TY - NEWS TI - Visualización del proceso de nacionalización para mercancías contenerizadas en Colombia con registro o licencia de importación. Propuesta de optimización AU - López Orozco, Gloria Mercedes AU - Acosta Libreros, Julián Alberto AB - The present article defines and explains the custom clearance procedure for an import cargo in Colombia that requires import licensing. This research aims to determine optimization opportunities within its processes in order to reduce lead times as well as extra costs that are generated mainly from storage costs in the port terminals, sanctions or legal fines. For this current research, it was taken into account the respective laws that drive an import process, the different actors involved along the supply chain, and the real experience gather throughout many custom clearance processes made by the Customs Agency Colmas and feedback from its clients. As a result, it was possible to quantify import lead times for merchandises that require import licensing (24 days) and post BL release (9 days).
