Overview

Why El Salvador asks for a legalised packing list

The packing list describes how a shipment is packed: number of packages, marks and numbers, dimensions and weights. Customs officers use it to inspect cargo, and chambers use it to support the certificate of origin. The exporter prepares the packing list on letterhead, showing packages, marks, net and gross weights for each item.

Customs brokers and banks in the Americas may ask for apostilled shipping documents for certain goods or payment terms.

In El Salvador, a legalised packing list is typically requested for physical inspection at customs; it is also used for supporting the certificate of origin and insurance and cargo claims.

A packing list issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. El Salvador accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

Process

The El Salvador process for an Indian packing list

  1. Share your document and buyer's checklist

    Send a scan of the packing list and any list your buyer or authority in El Salvador gave you. We confirm the route, timeline and an all-inclusive quote.

  2. Notarisation

    A notary in India verifies the signature on the packing list or certifies the copy, which is the first stamp in the chain.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies your company and signatory and stamps the packing list.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Back to you

    The finished packing list is returned by tracked courier, or collected from our New Ashok Nagar office, ready for use in El Salvador.

What to send us

  • Original packing list, signed and stamped
  • Certified Spanish translation, if the authority in El Salvador asks (we arrange it)
  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Matching commercial invoice and certificate of origin
  • Bill of lading or airway bill copy

Avoid rejection

  • Package counts and weights must match the bill of lading.
