Services
Comprehensive Advice on Foreign Trade
Our team of professionals handles all inquiries related to foreign trade, providing a tailored and personal service, which is a unique feature of our organization. We analyze each case in particular and offer advice on the following areas: Customs Activities, Calculation of Costs, Logistics, Interaction with Service Providers; Port, Tax and Bank-related matters, and other areas of interest related to importing.
For the purpose of improving and optimizing the conditions for the import activity, we carry out initiatives before different state bodies, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Worship, the Ministry of Production and Work, the Federal Administration of Public Revenues (AFIP), the General Directorate of Customs, the General Administration of Ports, or other organizations such as the National Administration of Drugs, Foods and Medical Devices (ANMAT) and the National Service for Health and Food Quality (SENASA), among others.
At CIRA we have created a service for the effective recovery of customs guarantees (covering every kind) that have been duly released by the General Directorate of Customs (DGA) or are undergoing internal customs procedures that have expired. The service encompasses everything from keeping the importer updated on the status and/or availability of such guarantees to taking specific actions to recover those documents on their behalf.
Our members have access to our databases with information on tariffs and taxes for all products and on import legislation.

International Relations
CIRA is an institution that has established relationships with the world’s most important commercial centers, embassies’ commercial offices and centers for national and international promotion. As a result of this activity, we receive detailed information about Commercial Missions coming to our country for us to spread the word as well as to contact companies that would like to establish new commercial relationships. Our member companies have direct contact with the missions.
Business roundtables with agendas planned well in advance. We devote efforts to promote meetings between Argentine and foreign companies, in order to generate new business and discover commercial opportunities in diverse markets worldwide.
Commercial Missions and Trade Fairs. We regularly organize business meetings with trade delegations from different markets that visit our country. We develop ongoing relationships with diplomatic representatives, what allows us to get detailed information in advance about visiting missions. We organize a series of meetings with our members.
