You have to create and register an identity(Company) that the export will be done under.

Once you register you company with La Renta and get your RUC number, you must register your company with CETREX Centro De Tramites Para Exportacion specefying what you will be exporting, After that your company is ready to export, this takes time and money, All can be done for about $600-$800 USD, Attorney's cost included,it should not take longer than 2 months, eventhou we got ours in 2 weeks :-).

Hope that helps.

USDA?

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 4 July, 2006 - 14:09.

I have done that for 15 years; but, I really thought with that with food products that special permissions and special permisson with the USDA were needed if food products are to be exported to the USA (America).

Our seafood exports are regulated by the

USA Department of Commerce/NOAA.

Also, since 9/11; special permissions and regulations have been applied by the USDC/NOAA.

Export

First things first.

Once you register with CETREX, it is then that they will tell you what you will need in order for your desire product to enter the U.S.A, in our case the most sensitive documentation/Procedure it is our Agriculture Permit, better known as Fitosanitary compliance.

BTW Alan, while going through the CAFTA Manual, I read that Snook is now legal to export to the U.S.A. they allowed a quota

Correct & Incorrect

We could always export "snook" to the USA.

Florida laws prohibit the importation.

At one time, we could do it "under bond" and ship to another state and then Florida stopped that little move.

As far as I now know at this minute; all "Gulf Coast" states stopped the importation except for Mississippi and possibly Alabama.

I guess the states are moving back to "State's Rights" since Thurmond is dead and Trent Lott was demoted.

Another problem is under the new mis-labeling of fish and under-sized lobster laws in the USA (America); exportation of "snook" has just about ceased.

Texas still is thinking straight

Submitted by toms on 8 July, 2006 - 09:29.

as long as the Snook is doccumented, a legal export of Nicaragua, it can enter and be marketed as such in the Great State of Texas.

Exactly

Submitted by Pinolero2 on 8 July, 2006 - 10:46.

That is what Customs/CAFTA reffers to as "Point of Origin"

Point of Origin?

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 8 July, 2006 - 11:52.

OK - I'm Serious.

LFJW was talking about Texas. Nica can not transport by ship to Texas. From the Atlantic Coast; Nica can transport by ship to Miami. I know that snook can be flown into Texas.

I really don't understand the point of origin business.

I had this similiar problem in the shrimp business. The USA (America) government had offshore waters that controlled the fisheries. Florida did not care about the USA regulations. Florida established interior controls which diminished the USA offshore waters.

I wouldn't ship any snook into Florida for all the Extreme Cigars in this world.

If Florida can do what that want about electing a President of the USA (America); I wouldn't fight snook with them.

Snook can pass Florida

Submitted by toms on 8 July, 2006 - 14:29.

on the plane and clear customs in NY on the same airplane flite. Fla att´s office said there would be no problem with this.

I think the law is stupid and hurts Nicaragua because folks in NY dont know this fish like the SE does, but what the heck Devloping new markets will come about anyway.

Once those Yanks taste the Snook like MA´s wife Mari cooks it .... then coming the demand.

Shrimp

So, did you happen to be in the shrimp business with a fellow by the name of Forrest? Lt. Dan?

Naw!

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 8 July, 2006 - 11:59.

Lt. Dan & Forrest & Bubba's mama were over in Bayou La Batre, Alabama.

I was always in Biloxi, Mississippi.

So many rules

Submitted by Former NL Member on 5 July, 2006 - 15:12.

Don't you just love "free trade"?

Wouldn't free trade be defined as fewer rules, not more?

Moon Fish

Submitted by Bobby on 5 July, 2006 - 00:39.

During my college years in Florida we always went snook fishing. Great fish, great taste, and great fun to catch. Along with the snook there was a pancaked shaped fish they called a moon fish. Does that happen here in Nicalandia? It's kind of like the dophins swimming with tuna.

Pura Nica, Bobby

Not to give away my age (although it's in my bio) but we used to use live shrimp for bait back then. Now days people eat the bait.

At least from Nicaragua "Origin" it is allowed

Check for Florida Allowing

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 4 July, 2006 - 14:28.

I'm just eating all I can get and we never made any money with the "Snook" anyway.

I'm not fooling with exporting it.

Miskito Alan &#174

got you Alan!

Submitted by Pinolero2 on 4 July, 2006 - 14:30.

Once they allowe importation, NO STATE can be exempt, it is allowed nation wide, I just thought there be a good market for snook, since they are so plentifull. :-)

Serious Question

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 4 July, 2006 - 14:37.

If the importation into the USA (America) was legal before CAFTA;

How could the state of Florida prohibit that importation from Nicaragua?

If it was gonna affect one state, if wouldn't have been included in the agreedment, bureoucratic B.S I guesst. Our goverment at work Alan, that shouldn't surprise you.

"SR" Shot Down Again

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 4 July, 2006 - 14:34.

No problem.

Forget "State's Rights" again; nobody has thought about it since 1948 anyway.

Interesting Question

Submitted by Miskito Alan on 4 July, 2006 - 13:06.

Serious - I don't know and I don't think that subject has ever been considered here on NL that I remember.

Somewhat Joking: Lyin' Farmer John Wayne and I have never had to be concerned with exporting our farming in Puerto Cabezas because we always eat more okra, green beans, butterbeans, watermelon, and everything else than we can produce.

Now - If we could just find some of them "grits trees".
