cargo World Peru on the ground
- Step 4 — Levante: Authorization from SUNAT for cargo release, following duty and tax payment and channel resolution
- Step 5 — Delivery: Cargo retrieval from the port or airport terminal and coordination of ground transport to the final destination
Choosing Between Air and Maritime Customs
The right channel depends on the nature of the cargo, the urgency of the operation, volume, route, and specific documentary requirements. Cargo World Peru evaluates each case and recommends the most appropriate customs approach:
- Air customs preferred when: transit time is critical (5–12 hours), cargo is high-value and low-weight, or the shipment involves urgent spare parts, medical equipment, or legal documents
- Maritime customs preferred when: the shipment is planned in advance, involves FCL or LCL containers, includes machinery or project cargo, or consists of raw materials, retail goods, agro-exports, or mining concentrates
Operational Coverage: 5 Ports and the Lima Air Customs
Cargo World Peru maintains direct operational presence at Peru’s principal customs facilities, ensuring that each client’s cargo is managed at the correct entry or exit point with local coordination at every stage:
- Port of Callao — Headquarters and primary hub; Peru’s #1 container terminal; FCL, LCL, break-bulk, and project cargo
- Port of Paita — Northern Peru; primary agro-export terminal for fresh produce and fish products
- Port of Chancay — Peru’s new deepwater megaport with direct routes to Asia; operational since late 2024
- Port of Pisco — Southern Peru; San Martín Terminal serving the south-central productive corridor
- Port of Tacna — Southern border; ZOFRATACNA free zone with special customs regimes
- Jorge Chávez International Airport / Lima Air Customs — Peru’s only major international air cargo hub; all air import and export operations
Integration with Cargo Logistics
What sets Cargo World Peru apart from standalone customs brokers is the direct integration of its customs service with its cargo agency operations. Rather than managing customs and freight through separate providers — a structure that frequently introduces communication gaps, documentation delays, and uncoordinated terminal actions — Cargo World Peru articulates both services under a single coordination from its Callao headquarters.
This integration means that the arrival of the cargo at the terminal and the preparation of the customs declaration advance in parallel, not sequentially — reducing dwell time, preventing storage cost accumulation, and giving clients real-time visibility into both the logistics and customs status of their shipment.
What Clients Say
“Excellent customs coordination and very clear communication at every stage of the clearance process.” — Giancarlo Matos, verified Google review.
“Very good attention and agile response to SUNAT observations during the customs clearance.” — Gianina Pariona Ccoillar, verified Google review.
Client feedback consistently highlights three strengths: document order from the start of the operation, direct and transparent communication throughout the SUNAT channel process, and responsive handling of observations or additional requirements.
