Shipping Consumer Teches from Viracopos to Santiago via Air Freight

When shipping a TV, pack in an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in non-abrasive padding, and brace all voids so the unit cannot move. Transport the TV standing upright, clearly mark the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and minimize exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal components are moisture sensitive.

Yes, Audio equipment needs rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each audio device individually, bundle accessories in separate bags, and include desiccant packs for moisture control. For multiple units, ship on pallets with corner posts and stretch wrap to keep the load stable.

International shipments of Electronics typically involve a commercial invoice, packing list, and relevant export declarations. Clearly state product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value TVs, and the true transaction value to ensure smooth clearance. For certain audio equipment, verify if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

For moisture-sensitive Electronics, pack with moisture-barrier bags or sealed poly bags around each unit, place desiccant sachets inside the inner packaging, and close cartons tightly. On pallets of audio equipment, wrap with stretch film and, where possible, install pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.

Because Electronics like high-end audio equipment are high value and fragile, obtaining cargo insurance that matches their replacement cost is strongly recommended. Verify your carrier’s standard liability limits, list accurate values and serial numbers, and store packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged home theater systems can be processed efficiently.

The documentation typically required includes a commercial invoice, packing list, and any necessary certificates of origin or compliance specific to electronics. Additionally, customs declarations must be submitted to both Brazilian and Chilean authorities.
