Exigences en Douane et Documentation
Imports from Colombie to the États-Unis benefit from the US–Colombie Trade Promotion Agreement (CTPA), which requires a certificate of origin to claim preferential duty rates. Standard required documents include: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, and CBP Form 7501 for formal entries. Agricultural products, especially fresh flowers and produce, require USDA/APHIS phytosanitary certificates and may be subject to CBP agricultural inspection at Miami or other entry ports. Food imports require FDA Prior Notice.
Informations Tarifaires Actuelles
Under the US–Colombie Trade Promotion Agreement (CTPA, effective May 2012), the majority of Colombian goods — including coffee, cut flowers, textiles, and many manufactured goods — enter the États-Unis duty-free. Coal and most mineral products also qualify. A certificate of origin prepared by the Colombian exporter is required to claim FTA benefits. Goods that do not meet CTPA rules of origin are assessed at standard MFN tariff rates. No Section 301 tariffs apply to Colombian goods.

Yes. The US–Colombie Trade Promotion Agreement (CTPA) has been in force since May 2012. It eliminated tariffs on the vast majority of Colombian goods, including coffee, flowers, textiles, apparel, and many manufactured products. A certificate of origin is required to claim preferential rates.
What are the main cargo types shipped from Colombie to the États-Unis?
Colombie's leading exports to the États-Unis include: cut flowers (Colombie supplies ~80% of US imported flowers), coffee, coal, crude oil and derivatives, bananas and fresh fruit, textiles and apparel, chemicals, and processed foods. Suaid Global has deep expertise in perishable air freight and FTA certificate preparation for these commodity types.
What documents are needed to import Colombian goods into the États-Unis?
Required documents include: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin (for FTA duty-free treatment), and CBP Form 7501. Agricultural and food goods require USDA phytosanitary certificates and FDA Prior Notice. Flowers require specific USDA/APHIS phytosanitary inspection at the port of entry.
How does the flower export process work from Colombie to the États-Unis?
Cut flowers are almost exclusively shipped by air from El Dorado Airport (Bogotá) to Miami International Airport, which has a dedicated flower handling facility. The process includes: pre-cooling and packing in Colombie, USDA phytosanitary inspection pre-export, air freight booking (typically 2–4 jours to Miami), USDA agricultural inspection on arrival, and cold-chain transfer to distribution. Suaid Global coordinates the entire chain from farm to US distribution center.

On the Caribbean coast, Cartagena is Colombie's primary container port with direct services to Miami, New York, and Houston.
