Bolivians who lived abroad and are resettling in the country can bring in their household goods under preferential treatment. The key requirement is proving residency abroad for the minimum period set by regulation.
PENDIENTE-VERIFICAR: período mínimo de residencia
The allowance covers used household goods: furniture, appliances, clothing, and home items. It doesn’t cover new merchandise in commercial quantities or vehicles, which follow their own regime.
PENDIENTE-VERIFICAR: monto y alcance vigentes
Valid passport, certificate of residency abroad, a valued and signed household inventory, and the sworn declaration. Our team reviews the full file before shipping to avoid issues at destination.
Your household goods must arrive within the time window counted from your return to the country. That’s why it’s best to coordinate the sea or air shipment together with your own trip — it’s the first thing we define in the quote.
PENDIENTE-VERIFICAR: ventana temporal exacta
Generic inventories ("box with various items"), undeclared new electronics, and residency certificates filed late. All three are solved with an upfront file review — included in our service.
Informational guidance — customs regulations change. This article will only be published once our team validates every detail with our own agency.
We’ll build the exact checklist for your case.
