Single Central American Declaration (DUCA)

The Central American Single Declaration (DUCA) unites the three main customs declarations that protect trading between Central American countries.

The DUCA integrates the Central American Single Customs Form (FAUCA), which is used to conduct intra-regional trade of originating merchandise. Commonly known as DUT, the Declaration for International Land Customs Transit, is used for the international land transit of goods in Central America. Finally, the Goods Declaration, which is called DUA or DM, is used for trade with specific countries outside the region.

The DUCA has three modalities:

• The DUCA-F must be used to trade merchandise that originated in Central American.

• The DUCA-D must be used for the import or export of goods with countries outside Central America.

• The DUCA-T must be used for the transfer of goods under the international land transit regime.

The application of the DUCA entered into force in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama as of May 7, 2019.

This is a trade facilitation measure, which is the result of the efforts of the region’s customs services, as well as the Council of Ministers of Economic Integration. It constitutes a firm step towards strengthening Central American economic integration.

Q&A GENERAL ASKED QUESTIONS


 

WHAT IS OOG SERVICE?

OOG is the shipping terminology for out of gauge cargo service. Items are shipped on cellular ocean vessels, but instead of using the conventional six-sided container, this cargo will be loaded into a three-sided container, such as a 20’ or 40’ flat rack shipping container.

 

WHAT IS OOG (OUT OF GAUGE) CARGO?

Out of gauge cargo is any type of package that surpasses the dimensions of a standard six-sided container. These units are shipped on flat rack containers, which exceed the width, height, and, in some cases, even the length of the equipment.

 

WHAT IS LO/LO (LIFT ON/LIFT OFF) OR BREAKBULK SERVICE?

This is the service provided on Lo/Lo vessels, which are cargo ships that have their own built-in cranes used for the loading and unloading of the cargo. This allows any cargo to be lifted off the ground and onto the vessel and lifted off the vessel and onto the ground; therefore, this service is called LO/LO (Lift on/Lift off)

For high, heavy, or oversized pieces, steamship carriers might even construct a platform on top of all other containers. How do they do this? By accommodating 20’ or 40’ flat racks next to each other and by using as many as required. The port stevedoring will secure the oversize pieces onto this base. This allows these pieces to be transported properly and safely. There is still a risk involved; therefore, good cargo insurance must be requested, as well as the services of certified marine surveyors to guarantee the securing of the cargo.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO SHIP OOG (OUT OF GAUGE) CARGO TO THE COSTA RICA?

From 3000.00 to 5000.00, depending on the dimensions, weights, lifting points, and the country of origin.

 

WHAT IS A CELLULAR OCEAN VESSEL?

The cellular ocean vessel is a type of ocean vessel that’s fully specialized for container transportation. There are approximately 5,220 ocean cellular vessels worldwide in the service container transportation industry.

 

DO ALL CONTAINER CARRIERS OFFER OOG SERVICE?

No, only certain ocean carriers will take on the task of going through the extensive work of securing, monitoring, and balancing this very difficult cargo.
