Article 10, paragraph 4.3  
 
Members shall notify the Committee of the details of operation of the single window.  
 
The single window for foreign trade (VUCE) is a tool for the facilitation of foreign trade and is 
managed by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (MINCETUR) . It was created in 2006 by 
means of Supreme Decree No. 165-2006-MEF, and was made law through the first supplementary 
provision of Legislative Decree No. 1036.  
 
The VUCE is defined as a comprehensive system that enables parties involved in foreign trade and 
intern ational transport to electronically manage the procedures required by the competent 
authorities in accordance with the regulations in force, or requested by the parties in question, for 
goods transiting through or entering or exiting national territory.  
 
The tool became operational in 2010 and currently has three components : (a) Restricted goods 
(2010), (b) Origin (2013) and (c) Ports (2015) . Since entering into operation, it has had a positive 
impact on the foreign trade sector.  G/TFA/N/PER/3/Rev.1  
- 14 - 
   
The following procedures a re carried out as part of the three components of the VUCE:  
 
• Restricted goods component : Procedures to obtain the permits, certificates, licences 
and other authorizations required for the importation, exportation and transit of goods.  
• Origin component : Procedures related to the issuance of certificates of preferential 
origin.  
• Ports component : Administrative procedures linked to the arrival, stay and clearance 
of ships in maritime, river and lake ports in the Republic of Peru ; administrative 
procedures to ob tain, modify or renew operating licences, permits, authorizations and 
other certificates for the operation of enterprises providing port services ; and 
procedures related to compliance with the information requirements for transporters or 
their representati ves, port administrators and enterprises providing port services.  
Currently, MINCETUR is implementing a public investment project (with a budget of 
USD 61.9 million , comprising USD 20  million  in loans from the Inter -American Development Bank 
and USD  41.9 million in national counterpart funds), which will enable VUCE 2.0 to provide more 
services in the logistical chain, and will improve the processes and procedures carried out by 
supervisory bodies, and ensure comprehensive, simplified and predictable proces ses for foreign 
trade operators . This project is to be implemented over a period of five years and aims to increase 
competitiveness in the foreign trade sector.

Article 10, paragraph 6.2  
 
Each Member shall notify the Committee and publish its measures on the use of customs 
brokers.  
 
In accordance with the Peruvian legislation on customs brokers:  
 
• Customs brokers are persons authorized by the customs authority to c arry out customs 
clearance procedures . Owners, consignees or consigners of goods, official brokers 
(those representing a public body) and customs agents can be customs brokers.  
 
• Owners and consignees can manage the customs clearance of their goods directly , that 
is, they do not require a customs agent or authorization as an official broker : (1) for 
the importation of goods with a f.o.b. value not exceeding USD 2,000 ; (2) for the 
exportation of goods with a f.o.b. value not exceeding USD 5,000 ; and (3) when they 
provide security and meet the other requirements established in the Regulations to the 
Customs Law.  
 
• Furthermore, as from 2020, authorized economic operators will be able to carry out 
customs clearance procedures without the need to use the services o f a customs broker.  
It should be noted that the use of customs brokers, under domestic law, is regulated by the following 
legislation:  
 
• General Customs Law adopted through Legislative Decree No. 1053;  
• Regulations to the General Customs Law adopted through Supreme Decree 
No. 010-2009-EF; 
• List of penalties applicable to offences provided for in the General Customs Law, adopted 
through Supreme Decree No. 031-2009-EF; 
• Regulations governing the certification of authorized economic operators, adopted 
through Supr eme Decree No. 184-2016-EF; and 
• General procedure for the authorization of foreign trade operators, adopted through 
Resolution No. 10-2016-SUNAT/5F0000 . G/TFA/N/PER/3/Rev.1
