What Is Customs Appraisal and Why Is It Important for Your Imports?  

Customs appraisal is a mandatory step in the import process in Panama. It refers to the verification carried out by the National Customs Authority regarding the value, nature, quantity, and quality of the declared goods. This inspection may be documentary, physical, or both. Failure to provide accurate documentation or an incorrect declared value can result in delays, penalties, or even the retention of your cargo.

At Grupo Aduanero KAM, we provide expert guidance to ensure that the customs appraisal process is handled precisely, transparently, and in compliance with Panamanian regulations.
