Customs Operations Return to the Center of the Logistics Debate After Regulatory Changes – Todo Logística News

Customs operations have returned to the center of the logistics agenda following the publication of General Resolution 5819/2026, which amends the annex to the current regulations on sample extraction and merchandise analysis to streamline technical procedures that often become bottlenecks in foreign trade; since verification stages can delay the release of shipments, impacting operational planning, delivery times, and inventory management, the resolution introduces mechanisms to reduce unproductive time — such as shorter deadlines, prior testing, and the introduction of the withdrawal option — benefiting sectors like industrial inputs, chemicals, food, pharmaceuticals, and complex manufacturing, where any technical delay affects the entire supply chain.
