Tariff reductions
Lower duties on eligible goods can improve landed costs and pricing. Reductions may be immediate or phased in, depending on the product.

UNDERSTANDING THE AGREEMENT
Two regions. A closer trading relationship.
The agreement links the European Union with Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. Its trade pillar aims to reduce barriers and make trade rules more predictable. The interim trade agreement has applied provisionally since 1 May 2026.
For businesses, it can improve access to customers and suppliers. The opportunity must be assessed by product and destination: tariff schedules, origin requirements and other entry rules still apply.

Better conditions. More routes to grow.
New procurement opportunities
Access to covered public tenders can open another sales channel. Eligibility depends on the entity, contract scope, thresholds and exclusions.
More predictable trade rules
Commitments on customs and technical barriers support planning. Product standards, sanitary rules and import requirements still need to be met.
Benefits are not automatic: tariff classification, preferential origin, phase-in schedules, quotas and safeguards must be checked for each operation.

Before you take the next step
Is every product already duty-free?
No. Treatment varies by tariff line, origin and date. Some goods follow transition periods, quotas or exclusions. We start with the specific product and destination.
Can a smaller business explore this opportunity?
Yes. A focused assessment can help prioritise one product and one market, considering supply capacity, documentation, margins and the right distribution channel.
What should I share in my inquiry?
Your product, country of origin, target market and objective. If available, include the HS/NCM code, indicative volumes and whether you need buyers, distributors or market-entry support.
