America and Europe are two of the continents with the largest volume of commercial transactions between them every day. Because of the geographical barrier posed by the Atlantic Ocean, these shipments must be handled by air or sea transport.

Peru is a country that trades constantly with different European nations such as Spain, United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Romania, Portugal, and Holland, among others. Due to its geographical location, goods exported to Peru from European nations can be moved by land to the airport or port of departure, and then travel to America.

Once on the ship or plane, the goods will likely stop in an American country before continuing their journey, for example, at an airport in Mexico, the United States, Colombia, etc. If the goods are shipped in a container to Peru, they will have to cross the Panama Canal since the Peruvian coast is bordered by the Pacific Ocean.

These are issues that we must consider when exporting any type of goods from Peru to the Old Continent. In addition, it is important to know the tariffs and shipping requirements, both to Peru and in the country of origin. For this purpose, it is worth consulting the documents available at the Peruvian National Superintendence of Customs and Administration.

On the other hand, in Europe there are several legal requirements depending on the destination, as not all countries belong to the European Union, which has only one common regulation. The Peruvian cities which export most from Europe are:

• Lima
• Arequipa
• Callao
• Trujillo
• Chiclayo
• Piura
• Huancayo
• Cusco
• Iquitos
• Chimbote
