«The trip has been magnificent and we are very happy to be in the Mexico market. We see Cubbo with a great partner because not only does it help us with 3pl in its fulfillment center, but also with something that we are super grateful for, which is the help we had on regulation, taxes and import issues and that is something that really helped us because we didn't know anything about the market. That gave us confidence and freedom to open a market without knowing it.” Being with Cubbo has facilitated our expansion in LATAM, shortening delivery times and reducing shipping costs »

What you need to know about IOR:

What is a Registry Importer (IOR)?

He is the one who assumes responsibility for the importation of products and guarantees compliance with all customs, tax and security regulations. Cubbo takes the role of IOR so that an eCommerce begins its international operation and can import to Mexico or Brazil without needing to have a legal entity in said countries.

Why use a IOR service vs. establish a legal entity?

A IOR service like the one offered by Cubbo takes care of everything: acts as a legal importer, manages procedures, pays taxes and ensures regulatory compliance so that your brand accesses the market faster; On the other hand, opening a local business requires a strong initial investment, time and greater responsibility for taxes and regulations.

What documents are required to operate with IOR?

Commercial invoice, packing list, transportation documents and certificates required depending on the product. We take responsibility for permits, licenses and customs registrations for importation.

What if my product requires special permits?

Cubbo will obtain the necessary authorizations from the competent authorities, such as COFEPRIS in Mexico or ANVISA in Brazil, so that businesses do not face any obstacles.

How long does the entire process take?

We can advise you depending on the product you want to sell. Learn about our import solutions and request personalized advice.
