Professional Camera is generally allowed for personal-use carriage into Uruguay.

Details

Professional Camera is generally allowed for personal-use carriage into Uruguay. Dirección Nacional de Aduanas treats single-unit personal effects as routine; no declaration required unless quantities suggest commercial intent (typically 5+ identical units). Pacific Alliance / Mercosur / CAFTA-DR / USMCA / Andean Community preferential treatment for member-state goods. Personal-import duty-free threshold is 200 USD; carriage above the threshold attracts duty + 22% VAT.

Practical advice

Walk the Green Channel for single-unit personal effects. For multiple units or high-value items, declare at Red Channel + present purchase receipts. Dirección Nacional de Aduanas publishes the current personal-allowance schedule at https://www.aduanas.gub.uy/.
