Step-by-step guide to the SEDI (Sistema de Importación) process for importing goods into Argentina.

What is SEDI?

SEDI (Sistema de Importación) is the electronic system used by Argentine customs (AFIP/DGI) to manage import declarations. All imports must be registered through SEDI before cargo arrives.

  • 1. Importer registration in AFIP/Malvinas system
  • 2. SEDI declaration filing (CUIT, HS code, value, origin)
  • 3. Automatic license verification (if applicable)
  • 4. Physical inspection (random or targeted)
  • 5. Duty and tax payment
  • 6. Cargo release
