PROSEC Program

At ST STRATEGO we have consolidated experience in the management and obtaining of the Sectoral Promotion Program (PROSEC), authorized by the Ministry of Economy, which allows companies producing certain goods to import various goods with a preferential tariff rate – or exemption, as the case may be – for their incorporation into specific production processes, provided that they are intended for the production of the products indicated in the corresponding decree. We have accompanied companies from different industrial sectors both in obtaining this program and in maintaining it over time.

Obtaining PROSEC authorization requires proving to the authority compliance with technical and operational requirements, as well as the correct tariff classification of the goods to be imported within the specific sectors and fractions contemplated by the decree. However, the initial authorization is only the first step: the correct use of the program requires maintaining an operation consistent with the authorized sector and products, since any deviation may lead to observations by the authority or the loss of the tariff benefits obtained.

For this reason, at ST STRATEGO we accompany our clients on two complementary fronts: on the one hand, in the process of obtaining the PROSEC authorization, from the feasibility analysis and the correct tariff classification of the goods, to the integration of the file and the attention to the requirements of the Ministry of Economy during its evaluation; and on the other hand, in the maintenance of the program, through the implementation of preventive audits and compliance programs that ensure the continuity and correct use of the tariff benefits obtained.

Our technical and institutional support

The cases presented below reflect favorable results obtained for our clients both in obtaining new authorizations from the PROSEC Program, as well as in their maintenance and operational continuity.

Our work processes are certified under the ISO 9001:2015 Standard, which guarantees our clients the rigorous, traceable and consistent handling of each file, from the initial document integration to the continuous monitoring of the program.

We also have proven experience in the public and private sectors, which allows us to understand the criteria and technical requirements that the authority applies both in the evaluation of new applications and in the review of already authorized companies, and with this, design strategies that anticipate risks before they materialize.

Below is documentary evidence of some of the cases of authorization and continuity of the PROSEC Program managed for our clients.
