Shipping to the Americas. With an office in Charleston.

From North to South America we ship by air and by sea from Brescia. In the United States we have an office with Dalè staff in Charleston, looking after customers and shipments on the ground.

The Americas

From Canada to Brazil.

The United States is one of our regular destinations, especially for the firearms industry; Canada, Mexico and Brazil complete the routes we handle most often on the continent. For each country we choose air, full container or groupage with you.

An office in Charleston

In the United States, an office with Dalè staff and partners we have worked with for 30 years: a direct contact on the other side of the ocean too.

By air

IATA cargo agents, with operational support at Milan Malpensa and Milan Linate, for urgent or high-value shipments to North and South America.

Containers and groupage

FCL full containers and LCL groupage to the United States, Canada, Mexico and Brazil, with pickup at your premises and transfer to the port of loading.

Firearms and ammunition

The United States is our hub for firearms: licensed storage in Brescia, escort to loading and delivery followed from Charleston, in compliance with the applicable authorisations.

Export customs in-house

Export declaration under simplified procedure at our warehouses in Brescia, as an Authorised Economic Operator (AEO).

Documents and customs

What you need to ship to the Americas.

United States

For sea shipments to the United States the importer must file the Importer Security Filing (ISF) before the goods are loaded on the vessel. On arrival we handle clearance and delivery with our Charleston office and the partners we have worked with for 30 years.

Canada and Mexico

With Canada the CETA agreement applies, with Mexico the 2000 EU-Mexico agreement, pending the entry into force of the updated agreement signed in May 2026: with the required proof of origin, goods of EU origin can enter at reduced or zero duty. In Mexico the importer must be on the importers' register.

Brazil and South America

In Brazil the importer must be authorised to import and the invoice must be detailed. Since 1 May 2026 the EU-Mercosur interim trade agreement has been provisionally applied, reducing or removing duties on many European products with the exporter's statement on origin: we check duties and required documents for the goods with the importer before departure. For other South American destinations we assess each shipment case by case.

Packaging and documents

Wooden packaging must comply with the ISPM 15 standard, required by the United States, Canada, Mexico and Brazil. We prepare compliant crates at our Brescia hub and check invoice, packing list and certificates before the goods leave.
