Guatemala: Customs Enforcement, or Non-tariff Trade Barrier?

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Guatemalan Customs (SAT) is detaining agricultural products in its newest wave of revaluation investigations. SAT detains these shipments for up to 25 days to perform its investigations, and companies must pay thousands of dollars in demurrage charges. If an importer accepts the SAT price, that price is added to the SAT price database, inflating the three-month average that is used as a reference price for future shipments.
